First off - i love the appliance and I like how this books gives tips on how to use it and pointers on extras that one my find helpful. The recipes work and are a good start for someone that is unsure about it.
Easy to follow recipes and a Good amount of pictures compared to other Ninja Foodi Grill cookbooks. Definitely enjoyed cooking and trying out new things.
I selected this book because of this in the description “Veggie options galore―Not a meat person? No problem! Get a grilling cookbook that has plenty of vegetarian recipes to choose from.”
Needless to say I’m pretty disappointed. The vegetarian chapter has 9 recipes. One has bacon. I’m not sure what the author / editors think vegetarian means, but bacon isn’t vegetarian. Granted there’s plant based options but if something is touted as vegetarian, it shouldn’t need substitutions and if it does, it should mention that. If someone who doesn’t understand what vegetarian is decided to make that recipe as it was presented for vegetarian friends/family, it’d be a real problem. To be fair it doesn’t say it’s vegetarian where they list the allergens, but it is still in the vegetarian chapter so I am confused as to why.
That said, there are some vegetarian recipes in other sections. For me this is a 1-2 star book because most of the meat free options also rely heavily on cheeses and I cannot eat dairy + dairy free cheeses aren’t so great that I want a meal based around them. For people without the dietary limits that I have I think this is a 4 star book so I am rating it that way. But if you are vegetarian, vegan, or just lactose intolerant, this one isn’t for you.

Easy to read step by step instructions on how to use the ninja Foodi grill. Great recipes for many different dishes with great detailed instructions with calories and other nutritional stats per serving.
I ♥ kitchen gadgets, and I've been really eyeing the Ninja Foodi since it came out because of the roasting/air frying thing, but I ultimately decided it wasn't worth getting. (Especially when I love my Instapot and have an Air Fryer I've thus far been too afraid to touch.)
Then, then the freaking Ninja Foodi Grill ads started to show and this cookbook and showed up on Netgalley, and if I'm going just off this cookbook?
It's going on my Christmas list.
It will probably remain there until the price goes down, but still! It's there! With hopeful stars.
So, the cookbook itself:
✓s: The recipes actually sounded amazing (even to me and my pickiness), recipes were helpfully tagged GF/DF/NF/under 30 minutes/&etc., the instructions did sound comprehensive even to someone who's never touched a Foodi Grill, nutritional information, helpful food swaps and hacks included as tips, and a good picture-to-recipe ratio,
✘s: More pictures would be nice? (That's always my complaint.)
tl;dr: How dare you make me desperately want another moderately expensive kitchen appliance. (But it grills! And I could cook so many delicious things, as this book demonstrates!*) Curse you, cookbook.
*This review could, of course, change if I get the Foodi, try the recipes, and they're terrible. But they seem legit.
Disclaimer: Thanks to Netgalley & the publisher for the free ARC, with no incentive or coercion on your parts, expect the part where it convinced me I now need to buy a Ninja Foodi Grill. Well played, Ninja. Well played.
I received a Ninja cooker for my birthday but was a little apprehensive of the machine and it's methods. What a surprise I had when I followed many of the recipes in this book and discovered the reason so many people love this machine!
