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 Oralia! Thank you so much for the pre-order. I’m so glad you enjoy my recipes.
Great news congrats, Can’t wait just pre-ordered mine today from Amazon Australia.
That’s wonderful! Thank you for the order.
Hi Natasha,
Congratulations on your new book. I bet it was a labor of love writing it. Do you plan to schedule book signing tours and if so, is Nashville, TN one of the designated locations?
Hi Darrell! Thank you so much. It was quite the project but we are so excited.
I am working with the publisher on book signing, I hope to be able to do some but I do not have any information on that yet.
Hi Natasha,
Firstly, a big congratulations on your first cookbook! What a great achievement!
May I know if your cookbook includes a QR quote video for every recipe?
Thanks & best regards
Im
Hi Lee! Thank you very much! No, it does not include QR codes. The cookbook has some of my old recipes but most of the recipes are brand new (not on my site) so we would not have any videos filmed for them yet.
I cannot wait for your cookbook to come out! Every single thing I cook of yours comes out so delicious and gets put in the rotation! I can’t thank you enough for your simple cooking style with fantastic food! People rave about the many items of yours I cook! 🥰
That’s wonderful, Amy! I’m so glad you are loving the recipes. Thank you!
Hi Natasha! I always love watching you coz you’re so entertaining! hehe I Love how you made cooking so fun! I always do as well. Thanks for interacting with us while commenting on FB. Love you girl! Keep it up!!! ….& Congratulations!!!!!
Thanks to much, Ana! I appreciate the love and support.
Hi Natasha, pre-ordered your cookbook, looking forward to get it. Thanks for sharing your recipes (easy to follow and easy ingredients). Been making some of your recipes with good success.
I’m so excited for you to get it, Lisa! Thank you for your lovely comment!
I would like to know where to purchase the charcuterie board that you use in tutorial for making charcuterie boards.
Thanks so much!
We are gluten free and I have converted many of your recipes successfully!
Hi Carolyn, you can find it linked on our How to Make a Charcuterie Board recipe link! I hope this helps!
HI Natasha! So excited to hear about your cookbook! I have enjoyed your videos and tried several of your recipes. All of them received a “thumbs up” review from my family. There is a reserved place amongst my cookbook collection waiting for your book! Can’t wait!!!
Aww, thank you! That’s amazing. This means so very much to me.
I pre-ordered the cookbook and am excited to receive it. Thanks for making by cooking and baking days fun and tasty!
You’re very welcome! Thank you for the purchase, that means so much to me.
So excited for your wonderful recipes in this book. Will you be selling autographed copies of the cookbook?
Hi Debbie! I hope to have some signed copies and also to do some book signings but I do not have any details on this yet.
I am so excited for this cookbook! I have recently discovered your website and I have made a couple incredible recipes and I can’t wait to try more. I have a question in regards to your cookbook (only because I have to cook for celiac children and want to order it). Do you know more or less how many recipes or what percentage rely on flour? I try to avoid books that have too many yeasted breads, cakes or anything that I can’t substitute with gluten free items. I want to be able to use it and not have to skip too much. I hope this is an okay question for you.
HI Paige, thank you for asking – that is a great question – there are at least 50% of the recipes that have no gluten and the rest – most of them can use simple substitutions to make them gluten free. For example, a creamy sauce can substitute flour with 1:1 GF flour, or a bun on a sandwich or burger could be purchased GF, or croutons could be omitted from a salad, or GF breadcrumbs could be used instead of regular or a Gluten free baguette or bread could be subbed instead of a regular one. Given creative substitutions like these, I would guess about 60-70% of the recipes would be useful for someone on a Gluten Free diet. It’s a pretty even spread of Breakfast, Mains, Salads, Sides, and Desserts, pasta/grains and appetizers.
Hi Natasha! I love your recipes so much I just pre ordered 2 of your cookbooks. I’m sure I’ll order more closer to Christmas too (I’ll have to keep one for myself). I think they’ll make wonderful gifts.
Thank you, Claire! We appreciate your love and support. That is a great idea!
