About this ebook
This cookbook of nourishing recipes offers easy ways for home cooks to create wholesome meals based on vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and legumes.
Focus on plant-based ingredients to build your meals, and you’ll discover that eating well has never been so simple! Packed with more than 80 recipes, this book offers easy ways to put nutritious meals on the table any time of day. It also features a comprehensive visual gallery of beneficial foods—a rainbow of vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and legumes—that serve as building blocks for a healthy lifestyle, with ideas for adding lean protein, low-fat dairy, and nuts and seeds to round out the meal. For easy planning, recipes are organized by course and feature short ingredient lists and sensible prep times, making them achievable any day of the week.
Some recipes, such as Bulgur Salad with Peppers, Chickpeas & Pistachios; Sicilian-Style Shrimp with Cauliflower & Almonds; Cashew Chicken Lettuce Tacos; and Roasted Sweet Potatoes with Cumin & Cilantro offer a simple ethnic twist. Others, like Swiss Chard & Onion Frittata; Barley Risotto with Chicken, Mushrooms & Greens; and Three Berry Cobbler are healthy versions of favorite comfort foods. Still others, such as Whole-Wheat Waffles with Honeyed Strawberries; Beet & Watercress Salad with Farm Eggs; and Pan-Grilled Radicchio with Salsa Verde, combine naturally nutritious raw ingredients into tempting dishes. Special sections throughout the book offer quick ideas for using super foods, such as strawberries, kale, chiles, melons or winter squash, in quick meals or snacks. Williams Sonoma Goodfor You proves that healthy meals are a pleasure to be savored.
