The dreamboat who played Aaron Samuels in Mean Girls, Jonathan Bennett, now has a cookbook called The Burn Cookbook. For those who are fans of the film, there’s no need to explain why.
The book is fun twists on classic recipes, and he first got the idea to make a book when he was making guacamole with a friend: “He put pomegranate seeds and I put apples in it and he goes, ‘It’s not regular guac. It’s cool guac,’” he quipped with People magazine. “And I go, ‘Whoa, what did you just say?’ I was like, ‘Fetch-uccine Alfredo. We have to make Fetch-uccine happen.’”
That’s when he decided to make a Mean Girls inspired cookbook. As he told People, Jonathan re-watched the film from start to finish and wrote down every important reference or famous quote that people still remember 14 years later.
“We worked backward to make the recipes,” he says. “We came up with the puns and funny names first then created recipes around them.” Inside, fans will find recipes like Gretchen’s Weiners, Toaster Doodles and You Go, Glenn (Hot) Cocoa.
