Fabulous cookbook for healthy eating



Finally forgiven......When I received the latest version of Trim Healthy Mama, I was incredibly disappointed that there were no recipes, only the hows and whys of the sister duo's ways of cooking and eating healthy and losing weight in the process.  Well, I can now forgive the ladies because they have introduced a cookbook full of recipes that dwarf what was offered in the original book.  From one pot meals (my personal favorite) to breakfast foods to sweets and hearty main dishes, this book contains over 350 recipes, several of which are destined to become favorites.  Some of the recipes have ingredients that you may not keep in your pantry if you are not already a Trim Healthy Mama cook but all items are very easy to acquire at your local grocery store or health food store--also easily available on-line. (This comment probably applies more to baked goods than other recipes.) One of the unique features of this cookbook is that the sister's personalities still shine just as in Trim Healthy Mama when they take turns sharing the history of the recipe of tips.

As for the book itself, I will always wish cookbooks were either loose leaf or spiral bound so I can easily lay them on the counter and cook from them.  However, a nice slick paper was chosen so it is easy to wipe away small drips and spills from the book.

Lest you be misled, the Trim Healthy Mama Cookbook isn't just for those who want to lose weight.  Eating healthy foods will make  you feel better and give you more energy than you have had for years.  Give it a try.  It isn't necessary to have the cookbook to eat healthy but it sure does make it a bit simpler. 

I did receive this book free from the publisher in exchange for an honest review and was in no way obligated to write a positive one.
