NOURISHING MEALS

This simple, practical guide and cookbook will help you ditch processed foods one meal at a time, with whole food-based recipes that are gluten, soy, and dairy free. The authors, two popular bloggers, are a husband-and-wife team, that originally self-published NOURISHING MEALS and sold 27,000 copies. This revised edition will feature updated material, more than 30 new recipes, and also include 100 new food photos.

Alissa Segersten and Tom Malttere are determined to teach their children--and readers--the importance of living a whole foods lifestyle. They know how difficult this can be in today's busy world, so they have created a cookbook to help you change your family's health one meal at a time. These 365 simple, family-friendly recipes are free of the most common allergens: gluten, soy, eggs, and dairy, as well as refined sugar. With main dishes designed to appeal to everyone, including vegan, vegetarian, seafood, and meat eaters, Tom and Ali offer a recipe for every day of the year, so readers can ease into a whole foods lifestyle by simply replacing one meal a day with a recipe from the book. They map out the best foods and recipes for every stage of having a family, from pre-conception and pregnancy through each year of a child's life. This unique cookbook combines the whole foods, allergen-free philosophy of Against All Grain with the family-friendly appeal of 100 Days of Real Food.
