Health Nut: A Feel-Good Cookbook

I dog eared almost every page in this book and have already cooked through many recipes. They're all fire! As a cookbook author myself, I am honestly offended by the 2 star review person who didn't like this book because of the fat content (you try writing a book!!!). Healthy does not have to mean low fat, these recipes are loaded with nutritiously dense foods, encourage eating more veggies than you probably would otherwise, and does it all with grace and whimsy. It's the best health food book around, it reminds me so much of my favorite cookbooks from the 70s and 80s but is modernized in the perfect way. Just buy it already!!!

Great recipes, easy to make, successful, and a vibe of the California I knew in the 1960's and 1970's. Food is love.

i loooooove this cookbook. The recipes are delicious, healthy, and easy. i have dog eared almost all of them. The ones i have made, they are just delicious. Spring rolls, martha's Green juice, overnight oats. Do yourself and your tummy, as well as your health a favor and buy the book. She has alot of different cuisines in there : like Inidan, Indian, Mexican., fresh California produce recipes. . all of the best of california. yum!!!!

I am such a fan of Salad Freak and love Jess's whole energy, so I was excited to receive this book. It's been several months now of making recipes from Health Nut and I find almost every single one has issues. Either there's a discrepancy between the ingredients and the directions, or the proportions are all off, or the flavors just don't come together. I've had maybe 4 or 5 recipes work out that I've enjoyed. The rest are just miss after miss. It feels like this book came together super fast without every recipe being properly tested, nor the book receiving a real edit. The whole thing reads like a first draft.

A solid book. Decent recipes. Salad Freak was more appealing to me.This one didn't knock my socks off. I pre ordered and was not aware of the large hippy focus.Don't get me wrong, I am a child of the 70's and live in Boulder, CO but I don't get excited about all of the rando stories woven throughout. It felt like filler and something to fulfill a book 2 contract.The book itself is lovely, and well made. Nice photography, and the recipes themselves are decent.
