The Complete Clean Eating Cookbook by Laura Ligos, MBA, RDN, CSSD, Rockridge Press, Callisto Publishers, 315 pages

“Clean eating encourages you to choose foods

that not only taste good but also optimize

your healthy and wellness.”

-Laura Ligos, Chapter One, page 1

Chapter One starts this cookbook with the Clean Eating Basics and Code. There is a section on how to stock your kitchen, refrigerator and freezer, and what tools and equipment to have to enhance preparing your meals.

Chapter Two offers three Meal Plans: Clean Eating 101 Plan, Wellness Plan, and the Healthy Lifestyle Plan. The meal plans are easy to follow with weekly examples, the recipes, and corresponding page numbers from the cookbook, and shopping lists.

Chapters Three through Twelve contains numerous recipes including Smoothies, Snacks, Salads, Seafood, Beef and Lamb, and Desserts. Following the recipes are useful cooking temperature and measurement conversion charts, resources list and recipe index.

I chose the Turmeric Rice on page 93 to prepare with my Chicken with Olives and Capers (page 105), and Greek Fasolakia (Green Beans) (page71) recipes from the Mediterranean Diet Slow Cooker Cookbook by Shannon Epstein. This dinner was very tasty and filling and I plan to prepare these recipes again in the near future, maybe with different sides and main dishes.

Whether you are looking for a chicken, pork, or vegetarian recipe it is there waiting to be prepared for your enjoyment. I am recommending this cookbook for everyone who cooks wanting a healthier way to prepare their meals without compromising on flavor or any choice of food.
