With local restaurants closed, people are finding themselves spending more time in the kitchen at home and as a result, experiencing fatigue and burnout from cooking—and the Don’t Cookbook by Postmates was created to provide relief. Rather than taking the form of a recipe book with simple meals made with minimal ingredients, the Don’t Cookbook provides 206 pages of inspiration for meals cooked by Postmates' partners.
