The Official Chase 'N Yur Face Cookbook

Inspired by his journey with autism and overcoming food aversions, Chase Bailey's The Official Chase 'N Yur Face Cookbook entices people of all ages to experience familiar dishes done in different ways; and to discover new things about food while celebrating life and ourselves. Combining delightful recipes, uplifting anecdotes, fun facts, delectable photographs, and humorous animations, Chase teaches home-cooks to prepare a wonderful array of dishes under fun chapter titles: Get Up & Go; Feed the Beast; Pick-Me-Ups; Let's Feast; Life Is Sweet; and Cool Breezes & a Santa Ana Wind. Chase's cookbook includes omnivore, vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free recipes.

“Families around the world will be lucky to have Chase Bailey, the most infectious food enthusiast of his generation, guiding them through an exciting culinary adventure. Chase is vibrant, he's energetic about food, and he's experienced food in ways we could only dream of. I'm happy to have shared his joy for our little food world inside the kitchen, and I know it will translate in his first cookbook.”

A celebration of Chase and cooking combined.

Chase Bailey is the host and co-creator of the YouTube cooking show Chase 'N Yur Face. He also happens to be an African-American teenager with autism, whose mother was told when Chase was a toddler that he might not be able to speak or take care of himself. But Chase is proving the nay-sayers wrong! Not only is Chase hosting his own cooking show with prominent chefs and celebrity foodies as his guests, he has also been featured in GE's Our American Kitchen series and a GE commercial; appeared in magazines and local, national, and international newspapers; and made TV appearances on The Chew, and The Meredith Vieira Show. Some of the chefs he has cooked with include Roy Choi, Mario Batali, Mary Sue Milliken, Susan Fenigar, Becky Reams, and Choc-Chick Founder, Galia Orme. He's also cooked with such celebrity foodies as actress Fuschia Sumner, as well as Anne Scioscia, wife of Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim Manager, Mike Scioscia. In addition to pursuing his ambitions in the culinary and entertainment industries, it is especially important to Chase that he inspire and tangibly support others who need help achieving their own dreams. So Chase's endeavors also include establishing his Chase Yur Dreams Foundation (CYDF), to provide resources and opportunities for those on the autism spectrum who are working toward independent living. With this goal in mind, Chase is donating a portion of all proceeds from his cookbook to CYDF. Chase believes that, "We're ALL doing life with a little bit of help. We all have dreams, and need help fulfilling those dreams. And when you have a dream in your heart, you must chase it!"
