I was super-excited when I got this book. The recipes are easy to follow, healthy and most importantly they taste wonderful. The Chickpea Salad is not only a great way to pack some protein into a sandwich for lunch, I use it on a bed of lettuce to spice up a boring salad. Shipshape Joes' are fun, tasty alternative to the Sloppy Joes we all ate and loved. I actually like this healthy version even better. For sweet tooths, there are plenty of great recipes (we are huge fans of the Fudgesicles made with cashew butter). I find myself grabbing this every day and both my body and my taste buds have not looked back. Added bonus: my skin and hair suddenly feel amazing....coincidence? I think not!
