The Tinned Tomatoes Cookbook and The Frozen Peas Cookbook each deliver 100 budget-friendly recipes built around a single versatile ingredient.

About the Books
Part of the 100 Everyday Recipes series published by Murdoch Books, these two hardback cookbooks were written to make midweek cooking simpler, cheaper, and less wasteful. The Tinned Tomatoes Cookbook, Samuel Goldsmith's debut title, is built entirely around the humble tin of tomatoes, showing how one pantry staple can anchor pastas, soups, stews, curries, and sauces. The Frozen Peas Cookbook follows the same easy-peasy approach, celebrating the versatility of frozen peas across chapters like Storecupboard Saviours, One-Pot Wonders, Family Feasts, and a surprising Sweet Peas dessert chapter. Both books use a clean, photography-led layout with dietary flags for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian, vegan, and freezer-friendly recipes. Each title runs to 176 pages and offers exactly 100 recipes, meaning the set delivers 200 tested dishes in total. The books were designed with busy, budget-conscious cooks in mind, favoring short ingredient lists, common supermarket staples, and minimal hands-on time over complicated techniques. Whether used side by side or kept separately in the kitchen, this pairing turns two of the cheapest, most overlooked ingredients in any freezer or cupboard into the backbone of reliable, everyday meals. The hardback format and consistent series design make the two books easy to shelve together as a matching pair, ideal for cooks who want variety without hunting down specialty ingredients.
