Summary

Say Bonjour to Green Cuisine--it's the new French way to be healthy, happy, and stylish, bien sûr! No one does food and lifestyle like the French! That's why the French approach to clean, green eating adds a dash of flair--or a drizzle of decadence--to even the humblest of fruits, veggies, and legumes. In this cheerful, charming cookbook, Rebecca Leffler shows you how they do it. She introduces her "best friend foods" like sweet potatoes and chia, whirlwinds through an entire rainbow of juices and smoothies, and keeps the focus on fitness, food, and fun in equal measures. Globally inspired, but with lots of French accents, all 150 plant-based recipes are free of gluten, soy, and refined sugar. Rebecca organizes them the natural way: by season. Feed your body what it needs during . . .Spring: Beet Rawvioli with Faux-mage, White Asparagus Velouté, Le "Chic" CakeSummer: Salade Niçoise, Cabinet Curry, "Split"-Second Banana Ice CreamFall: Sobeautiful Soba Salad, Beauty Bourguignon, Pancrêpes, Apple Tarte TatinWinter: Totally Wild Stuffed Squash, Amaranth Caviar, Happy Hazelnut Quinoa Bowl. Plus, enjoy Rebecca's mood-boosting tips year round: natural beauty treatments, illustrated yoga poses, and positive playlists to sing along with as you peel, mince, and stir. Having to choose between pleasure and health is so last season. It's time to say non to unhealthy foods and oui to color, flavor, variety, and smiles!

Library Journal Review

After living and working in France, -Leffler learned a few important lessons about the French approach to food: take your time, enjoy every bite, consume in moderation, and eat food that's in season. She puts a healthy spin on those ideas to create a book of vegan recipes that are free of gluten, soy, and refined sugar. Features such as yoga poses, music playlists, and food-based beauty products demonstrate her philosophy that food can be combined with other aspects of life to promote overall wellness. Taking center stage, however, are Leffler's easy, flavorful recipes that are accompanied by colorful photos and nutritional profiles of ingredients. Readers who don't have access to the occasional specialty ingredient will be glad for the concluding resource section. -VERDICT This work joins the great recent cookbooks that focus on healthy vegan eating and food sensitivities, such as Gena Hamshaw's Choosing Raw, Heather Crosby's YumUniverse, and -Lindsay Nixon's "Happy Herbivore" series. With so many choices, cooks who gravitate to Leffler will do so because of her unconventional blend of recipes and informational text that's peppered with puns, French phrases, and fun.-Jude -Baldwin, Coll. of the Siskiyous, Weed, CA © Copyright 2015.
