REVIEW

Simple recipes to make eating healthy a bit easier.

Full of helpful information such as a seasonal produce guide, 3 Indexes (Recipe Type, Recipe Title, and Index), Pantry Essentials, and the Clean Eating Guideline are a few that you’ll find. Each recipe has the total servings and the nutrition information as well as a tip.  All recipes contain up to five main ingredients in addition to ingredients that are/should be in your pantry (pantry essentials). All recipes are pretty simple with ingredients that you are able to find in your local grocery store. The directions are easy to follow. Each recipe is labelled if it is Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free, Paleo-Friendly, Vegan, or Vegetarian. These are also broken down in the Recipe Type Index as well as Freezer-Friendly Recipes, One-Pot/Pan Recipes, Slow Cooker Recipes and 30 Minute Recipes. I found quite a few recipes to try. This one is a keeper.
