I love a cookbook that includes delicious recipes along with
photos of what the dishes look like. Dashing
Dish by Katie Farrell has food that is healthy and full of flavor. It even includes tips for developing healthy
habits when you snack and during special occasions. I like that the recipes are
not overly complicated. The estimated time each recipe takes is listed so I can
select a quick option if I’m in a hurry or select a longer prep time on the
weekend, when I have more time to spend in the kitchen.
This recipe book is divided into categories including
Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, Side dishes, Snacks and Desserts. Having a healthy
snack section is unique in a recipe book. I’m excited about trying some of
these snacks instead of relying on junk food. Additionally I like that at the
end of each recipe it shows serving size and nutritional information including
number of calories, grams of fat, carbohydrates, fiber, sugar, and protein.
To peak your interest, I selected an example of a days’ worth
of healthy eating. Start with Cookie Dough Overnight Oatmeal for breakfast, Slow
Cooker Chicken Corn Chowder for lunch, followed by a dinner with Apple Bacon
Feta Turkey Sliders with a side of Zucchini Tots. You can’t forget dessert which should be the Strawberry
Pretzel Dessert. Simple, delicious, and healthy!
I received this book
free from the publisher through the BookSneeze®.com book review bloggers
program. I was not required to write a positive review. The opinions I have
expressed are my own.
