Food52 Simply Genius by Kristen Miglore

I've liked several of the Food 52 cookbooks, but I didn't love this one. The subtitle is "recipes for beginners, busy cooks & curious people" but I didn't find many recipes I wanted to try. I did like that there were lots of good pictures and some pages with specific tips. I also liked that there were notes of other ways to use some of the recipes - like other ways to use the protein or other sides that would work with that dish/recipe. To me other than the tips, it didn't seem like it was really for beginning cooks either. Overall, I wasn't too impressed with this one.
