As to the recipes.....
- Most are easy; most are gourmet; most are healthy
- All will help you eat fresh, seasonal, local (we hope) fruits, vegetables and grains
- None use processed foods (well... ketchup, mustard, chicken stock....)
Naturally, whether or not the serving size suits you...
depends on appetite, activity level, and all sorts of stuff we know nothing about.
