Publisher Description
Country icon, bestselling author, and living legend Willie Nelson pairs his gift for storytelling and herbal remedies with his wife Annie’s passion for home cooked meals in this cookbook of cannabis-infused delicacies.
In the Nelson family’s first ever cookbook, we’re cooking with good vibes only. Drawn from their favorite meals on nationwide tours, at the ranch, at home, and in their favorite cities along the way, these recipes have stories to tell—and what better way to enjoy a good meal than with a high-flying tale and a relaxing buzz?
Each recipe provides a cannabis kick to ease the mind as much as the body, making their cookbook an exciting, comforting, and lively way to dive into their story, as they draw from meals shared with family, friends, and fans alike.
The recipes themselves are delicious and easy to make at home. Buffalo wings, chocolate cake, fried chicken. Only the good stuff. And it includes an additional chapter providing a full suite of cannabis-infused base ingredients—cannabutter, finishing oil, simply syrups, sugars, salts, and tinctures.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Country music star and longtime marijuana advocate Nelson (Energy Follows Thought) teams up with wife Annie for a charming collection of hearty, cannabis-infused dishes that goes well beyond the brownies and cookies readers might expect. Novices to cannabis cooking will find an approachable introduction with helpful dosage guidelines leading into a diverse array of hippie-ish grub—both homestyle (kale soup with sun-dried tomatoes) and elevated (vegan carrot lox)—that will tempt palates whether or not the THC is included. The recipes could be better organized, with chapter names like "Food and Fun" giving little indication as to their contents, and freewheeling sequencing that places squid ink paella directly after bourbon pecan bars. More successful is the Nelsons' singular storytelling, which provides a vibrant through line as they share culinary memories, alternately hilarious and sentimental. In an introduction to a group of pork recipes, for example, Willie writes, "Somewhere in the lost years of the sixties, I fashioned myself a pig farmer. It was in the middle of a harsh winter when I bought seventeen weaner pigs for a quarter a pound and, genius that I am, wound up selling them six months later for seventeen cents a pound." Fans of the songwriter will find much to savor in this feel-good offering.
