“Going beyond lighter versions of beignets and pimiento cheese, Charleston blogger and author McDuffie delivers innovation in the form of unlikely foodstuffs paired with traditional down-home dishes.”—Booklist
With a fresh take on Southern-style cooking and rooted firmly in the notion that great Southern food doesn’t have to be heavy or unhealthy, this book for the modern home cook has more than 100 recipes for simple Southern food, reimagined and made with less.
This is a hassle-free, lighter take on Southern cooking that proves the notion less can so often be more. By reimagining beloved Southern classics and viewing them through a more health- and lifestyle-conscious lens, Lauren McDuffie’s Southern Lights: Easier, Lighter, and Better-for-You Recipes From the South explores ways to make Southern cooking more accessible without sacrificing flavor or quality.
