“Say good-bye to mundane meals with The Whole30 Cookbook. These mouthwatering recipes will help you reset your health while filling your life with delicious good food.” –DANIELLE WALKER, New York Times best-selling author of Against All Grain and Meals Made Simple “As a food nerd who lives to eat, it’s important that my lifestyle is as tasty as it is healthy. The Whole30 completely changed the game for me and gave me a fresh start in more ways than one, and with The Whole30 Cookbook, you can reboot your life, too–one delicious, deprivation-free bite at a time.” –MICHELLE TAM, New York Times best-selling author of Nom Nom Paleo: Food for Humans “Melissa is the kind of person you’d love to have next to you at yoga class because she gives excellent advice, knows the best stuff to eat, and says just the right thing to turn your day around. Lucky for all of us, her expert guidance is readily available on bookshelves everywhere. Add this book to your arsenal and crush your next Whole30!” –MELISSA JOULWAN, author of the best-selling Well Fed cookbooks “Delicious is now synonymous with healthy thanks to Melissa’s latest book. These gorgeous recipes truly defy the odds by being flavorful to the taste buds, nourishing to the body, and fulfilling to the tummy–all at the same time.” –ALI MAFFUCCI, New York Times best-selling author of Inspiralized “Hartwig, a sports nutritionist and cocreator of the Whole30 diet plan, packs her fourth book on the subject with 150 recipes that are, as the cover proclaims in all-caps, “totally compliant.” That means heavy emphasis on eggs, meat, fish, and fresh vegetables, but no grains, dairy, legumes or added sugars. Whether or not one buys into Whole30, there is no denying that Hartwig has come up with a clever array of healthy and flavorful dishes. Highlights include Asian beef zoodle (zucchini noodles) soup, which is similar to Vietnamese pho but uses zucchini noodles, and grilled Jamaican jerk salmon with fresh mango salsa. Many of the recipes come courtesy of guest cooks from various food blogs. For instance, Michelle Smith, from the Whole Smiths blog, contributes cherry-chipotle BBQ chicken thighs, with the fruit providing the sweetness and ground chipotle bringing the heat. Veteran food and cocktail photographer Brent Herrig drives home the point that a burger served on a tomato slice is as delectable as one on a bun, and that meatballs do just fine in a cream sauce made with coconut milk.
