Whether you work from home, have lunch at the office, or want to please your friends, this cookbook fits all situations and all types of cooks. The recipes are designed to be quick and indulgent, while remaining accessible, even for beginners. Moreover, they often allow for the introduction of fruits and vegetables into our diets.

We love the ideas for hyper-creative sandwiches that bring a surprising and delicious touch to our lunch break.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the highlights of <strong><em>NOON<\/em><\/strong> is its flexibility. The recipes can be enjoyed at lunch, but they also adapt perfectly to breakfast or dinner.

Each recipe is an exploration of flavors and textures, with clever combinations that awaken the taste buds. For example, the carrot and pear salad with tahini and sesame seeds offers an intoxicating texture and a perfect balance between sweet and savory. We also have a big crush on this autumn salad made with roasted pumpkin, shallots, plum, stilton, and croutons, or the freshness of this salad featuring tender white beans, grapefruit, and pistachios.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-3 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1080\" height=\"1618\" data-id=\"90047\" src=\"https:\/\/us.modalova.com\/zine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/NOON_Salad_Squash_Radicchio_Grape.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-90047\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/us.modalova.com\/zine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/NOON_Salad_Squash_Radicchio_Grape.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/us.modalova.com\/zine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/NOON_Salad_Squash_Radicchio_Grape-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/us.modalova.com\/zine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/NOON_Salad_Squash_Radicchio_Grape-768x1151.jpg 768w, https:\/\/us.modalova.com\/zine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/NOON_Salad_Squash_Radicchio_Grape-1025x1536.jpg 1025w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1080\" height=\"1618\" data-id=\"90073\" src=\"https:\/\/us.modalova.com\/zine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/NOON_Salad_Fennel_Plum.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-90073\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/us.modalova.com\/zine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/NOON_Salad_Fennel_Plum.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/us.modalova.com\/zine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/NOON_Salad_Fennel_Plum-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/us.modalova.com\/zine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/NOON_Salad_Fennel_Plum-768x1151.jpg 768w, https:\/\/us.modalova.com\/zine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/NOON_Salad_Fennel_Plum-1025x1536.jpg 1025w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Similarly, the hummus and sauerkraut sandwich on sourdough brings a tangy and surprising touch that will delight lovers of bold flavors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The photographs in the cookbook play a key role in this culinary exploration. Each dish is highlighted by images that not only show the final result but also tell a story. The vibrant colors of the ingredients, the appetizing textures, and the careful presentations make you want to get cooking immediately. Meike Peters, as a photographer, manages to capture the essence of each recipe, making <strong><em>NOON<\/em><\/strong> a book that is as beautiful as it is useful. The best part? The recipes are so simple to prepare that the final result is always very close to the photo in the cookbook!
