PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
The latest book by Michelin-starred chef and TV personality Ramsay (Gordon Ramsay's Home Cooking) was inspired by his own fitness and healthy eating epiphany, and includes a wide variety of intriguing recipes for nutritious meals and snacks. While his intentions are good, some of the advice feels dubious or dated. For those who can't resist chocolate mousse, for example, "Go for an extra long run the next day as penance," he suggests. His section titles may be morally driven ( "Guilt-Free Snacks" and "Well-Deserved Treats"), but they include appealing recipes: maple soy kale chips, Cheesecake in a Jam Jar, and carrot cake macaroons. Lean breakfast offerings include quinoa-stuffed mushrooms with baked eggs, and for dinner there's a single-pan chicken dish with lima beans, leeks, and spinach. Other dishes include salmon ceviche with grapefruit, avocado, and mint; a venison carpaccio with celeriac slaw; and duck breast with braised fennel and orange gremolata. Fitness-minded recipes are filled with protein and carbs for energy and include peanut butter and jam pancakes, Indian fish curry, and a sushi salad bowl. Ramsay's selection of creative recipes makes good on his promise to make nutritious, healthy eating delicious.
