PRAISE FOR WELL SEASONED

“Mary welcomes us back into her kitchen with heart, and her immense love of food and cooking. Well Seasoned beautifully reflects the dishes Mary shares with her family and friends. It is packed with thoughtful, comforting, delicious recipes that will become your favorites instantly!”
—CHEF LYNN CRAWFORD

“Mary’s recipes exude her effortless charm and pure joy in the kitchen, while paying tribute to the fresh, exciting ingredients from each turn of the calendar. Well Seasoned has you covered for every occasion, craving and celebration throughout the year.”
—ZOË FRANÇOIS, author of Zoë Bakes Cakes and Magnolia Network TV host

“Mary’s personality shines through this work to transform how we view cooking for ourselves and our friends and family. She makes world-class meals achievable at home with this collection of approachable recipes for any occasion or season.”
—ARLENE DICKINSON

“This is a pretty epic recipe collection, inspired by all that affects our appetites: moods, cravings, seasons and the people around our tables. Well Seasoned covers every course and occasion, with accessible yet aspirational recipes that Mary calls into service to feed herself and her family on the regular. Like her, the book is fun and the dishes are a bit unexpected – think strawberries and rhubarb inverted into a tarte tatin, or a handful of sour-cream-and-onion chips crushed over new potato salad.”
