  • Simple Recipes for Chaotic Cooks.
  • Aoife McElwain is a messy cook who has managed to go from chaos to craic in the kitchen, and that’s what her book, MESSY, will help you do too.
  • With simple recipes interspersed with gentle coaching tools, this book is for anyone who wants to harness the joy of cooking and use food as a tool for a life well lived.

  • Most of all, MESSY is a celebration of creativity and of learning from our mistakes. Messiness can marinate into joy, and Aoife will show you how.
