review 1: Great recipes, although some of my smoothie concoctions made from whatever goodness I had in the fridge or freezer were sometimes better. But I got the idea to use dates for sweetener from this book, and it made me unafraid to throw in spinach, kale or other greens right into the blender. Pumpkin and sweet potatoes are also new for me, but they too are perfect for smoothies. Not sure I'm ready to throw in melted coconut oil yet, but coconut water rocks. Haven't tried any of the juice recipes, but want to, especially this one:Hot Rocket2 Gala apples2 handfuls arugula1 handful of cilantro2 cups coconut water/milk1 smidgen of jalapeno, to tastesoy sauce to taste
review 2: Great produce photography! A basic template for blended green drinks is provided, along wi
... moreth lots of nutritional data for the greens (but not the fruits). I had hoped for some scientific references backing the nutritional claims, but none listed. I have not tried any of the recipes, but like that the descriptions provided information about will in would be more palpable and best to introduce to children and newbies. Author's bias is towards more smoothies than juices, which I think is preferable anyways.Personal note: qualifies for these 2013 challenges-1) a-z book challenge2) nerdy non-fiction (food)3) foodies read less
