Synopsis
Every woman wants to eat her best. But eating well can be challenging during the best of times. During pregnancy it is aggravated with curveballs such as nausea, cravings, or life. Before you ruin your healthful intentions, check out The Well-Rounded Pregnancy Cookbook, which offers a compromise by providing 100 recipes that meet every mother’s needs by adapting them to her moods.
Feeling nauseous? Turn Pine Nuts and Golden Raisins into a lemony-soup. Craving comfort foods? Modify Asian Cabbage Salad into a traditional but healthy treat. Ready to shed your baby pounds? Transform Fettucine with Mushrooms and Slow-Roasted Tomatoes into a beautiful salad. Feeling good today? Try some Broiled Salmon with Caramelized Fennel and Sweet Onion paired with Crisp Roasted Sweet Potatoes. And the Lemon Cookies and Devilicious Cupcakes are great for any mood.
Easily customizable recipes also mean that mom-to-be and her family can sit down and enjoy the same meal, no matter how she’s feeling. With helpful tips and options that minimize prep time, The Well-Rounded Pregnancy Cookbook is a must-have for any expectant, new or not-so-new mother, who needs a flexible solution for preparing delicious, healthful, meals!

In The Well-Rounded Pregnancy Cookbook, she encourages you to tune in to your body’s needs and give yourself permission to honor your cravings.

October 02, 2007: I started flipping through the book today and read from the back first. What can I say? It's an opportunity to breathe. Honest, straightforward, simple, easy, informational and moving. I'm not pregnant and I loved the whole section on how to fill a pantry so as to never go hungry. This is exactly what I need as a new cook and a new wife, not just a new mom. All the extra little tips that have nothing to do with the recipes - like having frozen waffles, canned beans, frozen veggies and fruit on hand and how to make quick and delicious snacks with these items - are priceless! It's really not so much a cookbook as it is a guide and structure for how to create a healthy and easy way-of-life. It's also like a private journal but not just of the author's life, but also of the lives of other women. As a new wife who will one day want to be pregnant and have a family, this book is a great guide to help me prepare my kitchen and my body! - GT
