Milk Street: Tuesday Nights Mediterranean

This is one of my personal, go-to weeknight cookbooks—the one that has genuinely changed the way I approach cooking on busy evenings. Quick, deeply flavorful recipes that still feel nourishing and grounded in the wisdom of the Mediterranean kitchen.

The Mediterranean diet is so much more than olive oil and bright vegetables or its well-deserved reputation for health. It’s a tapestry of traditions from Southern Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East—food that’s direct, simple, and honest, served without unnecessary fuss. And that’s exactly what Tuesday Nights delivers: big, generous flavor without long hours in the kitchen.

Inside are 125 dinners ready in under 45 minutes (many in just 20), including favorites like:
• Chicken alla Diavola with Broccoli
• Crispy Pasta with Chickpeas, Lemon, and Parsley
• Fennel-Steamed Salmon with Olive and Caper Vinaigrette
• Shrimp with Orzo, Tomatoes, and Feta
• Panzanella with Fresh Mozzarella
• Green Shakshuka
• Flank Steak with Tomato–Eggplant Ragu

Chapters are organized by speed—Fast, Faster, Fastest—or by themes like hearty vegetable mains, supper soups, and flat-and-folded favorites (think pizza, flatbreads, pita sandwiches, and panini).

A true companion for anyone who wants dinner to feel inspiring again, even on the most ordinary Tuesday night.
