First up – Slim & Scrumptious
It’s been a long time since I’ve focused on cookbooks that aren't specifically allergen-free or gluten-free food. But my family has joined a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) project for the summer, and I am suddenly overwhelmed with foods like kale, and radicchio, and bok choy, so when the folks at joybauer.com offered to send me two of Joy's cookbooks, I jumped at the chance. New recipes are always welcome – especially healthy recipes. Slim & Scrumptious, while not aimed at a gluten-free or allergen-free audience, has a lot of great options – in fact almost every recipe in the book can either be made as-is, or substituted for the few food allergens she does include. Joy uses ingredients like quinoa, and beans, and lots and lots of veggies. I recently made the Crispy Kale Chips and they are a winner!
Next up – Food Cures
Food Cures
And just to be clear – the food doesn’t actually “cure”. Instead, it’s about eating the right foods to stay healthy.

Alisa and Mindy, thanks for entering and following!
I've been dealing with a gastrointestinal illness for a long while now that has caused a major sensitivity to most foods and a dramatic change in diet. I think this book would make a great addition to my cooking/health books because I'm always looking to find new things that I can add into my diet to help me enjoy life as I work on getting better. Thanks for the opportunity.
Now following you on Twitter.
