Synopsis:
Beautiful and delicious gluten-free, grain-free, and dairy-free recipes, fully endorsed by Whole30.
As millions of people know, one of the toughest things about completing the Whole30 is figuring out what to eat the other 335 days of the year. Kirsten Buck, creator of Buck Naked Kitchen, struggled with her weight and chronic eczema for years before she transformed her life through food. She adopted a mostly paleo way of eating--gluten-free, grain-free, dairy-free, healthy fats, no refined sugars--and experienced dramatic weight loss. Soon after she went on to win the first-ever "Next Whole30 Star" competition and is now a certified holistic nutritionist, sharing delicious and beautiful recipes on her blog and Instagram with thousands of fans. From her Pesto Chicken Salad Sandwich for lunch, to Moroccan Lamb Stew for dinner, to the stunning Summer Berry Galette to satisfy your sweet tooth, there is something for every taste. In addition, there are recipe basics for making your own mayo, yogurt, salad dressings, tahini, and more, which prove that healthy eating doesn't have to break the bank.
Reviews
“[Buck Naked Kitchen] combines Kirsten’s education as a certified holistic nutritionist with her background and experience focusing on whole foods and creating healthy, approachable and delicious meals. Not only is every recipe gluten, grain AND dairy-free, did I also mention the Manitoba favourite: chicken tenders and HONEY DILL?! You gotta try it!”—Travel Manitoba
What I see in this book is a woman showing up as her truest, most authentic self, using food to speak to us, to connect with us, and to show us and herself love. Kirsten has brought her journey into the light, and the joy, vibrancy, and newfound confidence with which she both cooks and moves through this world glows through these pages.”—from the Foreword by Melissa Urban, Whole30 Co-Founder and CEO
“There are so many classic recipe staples in Kirsten's cookbook that it deserves a permanent place on every kitchen counter! I felt like she invited me into her home and showed me how to cook nourishing food from scratch. The photography is beautiful and Kirsten's approach to food is so effortless and natural.”—Joy McCarthy, bestselling author of Joyous Health and The Joyous Cookbook
