From Pick-Me-Up Blueberry Pie to Throw Your Diet Out the Window Twice-Baked Potatoes, I Wanna Be Curled Up On the Couch With the Cats Stuffed Meatloaf to I Need A Hug Braised Chicken Thighs, this warming, judgment-free collection of 150 mouthwatering recipes from the stars of the Corona Kitchen proves that a good meal heals all.

The stars of the hit sensation Corona Kitchen know that good food and good stories are like a warm, healing hug, and we could all use one right now. Add seasoning, a dash of hilarious (and relatable) personal anecdotes, and the troubles of the day-pandemics and politics to name a few - seem to fade.

Outspoken television pros Lisa Lucas and Debrianna Mansini shared their kitchens, hearts, anxieties, and good humour, and broadcast their culinary adventures during the Covid-19 lockdown and the dark days that followed, and in the process connected with a hungry audience that spans the globe. Here they share their most beloved dishes along with never-before-shared creations and the top-voted dishes of members of the Corona Kitchen community, and the result is a colourful cookbook and cathartic read all in one.

This quirky, hands-on volume features original recipes for all meals of the days, plus snacks, side dishes, cocktails and mocktails, and options for vegans, vegetarians, gluten-free, and dairy-free diets. It will meet you where you are, no matter if you are stressed, sad, thriving, or nostalgic, and in the spirit of spontaneity, resourcefulness, and all things unscripted, all you have to bring to the table is yourself.
