![Everyday Detox: 100 Easy Recipes to Remove Toxins, Promote Gut Health, and Lose Weight Naturally [A Cookbook]](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/710KovI5XhL._AC_UL116_SR116,116_.jpg)
I own and love Megan’s first book but I think I like this more as it takes every day meals – including those that appeal to kids / families and coverts them into a healthier, plant based option so the whole family can eat clean. I also think it’s worth nothing right at the start that the book is also priced more favorably than others in the category which is a nice change - yet the content is still as comprehensive and of the same quality as the higher priced competitors.
Detox has become somewhat of a fad, and often not a healthy one. There are numerous juice bars popping up that suggest that we sip nothing but green juice for 5 days -which yes, will detox you, but also does not work for families, those of us that do intensive workouts and too often than not, it will confuse the metabolism that will slow down as it tries desperately to preserve those limited calories. This book gets it right -clean, healthy eating that is good for the body and still has enough calories to satiate the whole family.
The book begins with some basic and practical information beginning with overcoming excuses for healthy eating , how the book will help you detox, how to use the book, time saving tips, an easy to follow shopping list or one for the budget conscious, and even a started 5 day meal plan idea. It is all easy to read, and encouraging without being condescending.
There are then 8 categories: Shakes and Morning favorites, salads and dressings, soups and sides, game day appetizers / on the go snacks, comfort food and casseroles, skillets and stir fries, sweet treats and finally healthier homemade staples – which between them feature 100 recipes. Also a stand out for this book – is there is a complete nutritional guide to each meal at the back showing calories, fat content, carbs, fiber and protein. I have so many cookbooks and interestingly the vast majorities in this category fail to include any nutritional information at all. It is different not having them attached to each recipe but also somewhat ingenious as if you are looking for a low carb or high protein meal -you can simply flip to these pages and let those guide you to your ideal dish.
Another stand out -simple to make meals and simple to source ingredients – nothing weird here, no need to source sea vegetables or Irish Moss here (yes I have other books that call for both !). The cashew butter spice muffins are delicious (flour and refined sugar free) ; the Thai salad is my go to for lunch and honestly I make this even simpler as Trader Joes serves pre shredded cabbage and carrots ready to go, the chickpea and avocado egg salad is also really fun and simple to make. I am no expert in the kitchen, so these were simple, easy and most importantly quick to make. I was also excited that my kids like the strawberry and cream freezer pops which are a nice alternative to the junk in the ice cream aisle.
This books stands out for its simplicity and the fact that those of us short on time but wanting to feed everyone in the family healthy meals that will actually be eaten, have so many choices. Great book, great price and love the concept!

Great recipes, flavor,and kid approved
Received this yesterday. Love it!I've already made the chocolate frosty shake ( oh my deliciousness!). Chickpea and avocado 'egg' salad ( even the kids ate it) sloppy joe stuffed sweet potatoes, again delicious ( we did add a little taco meat that I had leftover), but they were great on their own. And last but not least the strawberry cream pops got two thumbs up from everyone who's tried them so far. I haven't got mine yet😉But can't wait
