Make It, Don't Buy It

Recipes So Good You'll Never Eat Out Again

Make better food, spend less, and rediscover the joy of cooking

Have you ever been shocked by the price of a fancy blended drink or wondered if you could make a better, less expensive version of your favorite takeout salad at home? Often, the answer is yes, you can—and Matt Remoroza will show you how.

Make It Don’t Buy It invites you to stop ordering takeout and try your hand at making your favorite store-bought foods from scratch, with over 100 recipes for dishes that taste better and often cost less than their overpriced restaurant counterparts. This unique cookbook draws on a variety of cuisines to satisfy every craving. Enjoy comforting breakfasts (Biscuits and Sausage Gravy), riffs on chicken and rice (Teriyaki Chicken, Halal Cart Chicken), and slow-cooked comfort food (Dipped Italian Beef, Easy Carnitas), as well as satisfying beverages (Iced Mango Matcha Latte) and impressive desserts (Basque Cheesecake). Matt breaks down the ingredients, tools, and techniques you’ll need to discover for yourself how simple it can be to make restaurant-worthy meals at home.

You’ll be inspired to cook more, eat out less, and make meals in your kitchen that are tastier than anything you'll find on a delivery app or in the frozen aisle in a grocery store.
