I have all of the Well Fed cookbooks in addition to several other Paleo cookbooks: Nom Nom Paleo, Meals Made Simple, Paleo Perfected, and The New Yiddish Kitchen. I went Paleo about 3 years ago simply to try something different. Fortunately, I have no dietary issues that require this type of eating, but It did have a noted beneficial impact on my health. My good cholesterol levels soared and my bad dropped. I lost weight. I had more energy. I try to follow a Paleo diet as much as possible, but I do eat traditional foods on occasion. (I know I'm one of the lucky ones who can indulge in beer or ice cream without a major intestinal event.) Since I am the primary cook for my husband and 8 year old, I subject them to my Paleo-esque eating. And they are good sports about it, happily reviewing the dishes and giving honest feedback. I'm a mom and teacher so I don't have tons of time to cook as much as love to do it; so, I was excited to get this book for Christmas because I really liked the other Well Fed books.
Melissa Joulwan's style of writing is fun and easy yet thoughtful. She gives a lot of suggestions and information up front, which is very helpful for...

This is another great book from Melissa Joulwan! I have Well Fed and Well Fed 2 and I was really excited for this one to come out. She always has such great, flavorful recipes and the idea that I could get that in under an hour is amazing.
Method
I have bought cookbooks in the past where I have tried to make the dish in the estimated time only to have it take 2 or 3 times longer.That is so frustrating and makes for a late dinner! That is not the case in this book - Joulwan goes through her method for recipes making the cut and she has prepared them a number of times and needs to be able to make the recipe in 30-35 minutes or less because she gets that the rest of us don't cook all day every day. I really appreciate that she has done that and all of the recipes I have made have been in under an hour. No more super late dinners!
Intro
In all three of her books that I have, Joulwan writes an extensive intro before the recipes. I always find lots of good tips there about kitchen set up, food prep and some "basics" - this one is equally amazing. The potato tip alone is worth the price of the book!
Recipes
I LOVE her recipes - which...

I really like the Well Fed series cookbooks. As far as content goes...this one very possibly has the most recipes that we'll actually make of the three cookbooks. Although we like to cook, like everybody, it seems like there's never enough spare time to cook as much as we'd like. So, a cookbook focused on recipes that take less time is a welcome addition. We've looked through the whole thing, and have made several things. I also find it interesting that the author has picked some of the same types of recipes that we've independently found work very well on those time-crunched nights [homemade taco meat is delicious and very simple even when using actual spices and not a 'packet', and of course grilled burgers with salad, etc.].
Trying to keep the carbs down, I AM IN LOVE WITH the cauliflower-based 'rice' and 'mashed potatoes' substitute recipes that we learned about in Well Fed 2 (page 167). This book uses those ingredients in several dishes such as "Shepherd's Pie" (page 123) and "Dirty Rice" (page 129)...and I literally see no reason to ever eat potatoes or rice ever again! I also really liked the Sticky Orange Sunflower Chicken with Sesame...

I have Melissa's first two books already and like those. I bought this one and knew i'd like it, but instead, i LOVE it. So many easy tasty recipes! I am cooking my way through! and all the recipes are easy to follow, with timing! and also ingredients that arent weird. The weirdest one I have come across is Yuca, i have heard of it, but never attempted to cook with it, but i will now!
One the negative side, i have found that my pages are starting to fall out already. I emailed Mel about this and shes offered to replace it. I dont mind my pages falling out, im weird like that, gives it that well used feel, so wont have her send me a new one but so awesome that she offered!
Hopefully mine is a one off issue.
Buy the book! Cook the recipes! Especially her new ranch Dressing! O M G

Well, it doesn't get much better than this! I have used and loved the two previous WellFed books for the last few years and now to have an option that cuts down kitchen time for busy days is perfect! I love the easy to follow, delicious recipes that get me in and out of the kitchen, most of the time in less than an hour. During a Whole30 these books are my best friend with all of the compliant recipes. Aside from the recipes are tips and tricks that make cooking even more effortless. Love Melissa Joulwan's books!
