Coffee Breakfast

With the holidays behind me, I was ready to quit all the cheating and Paleo treating, and I wanted to start the New Year off right. I wanted to go super squeaky-clean Paleo. Diane Sanfilippo’s latest mouth-watering masterpiece hit bookshelves just in time. Over one week, I made six recipes out of The 21 Day Sugar Detox Cookbook, and spent countless hours drooling over even more gorgeous photographs and meticulously crafted recipes and meal plans.

Whether you are sugar detoxing or not, I highly recommend everyone pick up a copy of The 21 Day Sugar Detox Cookbook for guilt-free meals that are simple enough for weeknight cooking, but so tasty that each meal feels like a great delight. Before purchasing, here are a few thoughts to consider.

Finally, a “strict” Paleo cookbook!

That’s right, people. No “Paleo-ish” recipes here. You can cook every single recipe cover-to-cover any night of the week and not feel guilty about too many Paleo treats, filled with honey, maple syrup, or other “Paleo” sweeteners. (Although, Diane certainly does supply a fair amount of treats sweetened only with green apples—to my great delight.)

Similarly, I was delighted to find very few recipes laden with calorically-dense almond meal. With Diane’s book, I’m able to rest easy, and fill up on wholesome, delicious food that will help me meet my fitness and aesthetic goals. It’s for this reason that The 21DSD Cookbook will be the first that I grab from now on.
