On this Meatless Monday, I’m proud to announce that Confessions of a Red Hot Veggie Lover 2: Lacto Ovo Vegetarian Recipes is finally published. In honor of the new release, I’m posting cookbook reviews, a free vegetarian recipe and a cookbook giveaway! But first, a little about the new ebook.
About the Cookbook
It features three wonderful new
Meatless Monday recipes, including Dreamy Jambalaya, which you’ll find below. Most
of the recipes have a fun hint as to their ingredients’ nutritional value under
their title. There’s also a Resources page, with links to my favorite
vegetarian foods. Some of these companies have vegetarian coupons and more
products on their sites, so they’re worth a peek.
Confessions of a RedHot Veggie Lover 2: Lacto Ovo Vegetarian Recipes is available as an ebook only at Amazon for $2.99. Borrow it FREE on Kindles with Amazon Prime!
The healthy recipes cover biscuits, omelettes, oatmeal, beans, pasta, potatoes, rice, sandwiches and desserts/snacks. Some are ideal for empowering your kids to eat healthier and become more self sufficient in the kitchen. For instance, Fruity Patooty Burrito is a quick and easy after-school snack your kids can assemble themselves from pre-chopped ingredients and seasonings kept within easy reach. Many recipes are suitable for women experiencing the ups and downs of menopause. The very first recipe, Kiss Your Brain Biscuits, features soy flour. According to WebMD, soy, which contains phytoestrogens, has been shown to ease the discomfort of hot flashes and restore cognitive functions in many menopausal women under the age of 65.

Cookbook Reviews
You do not have to be a vegetarian to
enjoy these easy to make recipes. In fact, the meals taste so good that
you forget you're eating totally healthy! My favorite dish that I can't get
enough of is the 'One Bowl Fritatta,’ an awesome omelet like you've never
eaten before. – Lori Bourgeois, La-La’s Home Daycare
My hubby loved the omelettes and usually he
only wants an omelet with sausage or bacon in it! With these recipes, you
really don't know there isn't any meat in them unless you prepared the meal or
unless you were told. There are great recipes for your children to help
you prepare, and I promise it will help you get your little ones eating more
veggies! I have 7- and 3-year-olds. Sometimes it is difficult getting
them to try new things, but I didn't have trouble with these! – Jenni Blizzard

ReplyDeleteAgreed. However, there are some people who have a sensitivity to soy which can reverse the estrogen effects and create inflammation, instead. It is important to know what works within each individual from a dietary stand-point ESPECIALLY when the great parting of the hormonal sea starts happening. There are a variety of sensitivity tests that can be done from a scientific stand-point with a good nutritionist or naturopathic physician. If one is so inclined, an energetic approach can be taken with "applied kinesiology." Hope this helps! :)
