Publisher Description
Eat Happy has 154 delicious grain-free, gluten-free recipes that are also free of any processed sugars. There are meats, fish, sides, soups, starters, casseroles, slow cooker recipes, breakfast dishes, and even desserts to satisfy any sweets craving you might have, all with virtually no sugar. If you are low carb, paleo, are wanting to keep autoimmune issues at bay, or just want to lose extra weight, Eat Happy gives you comfort food where you won’t miss the sugars or grains so your body and brain can feel happy from eating real foods.
In 2012, after almost ten years of being gluten free due to celiac, Anna Vocino found she was gaining weight faster than a tick on a labradoodle. Turns out the culprit wasn’t overeating or too much fat in the diet, but the pesky sugars and grains in all those gluten free comfort foods. When Anna started podcasting with Fitness Confidential author Vinnie Tortorich, she adapted her entire way of eating to do what Tortorich coined: NSNG—No Sugars No Grains. Sure enough, the weight dropped off, the inflammation due to celiac finally calmed down, and for the first time in her life, she learned what it meant to be truly happy about food.
All of Anna’s recipes are delicious, easy to make, and so satisfying, you won’t even know you’re eating healthy. Craving rich, decadent chocolate pots with fresh cream that are delicious but not fattening? Wanna make a grain-free pizza crust that actually helps you lose weight? Dying for pancakes, but you’ve committed to avoiding carbs? How about hearty shepherd’s pie, tater tots, sizzling ginger rice, all made with cauliflower instead of high carb rice and potatoes? Eat Happy offers low carb comfort foods to please the entire family.

Excellent Cookbook
I love this cookbook! Even though you can find many low carb, paleo, Adkins, etc... recipes online for free none compare to Eat Happy, if you truly want NSNG recipes who better to get them from but Anna! I have tried a handful of recipes and all are not only easy to follow but have such great flavor combinations. If you want delicious recipes without sugars and carbs you definitely need this cookbook! I cannot wait for Anna's second book to come out, I am looking forward to her adding some recipes for the instapot.
First time reviewing a cookbook
Actually, this is my first time buying a cookbook. The only others I have were gifts I got after graduating college. So far I' ve done the Salmon with lemon dijon basil sauce (although I substituted horseradish mustard for dijon) and the Shepard's Pie (twice). I loved the idea of substituting mashed potatoes with mashed cauliflower - though I recommend using sour cream instead of cream cheese. I can't wait to try many other recipes in this book. I never thought I'd find myself reading through a cookbook like an actual book.
