Vegetarian Comfort Foods: The Happy Healthy Gut Guide to Delicious Plant-Based Cooking

Description

Food is the mind and body's single-most important form of nourishment. Our bodies' capacity for growth and repair directly correlates to the fuel we put into it, and food is that fuel. By eating mindfully, we can not only steer the course of our health to reach its peak, but enjoy the ride along the way. After a decade-long struggle with IBS, Jennifer Brown discovered that the path to health is no further than the walk to the refrigerator. Vegetarian Comfort Foods couples the healing power of whole, plant-based, mindfully-chosen food with creative recipes to please our palates and diminish our ailments. Starting with the necessary kitchen tools, pantry prerequisites, and cleansing instructions, the foundation is set for more than seventy-five recipes, such as: Berry-Rhubarb Smoothie Banana Walnut Pancakes Roasted Squash with Apple and Eggplant Warm Steamed Green Salad Tangy Lentil Salad Thai Red Curry And more

Colin Campbell Center for Nutrition Studies. Although diagnosed with IBS in 2001, she has been symptom-free since the fall of 2010, which coincides with her adoption of a plant-based diet. Jennifer is an advocate for nutrition education and an award-winning member of the National Association of Nutrition Professionals (NANP). She is the author of Happy Healthy Gut and lives with her husband and three children just outside of Vancouver, British Columbia.
