While I'm a big fan of finding recipes online, there's something really great about pulling down a cookbook off the shelf and flipping through the recipes.
Especially when there are gorgeous pictures. And great health info. And convenient tabs, a handy ingredient list, cook & prep times, nutrition data, and ideas for including kids in the fun.
THIS COOKBOOK HAS IT ALL!
I can't think of a single thing it's missing, honestly. I can sit down and read through it like a novel almost - it's very entertaining and actually MOTIVATES me to WANT to try out these recipes. And that's a big deal, cuz I'm really not a kitchen whiz. I'm veryvery good at making a bowl of cereal, and green smoothies. And that's where my skills end. And that lack of competence is very demotivating sometimes. But reading this cookbook.... makes me feel like I can fly. Around the kitchen. Making yummy things.
We've tried a few recipes and really enjoyed them. Greener Sloppy Joes, pg 91. Cashew-Cinnamon Yogurt Sauce, pg 146. And these Almond Flour Honey Cakes, pg 138 with Mixed Seed Butter Frosting. My whole family LOVED them!
Let's review here, folks. You need to walk away from reading this review knowing:
-The recipes are super family-friendly and healthy.
-Many recipes are perfect for kids to make with a little adult help.
-Even if you don't have any allergies in the family (like us), the recipes in here are still for YOU.
-The pictures. They're amazing. You will be tempted to lick the pages.

How can you WIN one? Leave a comment. That's all. OH, and I'd appreciate it if you'd like my totally unrelated but uber-important site on FB, Utah Running Guide :)
We'll randomly select the lucky winner on Sat. July 14th after I put the kids to bed. Which could be quite late at our house during the summer...especially when I feed them honey cakes at 9pm.... =)
***Giveaway OVER! Congrats to the TWO winners: Annalee and Amanda!***

Would love to win the book. My sister has a child with a few food allergies and would like finding recipes for her.
I'd defiinitely use this cook book because I've just started to reduce my consumption of yeasty foods. I'll need all the help (and recipes) I can get!
Hey cool book! I haven't heard of this one. Let me just put my plug in for why I would be a great winner: Grace is allergic to milk and eggs and it is dang hard to feed her. We are getting really sick of stir fry and spaghetti so I could really use some dinner revival. Thanks for the book review!
Looks like a great cook book! This is a great idea to have a book geared to people with allergies. Thanks!
I would LOVE this cookbook!
Yum! Looks like those kids love the recipes for sure! Thanks for the chance for us to win!
