I received the cookbook yesterday and have read through it. I'd say the

recipes are very good for newbies like me, or if you want to make a

quick, simple meal using fresh, wholesome ingredients.

 

I did try quinoa, which is something I'd never had before, and I really

like it. I ate it plain with a few dried cranberries thrown in and can

see how you can use it in various ways like making salads with it.

 

For many of you I'd say it's a bit elementary and certainly not in the

caliber of the recipes I've seen here.

 

But it offers some insight regarding various foods and what benefit you

derive from them along with her observations regarding the proper way

to eat and mix various foods, ie: fruit is digested the fastest so eat

it first.

 

It's pleasantly presented with little tips in the margins along the

way. An easy read with some good ideas!

Thanks for the review, dollkel!

 

I'd be interested in her adzuki/butternut squash (or maybe that was

adzuki/sweet potato) stew. I'd also be interested in her bean pattie

recipe.

It's a British cookbook that goes along with a British TV show. I enjoy

watching the show on BBC America and was also curious about the cookbook

after seeing her various recipes. :-)

It so funny that you mentioned this cookbook. I was watching the show this

morning on the BBC. I was thinking that some of the vegetarian recipes they

were being taught to make sounded good and was wondering if there was a

cookbook. Not everything they are taught to cook is vegetarian, but most

were..... It is a very good show.

Thanks for the info about the cookbook.

I don't have the cookbook, but have the 'You Are What You Eat - The plan that

will change your life' book.

For those who don't know anything about it, it's from the show of the same name

on BBC. People tend to either hate or love Jillian McKeith, I happen to enjoy

the show extremely. On each show she has someone who is in dire danger due to

their weight and she starts off by showing a table full of the food they ate

that week. Invariably it is a table of tan food. Then she shows a table full

of the food they will be eating for the next 8 weeks, which is every color of

fruit and vegetable you can imagine - just beautiful. She may say something

here or there that is not quite scientific, and I don't reallly know if that's

because she doesn't know or is just over simplyfying. But I can say that

seeing that full table of abundance has been such an inspiration to me and

really inspired me in my new path. You can see more on the show here:
