Quessenberry, former recipe developer and food stylist for , and Schlosberg (coauthor, ) offer dishes to bring to a new mom, a sick friend, a book club meeting, and more. Recipes in the "Bringing Home Baby" chapter include nutritious, high-energy dishes for exhausted new parents, such as Cranberry Granola Bars and Hearty Minestrone Soup with Potato Gnocchi. "Get Well Soon," on the other hand, features recipes that freeze well and incorporate immune-boosting ingredients, like Turkey and Dill Meatloaf and Zucchini-Orange Bread. This distinctive approach that highlights the communality of cooking is highly recommended. [The authors have launched a companion blog with additional recipes, thegoodneighborcookbook.com.—Ed.]
