Jose Andres deserves the Nobel Peace Prize. No one can argue against that because you would be arguing against feeding people.
Andres was lucky to figure out early in life that feeding people was his mission. In the past decade, he has exponentially expanded his mission to feed millions in the face of war and natural disaster.
“Change the Recipe” is a collection of the lessons he has learned along the way and how to implement them into your own life. I especially enjoyed the insights into his younger days.
I would recommend this book for upcoming graduates or anyone looking to find purpose in their lives. A grand initial gesture is never needed to change the world. Start small, start local and it will grow and flourish from there.
Thank you to NetGalley and Ecco for the opportunity to read and review.
