An invitation to revel in the joy of food and fresh air, this beautiful cookbook meets you wherever you want to go-whether that's an all day hike or just as far as your patio. 
When we're outdoors, we can gather other people; we can gather our thoughts and recenter ourselves; we can definitely gather good things to eat. From grilling and picnics to après-ski, backyard cookouts, and outdoor entertaining for every season-Gathering Outside is an ode to the joy of gathering friends, family, or sometimes just gathering yourself outside. 
Featuring a selection of bright, comforting vegetarian recipes-Sweet Corn and Poblano Pasta Salad, Charred Broccoli with Whipped Tahini, Caesar Pizza, Tandoori-Spiced Tofu, and Blackberry Ricotta Cake among them-the first set of recipes is for explorers. How can you have a beautiful, delicious meal packed in a backpack to pull out mid-bike ride, or what do you bring in a brown bag breakfast to eat on a paddle board? Learn how to prepare a feast on live fire with a decked out camp kitchen, or how to prep and pack for eating lunch inside your car while on a road trip. And for the homebodies who just want a little fresh air, a pizza party on the patio or a garden brunch await, with recipes, tips, and tricks to perfect the indoor-outdoor lifestyle. 
With gorgeous scene-setting landscape images of her northern California travels, and step-by-step illustrations to pull you through the technical elements, Gathering Outside is the outdoor cooking and entertaining book that does it all.
