A cookbook serving up real-life nourishment from the creator and television personality of Dish It Girl.
“This book is full of practical, no-fuss recipes that anyone can pull off, but still pack a punch in flavor.”—Kevin Jonas
Have you ever stood over the kitchen sink and asked God to help you make it through the day? The water is running, and you’re taking a deep breath, gripping the counter in front of you as you summon the strength to make it to bedtime. Or maybe you’re over the kitchen sink loading the dishwasher after a Sunday dinner full of friends, family, laughter, and joy.
This is a cookbook for each part of that journey, with inspiration and a helping hand—no matter what your kitchen sink looks like. Dina invites you into her busy kitchen giving you a peek into her family life, passing on her family favorites in the hopes they become yours as you feel the joy of everyone digging into Chicken Marsala with a Pancetta Cream Sauce. To know the way your heart warms as your niece begs you to make a batch of the Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies. Cheering alongside you as you experience the triumph swelling up when you turn rotisserie chicken into mouth-watering enchiladas. Or taking a quick “Mom Minute” with a Peanut Butter Marshmallow Stuffed Date in hand as you read through devotionals that draw from her own experiences as a mother, entrepreneur, and women of faith.
Dina wants to help your heart to become just as full as your table during everyday moments such as:
• Morning Person (Wake-Up Call)
• Ahead of the Game (for Pre-Prepped Dinners)
• Carpool Nights (for Weeknight Grab and Go)
• Pantry Picks (for Something from Nothing)
• The Sit-Down (to Impress Without the Stress)
Whether you’re scraping by on a busy weeknight, planning a big meal for a celebratory gathering, or reminding yourself to eat in the middle of a busy afternoon, At the Kitchen Sink will remind you that there is marvelous in your mundane, and there is purpose in your prayers at the kitchen sink.

Reviews
“This book is a treasure, a true gift for body and soul. Dina Deleasa-Gonsar has this vulnerable voice that gently touches our heart, all while her recipes nourish our bellies. She speaks from her heart, and it jumps off the page as if she’s right here reading aloud. The recipes are simple and approachable but absolutely not ordinary. This book will give you hope and some fabulous inspiration for tasty meals you might not have tried. Above all else, Dina Deleasa-Gonsar’s beautiful relationship with Jesus is my favorite part about this book. At the Kitchen Sink is a must for every home.”—Danielle Kartes, author of Butter, Flour, Sugar, Joy
“Splattered with vanilla extract and smeared with pureed pumpkin, At the Kitchen Sink quickly became such a treasure. But more than just recipes filling my belly, Dina Deleasa-Gonsar’s real devotionals filled my spirit with so much hope, encouragement, and life to the FULL. Never have I read or seen anything like it—sure to bless anyone who picks it up (especially for those who try the Banana Coffee Whip)!”—Heidi Lee Anderson, author of P.S. It’s Gonna Be Good
“At the Kitchen Sink is so much more than a cookbook—it’s an invitation to discover God’s faithfulness in the everyday moments we so often overlook. Dina’s recipes and devotionals meet you right where you are, offering both nourishment for your table and encouragement for your soul. This book will remind you that even at the kitchen sink, God is at work, transforming the mundane into purposeful moments.”—Rebecca George, author of Do the Thing and You’re Not Too Late and host of the Radical Radiance podcast
“Dina Deleasa-Gonsar’s book is filled with recipes that have become family favorites. Now I don’t have to call her every other day for her dressing recipe. It is a joy to see my sister share not only her kitchen but also her heart with so many through this book. At the Kitchen Sink will no doubt give others confidence in the kitchen, as she has given me many times. The devotionals will leave readers feeling encouraged and assured that their efforts with their own friends and family are of the utmost value.”—Danielle Jonas
“Family time is so important, especially in the midst of such a busy life. When you are at home, you want to be surrounded by those you love sharing moments, most likely over a good meal. My sister-in-law’s cookbook At the Kitchen Sink captures this same spirit. Her book is full of practical, no-fuss recipes that anyone can pull off but that still pack a punch in flavor. I would know since I have taste tested quite a few. If you want to make meals that feel like home and don’t require a lot of effort, this book’s got you covered.”—Kevin Jonas
