My grandparents, who came to the U.S. from northern Mexico when they were in their teens, had built themselves a lovely manifestation of the American dream: their own business, a little ranch house a few blocks from the beach, a rotating cast of cool vintage cars. When my brother and I arrived, we moved aside the embroidered doilies and china figurines of the apostles, ran in and out of the house sloughing beach sand all over the floors, and left our bikes strewn across the small road out back. And whenever we needed a second to breathe, we ate... Read Alejandra Borunda's whole story about cooking with her abuela, and get Nopalito's fresh and herby salsa cruda recipe.

This is the second book from Anna Jones, who we consider the queen of vegetarian cooking. Her first, A Modern Way to Eat, specialised in simple yet delicious meals, all made without meat. A Modern Way to Cook continues in this vein, but introduces slightly more adventurous dishes and unusual flavour pairings.

Consider this sizeable book a gluten-free bible. It packs in as many as 350 gluten-free recipes from all around the world. In this way, it shows how easy and varied it can be to eat a diet that's naturally gluten-free, without having to rely on substitutions. There's enough recipes to keep you cooking all year round, including summer rolls, cornbread, steak with chimichurri sauce, curry, pavlova and lots more.

Salads can be a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables, grains, protein and fats. However, when not done right they can be a little lacklustre and leave you feeling hungry.

They knew they were on to something and pulled together a book of their famous protein-rich, vitamin-packed salad recipes, all made with meat, fish or cheese. Ideal for anyone looking to fuel up before or after a workout.

Chapters are split into morning bowls, side bowls, big bowls, sweet bowls and there's a section on dressings and sauces. The recipes are easy to follow and truly delicious. We found it impossible to pick a favourite but we especially love the soba noodle salad with veg and maple tofu, the roasted mushrooms with tahini kale slaw and the easy chickpea salad.

You may remember Chetna from her time on The Great British Bake Off or her first best-selling cookbook, Chai, Chaat and Chutney. Either way, you'll be seriously impressed by her latest offering.
