Cauliflower Power by Lindsay Grimes Freedman

Here is the book summary:

Low in carbs, fats, and sugars, and naturally packed with vitamin C, cauliflower is the super-est of all superfoods. Why cauliflower? It’s a chameleon and can take on any flavor and texture. In her first cookbook, food blogger and recipe developer Lindsay Grimes Freedman brings her expertise in creating delicious, healthful, and practical recipes to one of the food world’s most trending topics: cauliflower. With more than 75 recipes built around the five ways to prep cauliflower (as a whole head, florets, steaks, riced, and meal), Freedman transforms this versatile veggie into smoothies and scones, pizza crusts and pasta sauces, and sides and salads. Super swaps include falafel made with cauliflower and Caesar salad made with a cauliflower-based dressing, even cauliflower nachos, “bacon” bits, tots, and French toast. The recipes are healthful and easily adaptable for any diet without skimping on flavor or satisfaction. By harnessing the power of this anti-inflammatory veggie, readers will reap all the benefits of a plant-based diet without missing out on any of the good stuff.

And now, my review:

Lindsay Grimes Freedman writes up some pretty nice recipes in Cauliflower Power.  From every meal time, including deserts, to all sorts of creative ideas like making slices into cauliflower steak.  We can’t knock it until we try it.  So, for all those who are looking for ways to change it up and insert cauliflower into their cooking, this book brings loads of inspiration.

And now, my review:

Low Carb On The Go is not a book about not eating carbs but about eating healthy carbs and finding exchanges for the not so healthy carbs.  Their drinks look delicious in the full-color pictures the book provides.  My favorite recipe is what the authors call “Oopsies” which is a protein bun made out of eggs and cream cheese and it is a heavenly yum for your avocado and tomato sandwich.  They’ve included different types of bread, breakfast ideas, salads, soups, and desserts.  My favorite part is the full-color pictures which I think makes a cookbook a great cookbook.  And I’m looking forward to planning my menu for the week with these great ideas.
