Bountiful: Recipes Inspired by Our Garden is more than just a cook book. If you know Todd Porter and Diane Cu (White on Rice Couple), you know it’s a work of art and labor of love. Inspired by their amazing vegetable garden along with 38 fruit trees, this book offers 100 seasonal, flavorful, simple recipes.
Todd and Diane are two of THE most sincere, generous and authentic people in the blogging world that I’ve had the opportunity to meet. I love how open they are and never hold back from sharing their love, knowledge and encouragement. This book is everything I would expect from them and more! My all time favorite blog conference experience was Todd and Diane’s photography workshop at the EVO conference a few years ago. If you want to learn about photography, they are the people you want to talk to and watch! These two make the world a better place. Don’t believe me? Check out their life recipe.
I have more than half the ravishing recipes bookmarked.
I want to share a little peak inside the book…… note: my pictures of their masterpieces don’t do the book justice, you MUST get your hands on this book to appreciate it in all it’s beauty!
just a few things I want to make.
bountiful pizzas
melon sangira
sauteed peaches with brown butter pancakes
pear dorf salad
red tomato jam
roasted pumpkin ice cream
are you drooling yet? I don’t know about you………..but I’m ready to pack up and move to southern California so I can try my hand at such a robust garden…..ok, and maybe so I can hang out on the beach all day too 😉 I mean, we are talking California, right?
Todd & Diane not only sent me a copy of their stunning book, but they would also like to give one to one lucky TidyMom reader!

I have had a small porch garden in my apartment, but it’s hard to keep going without the full sun!
I have a summer garden that tonight’s early freeze will finish. I have squash, tomatoes, jalapeño peppers, and basil every year!
I always grow tomatoes & a few herbs if nothing else. I don’t grow as much of a vegetable garden as I used to.
My mother always had a garden and my grandparents on their farm. Always helped them as a child. I’ve grown corn once and tomatoes. Just no time with kids in travel sports having us running up and down the east coast!
Thanks so much for hosting Cheryl! The book looks beautiful. No gardening experience here though! :0
Does having a porch garden count? I grew tomatoes and herbs this summer.
Thanks so much for the party, Cheryl! 🙂
Thanks so much for hosting your party, Cheryl!
I don’t have a garden (yet) because I live in an apartment. HOWEVER, my colleague LOVES gardening and promised to help me next spring find things I can grow on my apartment patio 🙂
I have a very small herb garden and a perennial garden.
Thank you for hosting! 🙂

I’ve only grown herbs. Not with a lot of success. Once I had a little pumpkin patch that I accidentally killed.
I have had a garden with either my parents or with my husband for over 40 years. I remember as a child picking rocks from the garden each spring as they washed up. Never made any sense to me that rocks would come back the next year after I had picked them all up the year before. It’s a running joke in our family that you do not send our daughter to pick anything from the garden. Not much would make it back to the house.
We have a kitchen garden. This year we grew tomatoes, pole beans, cucumbers, peppers, eggplant, zucchini, basil, parsley and turnips. Also have a rhubarb patch. It makes for amazing meals.
Thank you so much for hosting Cheryl! Have a lovely weekend! Angie xo
I’ve always wanted a garden, but I’ve been in a rental forever. Starting a garden is one of my goals once we buy a house. Lucky for me, one of my girlfriends has a wicked green thumb. Thank you for the giveaway.
I had no time for a garden this year, but I really missed it! Especially getting to cook with fresh herbs! I would LOVE to check out their book!
I garden in pots-basil, mint and tomatoes.
We just moved cities so I will be starting on a new garden soon!
I wish I had more experience with gardening. My grandmother has strawberries and some herbs in a little spot in her backyard, that I always love to pick from!
We have a big garden. We love all the fresh vegetables.
My parents always gardened–and I have tried as I thought our children would eat vegetables more–but they didn’t. Nothing is better or more beautiful than produce right in your back yard…
We do have a garden…my 13 year old son is the master. His specialties are tomatoes and peppers. I LOVE gardening with him, so much fun.
I don’t have a garden and being a city girl, will probably never have one. I don’t have a green thumb and neither does my husband- we have somehow managed to kill a cactus, bamboo tree and several other plants under our care. My mother on the other hand, loves to garden and grows fresh vegetables and herbs which she shares with us.
Yes, I have my own garden but I only have herbs in it: rosemary, thyme, parsley, ciboulette… I have the intention to start with vegetables like tomatoes, hope I can do it soon 🙂
Thank you for hosting 🙂
I just LOVE them. Been a long time follower of them on their blog & IG. Aside from making me hungry – I am so pulled in to their stunning photography. Some serious talent with them two. Beautiful people, beautiful images, scrumptious food- now I just need my own garden. Right now I head to the farmer just down the road & buy from him which is working for now.
Lately my gardening plans are a work in progress. I now live in a condo with a small front patio and a lovely balcony space facing pine trees which are rather large. The pine trees are so very beautiful and the different types of pine cones they drop are like little gifts that I pick up and place around the entrance and other areas around my condo. The pine trees don’t allow for a lot of sunlight so figuring out what I can plant to fruition is still a learning experience. I grew up with a large garden that I loved working in as a child. That gardening experience that my mother shared with me really sparked my love of fresh home grown fruits and vegetables. During the winter months we would eat what she canned and I would be in awe at those little bottles of food that we grew ourselves instead of buying at the store. Just seeing what others can accomplish in their very own gardens is both exciting and inspiring to me.
Wow! Gorgeous book! Yes, I have a garden, and have grown quite a few things with success. 🙂
That is one gorgeous cookbook!
We have had a garden in our church community garden for the last 3 years. I love it although we are not very knowledgeable gardeners. We grow tomatoes, corn, jalapenos, serranos, tomatillos, cherry tomatoes, canteloupe, and watermelons (neither of these have done very well).
I don’t but my father in law does. He grows corn, potatoes, lettuce, onions, carrots, pumpkin, tomatoes, cabbage… and so on. He has too pigs, a cow, chickens and goats.
I currently live in an apartment… no real place for a garden outside. Looking forward to grow some herbs inside though!
Not really a whole lot of experience gardening. My husband does all our gardening.
We’ve had 3 square foot raised bed vegetable gardens for the past couple of years. Items we’ve grown: tomatoes, radishes, squash, bell peppers, jalapeno peppers, strawberries, and blackberries.
Yes, we are always working on our garden. Not great at it but trying.
I had a garden with tomatoes, lettuce, radishes, zucchini and peppers. I do miss it but now I live in Chicago and they have Farmer’s Markets on several days. It has been fun meeting others who enjoy growing their own foods.
I used to garden all the time when my kids were young. They each had their own section (10 kids so big variety!). I live in FL now and find it difficult to garden with all my allergies (including fire ants) and my fear of snakes! I am still hoping to move elsewhere or that my daughter in law and I will be able to have raised garden boxes!
growing up I always helped garden with my family,but where we live now we can’t have one
I did try gardening once for a few weeks. Love the cookbook. . . so colorful and delish looking!
Unfortunately, I don’t have a yard in which to garden. But I do have a thriving herb garden on my tiny patio. Nothing like cooking with freshly picked herbs!!
Ive always had small gardens in my backyard. This year we had success with tomatoes for the first time and next year we are hoping to take expand the garden space.
I have had gardens in the past however, I have moved to a small townhouse with no yard space. I love to cook and love to be able to go to my garden and pick fresh produce that I have grown. I know one day soon I will be able to do all of this again. Thanks for sharing Todd and Diane’s story loved it!
I love to garden – can’t beat fresh tomatoes and basil! But I live on a hill and mostly garden in containers. Would LOVE to win this book!
I used to garden A LOT but since moving to Washington I don’t get enough sun in my yard. My friend and I go to the Farmers Market everyother weekend. Love it!
I have had a small hand in gardening in the past. I unfortunately live in an apartment so I don’t have much space to have an actual garden, but I have planted a strawberry plant pot in the past. Growing and harvesting my fresh own berries was delightful! 🙂
I do have a garden and I love it!!
My husband and I love to garden! We don’t have a very big backyard, but half of it is garden. It is challenging to grow things in Arizona, but every year we learn more.
We always have a garden. We love to grow our veggies.
I have pots of herbs and love them!
I love to garden and love to cook
I would love to have a garden. I have to start small though…maybe herbs first. I tend to kill house plants, but maybe my black thumb can become a green one 🙂
