Review:The whole planet is getting fat, each cow uses over 2000 gallons of water, cows and chickens produce a huge amount of methane and global warming, and animal fats cause heart attacks (read the story about Norway in WW2). I'm curious: Is there ANY benefit to eating a high calorie, non-plant based diet?
If you can't just do it, this book makes it doable. Read more

Review:I LOVE this cookbook. Incredibly healthy, super easy! I am learning to make my most favorite food on the planet...Ethiopian. I am a yogi and have been making Kitchari for years.

Review:This arrived yesterday and although I have not used it I looked through it and it appears to be exactly what I need. Recipes look easy without strange ingredients which I have never heard of. Looking forward to using it. Read more

Review:My daughter in law just made a trip to NYC and ate at Bobby Flay's Mesa Grill and I thought that it would be fun to get a cookbook from his restaurant. The book is excellent and the service was great as well. Read more

And my results thus far, though less photogenic than the photos in book, are at least tasty! Read more

Review:As a "seasoned" cook, I've been down most of the cooking routes: from the French classics, to one-hour gourmet, to complex vegetarian, to severe, healthy cooking by the docs.

Review:The recipies all have a very long ingrediant list and can be pretty complicated. I work alot and was hopping for somthing to just tell me what to eat while pregnet and a halfway simple way to do it. I only made the muffin recipies, they were good and was happy with how healthy they were but took alot of time and don't keep very well. Read more
