review 1: I have to disclose that I have multiple food allergies and have been "relearning" to cook over the past couple of years. It is a hard journey--buying expensive ingredients and having inconsistent, sometimes terrible results. I continued to have some health issues so I decided to do the "Whole30" program. I was buying another cookbook from my wishlist and got a great deal on this one at the same time. I do not eat a Paleo diet but I would say I am "partially Paleo." (Ain't nothing wrong with meat and vegetables!)The book is laid out well, the recipes are easy to read, and there is a place for notes on many pages. (Yes, I write in my cookbooks! They are MY cookbooks!) Lots of substitutions are recommended as well as what to pair with what.The recipes I made so far have turne... mored out SO AWESOME. My husband, who has no food restrictions and eats the Standard American Diet, loved the barbecued beef so much that he asked me to keep it in rotation. Bonus: it's a crockpot recipe and SO easy!This is not a criticism of the book, just something special to me: I can't have eggs, so any recipe that had the homemade mayo (which I've heard is very good) was not on my "to-try" list during the Whole30. Now that I'm done, I'll try those with a (not-Paleo) substitute.I highly recommend this book for anyone who likes to eat, even if you are just learning to cook.
review 2: Love this cookbook. Really shows you how to cook up a bunch of food on Sunday so you can throw together meals all week with healthy, delicious food. I'm now a master at making my own olive oil mayo so I can whip up different tuna or chicken salads that I can throw on greens with vegetables I already cut up for the week. Bbq chicken, boil some eggs and fry up a bunch of chicken sausages for some quick protein to mix and match. Prep vegetables with a quick steam so they're ready to throw in a recipe. It really helps to stay on course when the food is ready to go and sitting in glass containers that are so easy to see in the fridge. less

Love this too but the recipes are more involved, so not as much of a staple as Well Fed.
