I am so excited to finally share our first cookbook with you! Somebody pinch me!! It’s hard to believe it’s out in the world and a three-week New York Times Best-Selling Cookbook. Writing this book has been one of the hardest, most exciting, and fun things I’ve ever done, and I’m thrilled to share it with you.

Where to Buy
The book is available online and in stores:
P.S. I have this vivid memory of getting a chocolate candy bar in grade school and saving it so I could share it with my 4 sisters at home. That’s how I feel about the recipes in this cookbook – I finally get to share them with you, the Natasha’s Kitchen community that I love so much. Thank you for your support and for inspiring me to bring this cookbook to life. You must know, it was created FOR YOU!
About Natasha’s Kitchen Cookbook
- National Best Seller – 3 Weeks on the New York Times List, Wall Street Journal, Publishers Weekly Barnes and Noble Top Books, and Amazon Best-Seller.
- 100+ Recipes – I think it’s about 110 to be exact, most of which are brand new and truly some of my best recipes. These include everything from breakfasts, soups, salads, main courses, exciting sides, and desserts.
- Entertaining Ideas – we have a whole chapter devoted to easy hosting with brilliant recipes and tips to inspire hospitality.
- Tested by hundreds of volunteers – Every recipe was tested by 5 or more cooks from our cookbook testing community of 315 people (with all skill levels; from home cooks to professional chefs).
- Gorgeous photos – every recipe was beautifully photographed (because I can’t handle cookbooks without pictures) and the recipes will make your mouth water.
- Behind the Scenes – we included historic photos of my family, even the first (slightly awkward) photo with my husband Vadim when we first met. I’m excited to share more of my family with you. I know I’m biased but the lifestyle photos are my favorite part of the book.
- Stories – I shared our back story with details I’ve never shared before; how we came to America as refugees, growing up, meeting my husband, and how this incredible Natasha’s Kitchen journey began.
Recipes in this Book
An accessible collection of more than 100 weeknight recipes from the creator of the wildly popular website Natasha’s Kitchen, featuring trusted family favorites and enticing new dishes.
In Natasha’s Kitchen, she shares 100+ budget-friendly, foolproof recipes anyone can whip up on even the busiest weeknight. From Salmon Piccata and Turkey Meatball Soup to Crispy Bacon Jalapeno Poppers as well as traditional Ukrainian recipes passed down from her mother like classic Borscht and her famous Pierogis, Natasha’s family-friendly recipes are made with easy-to-find ingredients and have been thoroughly tested. And because she loves to have her large extended family and friends over, there are also menus for sharing and easy entertaining—from a taco bar to a chili bar to the ultimate cheese board.
With a warm and encouraging voice accompanied by beautiful, mouthwatering photographs, Natasha offers readers a glimpse into her life as she does what she enjoys most: cooking for her loved ones.
We’ve shared a sampling of some of the Cookbook Recipes Here.
Corrections:
Despite having an entire team proofread the book many times over, a couple of things slipped through the cracks. Thank you for reporting these to me! Corrections will be made in the next printing:
- French Onion Soup on pg. 120 – Step 5: Once the stock and seasonings are in the pot, partially cover and simmer for 30 minutes. Watch the Video Tutorial.
- Index – Fettuccini Alfredo is on pg 132 (not 152)
What People are Saying…
The book has received glowing reviews since the day it launched. Read hundreds more reviews on Amazon.
“Delicious and Simple recipes”
“My husband and I were anticipating the arrival of Natasha’s cookbook. Because of her delicious recipes we stopped eating out as much. The recipes are simple and don’t require a whole lot of “hard to find” ingredients. Today we cooked 3 recipes to mealprep, the whole chicken, the mushroom chicken, and the restaurant-tasting mashed potatoes. I promise you won’t regret getting this cookbook. My 3 year old loved the mashed potatoes and the chicken with mushrooms. We look forward to cooking many more of these recipes. Thank you Natasha! Your skills have helped us save so much money by eating in and I love watching your YouTube channel. There has not been a recipe I’ve tried that my hubby and I have not loved. God bless you always!” – Keyla
“EASY, FAST, and DELICIOUS recipes”
“We have been following Natasha and her recipes for YEARS! We were ecstatic when we saw she was writing a cookbook! The picture is actually from a recipe from her website but one that we just cooked tonight! Natasha’s recipes consist of ingredients you mostly have on hand and never usually exceed 30 minutes. As a mother of two, this is huge! We also always get complimented when guests come over and 90% of the time it’s a “Natasha” recipe. My husband’s common phrase is “Natasha, you did it again!”Specifically for her book, it included more about Natasha’s life that we loved! Some more amazing recipes that are not on her website and we loved the tips and hints section! I know more ways to thaw butter that I am super excited to use! Thanks, Natasha!” – Curt S.
“Where do I begin!!”
“From the moment I opened this beautiful and long-awaited cookbook, I couldn’t put it down! I literally spent 3 hours reading every single page. I was fully committed and absorbed in the precious stories and family memories that caused me to tear up more than once (especially the one about how her and Vadim met). I felt like I knew Natasha and her family members personally and the way she weaved those memories and stories with the recipes was incredibly sweet. Of course, I have made many recipes in this book, but now beyond excited to get busy trying all the others! Thank you Natasha for who you are, your silly, funny, sweet and endearing personality that millions of us love and adore! Congratulations and God bless you and your family….so very proud of you!!” – Karen L.
“FANTASTIC!!”
“I’m so happy to receive Natasha’s cookbook and I am blown away at how beautiful it is! This is a very nice hefty hard-bound cookbook. It’s pages are filled with beautiful photos for each recipe and it is very well written and put together. There’s TONS of recipes in here! I’ve already made 3 of Natasha’s recipes from the book and my family loved every bite. The recipes are easy to follow and the print is just right. I’m going to be using this cookbook for a very long time. I can’t tell you enough how wonderful it really is! Don’t hesitate! Just get one! You will love it like I do.” – Alicia H.

Hi Gail! I’m so glad you’re loving it, thank you. No plans for number two yet, but it’s something I’ve considered. I’ll definitely announce it if we move forward.
I’ve been following your cooking for years (the beginning). I’m one of those mom’s that can’t cook without a recipe. You made cooking so easy, less frustrating and less intimidating. I’ve gotten more comfortable cooking because of you. My three boys (16 yrs, 11 yrs, and 8 yrs) love eating the food I make when I get a recipe from your website and now they know my secret source – your COOKBOOK! Thank you for sharing your talent with the world and with moms like me that struggle with ideas of what to cook next. We never get bored with your recipes. Thank you!
Hi Carolina! You are so sweet! Thank you for all the love and support over these years. It means so much that you are a long time follower and are enjoying my recipes.
Natasha, I recently received your cookbook! I absolutely love it! I am on a current obsession with your salads! Salad dressings or sauces by Natasha are thee best!!! 🤗
Thank you so much for your effort in seriously perfecting all your recipes!
Hi Yelena! That’s so great to hear. I’m
happy to know you’re enjoying it! If you have a moment, it would be so helpful if you could also leave a review for the book where you bought it (Amazon, Barnes and Noble, etc..)
I’ve watched you for several years on YouTube. Love your vids! I printed your famous meatloaf recipe and made it. It was awesome. I then went to Amazon and ordered your book and can’t wait to receive it. Thanks for fun vids, and great recipes.
~~ Not that you need more comments on the meatloaf, but I will be sure to drop a comment there.
Received your cookbook for Christmas…love it. Husband knows that if it has to do with cooking or kitchen buy it.
That’s so awesome! What a great gift!! I hope you get to try many of the recipes, very soon!
Natasha writes recipes that are easy to follow and accurate. She is Ukrainian so we love her even more!
Thank you, Alicia!
When my kids first saw the cookbook, they thought it was Greek because of the color of your shirt, and your white apron! We absolutely love every recipe!
I absolutely love this cookbook. I love the videos you do on YouTube. They’re fun and they make me enjoy cooking. I hope you keep this up. Make lots of more cookbooks. You are absolutely amazing. You made me want to cook again and I haven’t cooked in a long time.
I made your recipe for pasta fagioli. I put 28 oz of chicken broth, however, I would like it a little thicker. What should I
do to thicken it? I am taking it tomorrow to a pot luck dinner and the theme is Italian. Help.
Hi Pauline, can add more vegetables, beans, noodles, or try a cornstarch slurry. I hope that helps.
Hi Natasha. I found your site a few years ago and I love all your recipes. Thanks!
I’m so happy to hear you’re loving my blog and recipe, Renae! Thank you so much for sharing that with me.
Natasha, will you be signing the cookbooks if i buy it online? I have a collection of signed cookbooks and would love to add yours to it.
Hello Catherine. Unfortunately, I won’t be able to sign the cookbooks anymore but you can send an email and we’ll see what we can do about this.

Natasha, Since I started following you some time ago now, I have gotten nothing but compliments on what I cook. I love your cookbook especially the stories and easy to follow recipes. I always look up your version of whatever I’m cooking. All that plus you’re so fun to watch you and love your family!
