Over 80 seasonal recipes for cooking with wild game and eating consciously, from one of MeatEater’s leading culinary voices.

“This is food that makes you feel good, both physically and emotionally. It’s food that’ll make you proud to sit down at your own table.”—Steve Rinella, author of The MeatEater Fish and Game Cookbook and The MeatEater Outdoor Cookbook

Wild + Whole founder Danielle Prewett believes that every meal should tell a story, and that sustainable eating starts by reawakening our connection to food and relying on the seasons and the inherent rhythms of nature to guide our choices. In her debut cookbook, Wild + Whole, she shares the personal journey that taught her to love hunting, fishing, foraging, and gardening, as well as her philosophy for cooking seasonally, eating consciously, and approaching food with curiosity, thoughtfulness, and intention. As a leading voice in the wild food community and a trusted resource on processing and cooking wild game, Prewett creates meals that celebrate the diversity of food.
