"The Paleo Chef" {Cook}Book Review

I'm back!!! Yes, I'm back!!! I apologize for such a long delay --- my life has been so crazy recently. I'm hoping *crosses fingers* to be able to keep up with this blog more this summer.....ha, a girl can dream, right?

Anyway, without further ado, here is my next book review....


The Paleo Chef

When I first got this book, I was really excited. The recipes looked really good and the fact that they were all healthy stuff made me happy. 

But as I looked through the book several times, I could barely find one that looked easy enough for a simple family dinner. These recipes look amazingly delicious, but for a girl who doesn't have 3 hours to fix dinner, this book isn't really for me. 

I do have to admit that I would like to try these recipes one day. The Apple-Berry Crumble, the Churros (with chocolate sauce!) and the Chocolate Smoothie all look really, really good. However, a lot of these ingredients we don't have: maca powder, coconut water, and ghee...most of the ingredients I had never heard of!

When I get the spare time (haha), I'd be interested in trying some of these things. But for someone who doesn't have a lot of time, this cookbook doesn't really have a place in my kitchen

Would I recommend this book to a friend: probably not, unless they love going all out for every meal. This cookbook has some really good recipes, but they aren't really time-savers.

What would I rate this book? Recipe quality: 5 stars 

I received this book from Blogging for Books in exchange for an honest review.



Thanks so much for reading! Be sure to follow through email or G+ and comment below with what your favorite healthy recipe is!!!
