A new approach to cooking for neurodivergent brains and beyond

Catherine Smart was diagnosed with ADHD as a child, and she recognized her busy brain as a superpower long before it was cool. After all, ADHDers thrive in the kitchen, which scratches the itch for novelty, creativity, and excitement.

But, for a busy brain, planning ahead, shopping for ingredients, and following multi-step directions can also be a tall order. As can following non-essential directions (do you really need a full mis-en-place?) That’s why this book is designed to be as distraction-free as possible with instructions for what to actually do first, clear and concise directions on ingredient prep, and ideas to keep the process fun.

In Not From Concentrate, stay on track as you "throw together" Smash Burgers with Dijon Pickle Sauce, whip up Jammy Egg Pita Pockets for lunch, and serve up a Creamy Butternut Pasta Bake at your next party.
