My family and I are trying to eat healthier because all our doctors told us that we should。 My dad's doctor told him that the Mediterranean diet is really good， so I decided to pick this cookbook up。 Man I am glad I did and there are some many recipes I want to try。 This book as something for everyone， from someone who will eat anything to the pickiest of eaters （like my dad and myself）。 Recipes were very easy to follow and I really like the pictures they had in the book。 I will definitely buyin My family and I are trying to eat healthier because all our doctors told us that we should。 My dad's doctor told him that the Mediterranean diet is really good， so I decided to pick this cookbook up。 Man I am glad I did and there are some many recipes I want to try。 This book as something for everyone， from someone who will eat anything to the pickiest of eaters （like my dad and myself）。 Recipes were very easy to follow and I really like the pictures they had in the book。 I will definitely buying a physical copy of this book as soon as I can。 I want to thinking Netgalley and Quarto Publishing Group for letting read and review this book。 。。。more

Chef and Registered Dietitian Nutritionist Michelle Dudash has created a cookbook of healthy， low-carb recipes using accessible ingredients representing food from across the Mediterranean region。 The book starts with a brief explanation of the low-carb diet and staples of Mediterranean cuisine， followed by over 100 recipes。 Note that while some of the recipes could be included in a ketogenic diet， this is intended for a more moderately low-carb diet of less than 130 grams of carbohydrate per day Chef and Registered Dietitian Nutritionist Michelle Dudash has created a cookbook of healthy， low-carb recipes using accessible ingredients representing food from across the Mediterranean region。 The book starts with a brief explanation of the low-carb diet and staples of Mediterranean cuisine， followed by over 100 recipes。 Note that while some of the recipes could be included in a ketogenic diet， this is intended for a more moderately low-carb diet of less than 130 grams of carbohydrate per day。The recipes are all gluten free， and many are vegetarian。 If you’re not used to eating a gluten-free or low-carb diet， you may need to purchase a few basics， such as almond flour and flax seed meal， but these shouldn’t be too hard to find。 Most of these recipes used ingredients I already had on hand。 The recipes are clearly written with helpful notes and include number of servings， prep and cook time， and basic nutrition information （very helpful for those of us who have to count carbs）， as well as some suggested variations。 The recipes do assume that you already have some cooking knowledge， and a few times I was wishing the author had provided further preparation instructions。 I’ve tried quite a few of the recipes， with somewhat mixed results。 The Creamy Spinach Pie with Almond Flour Crust was delicious and fairly easy to prepare。 The Breakfast Salad was a lovely surprise。 The Caramelized Onion and Red Lentil Soup was excellent—it’s a quick and easy meal with bright flavors。 The Chickpea Fritters tasted ok， but were very crumbly and difficult to handle。 The Mediterranean Pizza with Almond-Coconut Flour Crust tasted fine， but again， the crust was very crumbly and the dish was drier than we expected。 The sauce was delicious raw， but less appealing in the final dish。 The Sheet Pan Chicken with Bell Peppers and Pecans was easy to prepare and a satisfying meal。 I thought the Vegan Chocolate Mousse with Aquafaba would be a disaster， but it actually turned out well after it had time to chill。 It makes a rich vegan dessert， especially nice topped with fresh raspberries。The back matter provides a few additional resources and an index that includes both ingredients and recipe names。My overall impression is that this cookbook offers some nice choices for those wanting to try a healthy， low-carb diet。 With the nutrition info provided， it’s a great choice for diabetics。 Some of the recipes have fairly subtle flavors or the textures weren’t quite what I wanted， so I will make adjustments when I try them again， but this was a good source of new ideas。I was provided an ARC through NetGalley that I volunteered to review。 。。。more

This book is a recipe book of low-carb meals that are based on a Mediterranean flavour。This book is divided into 6 main recipe chapters:- Starters- Plant-Based Meals- Seafood- Meats- Vegetable Sides- DessertsThe recipes use both imperial and metric measurements。 Not all the recipes come with a photograph but they do include calories， nutritional information， serving size， preparation， and cooking times。 Some of the ingredients terms are not British such as scallions （spring onions） or zucchini （ This book is a recipe book of low-carb meals that are based on a Mediterranean flavour。This book is divided into 6 main recipe chapters:- Starters- Plant-Based Meals- Seafood- Meats- Vegetable Sides- DessertsThe recipes use both imperial and metric measurements。 Not all the recipes come with a photograph but they do include calories， nutritional information， serving size， preparation， and cooking times。 Some of the ingredients terms are not British such as scallions （spring onions） or zucchini （Courgette）。I'm not overly keen on the way the instructions are laid out。 Often there seems to be quite a lot going on in one paragraph - I find it easier to follow things in smaller steps。I received this book from Netgalley in return for an honest review。 。。。more

Using her training as a dietician， nutritionist and cookbook author， Michelle Dudash delivers a well organized， easy to understand guide to combining low carb and Mediterranean meals in Clean Eating Kitchen: The Low-Carb Mediterranean Cookbook。After explaining the low carb and Mediterranean diets， Dudash lists the ingredients you will be using and how often to include them in your diet。 She then gives tips to get you started and lets you know that most of the dishes will take 30 minutes or less Using her training as a dietician， nutritionist and cookbook author， Michelle Dudash delivers a well organized， easy to understand guide to combining low carb and Mediterranean meals in Clean Eating Kitchen: The Low-Carb Mediterranean Cookbook。After explaining the low carb and Mediterranean diets， Dudash lists the ingredients you will be using and how often to include them in your diet。 She then gives tips to get you started and lets you know that most of the dishes will take 30 minutes or less to prepare。 Then it’s on to the beautifully photographed recipes！ Recipe notes only add to each dish。 For instance， tabbouleh salad is improved by using more parsley than bulgur wheat。 The addition of chick peas， quinoa and feta cheese adds protein。 White bean stew prepared in a slow cooker can be prepared in minutes and will be ready to eat in a few hours。 Sautéed salmon with figs is perfect entree for family or dinner with friends。 Side dishes are included as are desserts。This book belongs on the shelf of anyone who wants to serve nourishing， healthy meals without spending too much time in the kitchen。 As Michelle Dudash writes “Perhaps most importantly， enjoy every bite！ Life is short。 Eat flavorful food that energizes you， brings you joy and gives you vitality， inside and out。” 5 stars。Thank you to NetGalley， Quarto Publishing Group and Michelle Dudash for this ARC。 。。。more

I love Mediterranean food and also try to follow a low carb diet。 The recipes seem very easy to follow， with ingredients fairly easy to buy， but I found some of them quite expensive， for instance pine nuts， squid and various cheeses。 I personally prefer books where I can find most ingredient in my store cupboard or local store， rather than specialised trips to the large supermarkets or markets。For me personally， I found most of the recipes to be a little too bean and lentil heavy。 There are some I love Mediterranean food and also try to follow a low carb diet。 The recipes seem very easy to follow， with ingredients fairly easy to buy， but I found some of them quite expensive， for instance pine nuts， squid and various cheeses。 I personally prefer books where I can find most ingredient in my store cupboard or local store， rather than specialised trips to the large supermarkets or markets。For me personally， I found most of the recipes to be a little too bean and lentil heavy。 There are some great vegetarians and vegan meal choices。 I would have also like to have more pictures in the book， I like to see what I am cooking rather than just read a list of ingredients。 I thought the nutritional value with each recipe was brilliant and makes any kind of diet much easier instead of you having to calculate everything yourself。There are a few things I will try from the book and add to my weekly meal planner to add some variety to our meals， but I am don't think it will become my go to recipe book。I received an advanced copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review。 。。。more

I love the seasoning and flavors of Mediterranean cooking。 I really thought this was going to be a diet plan， but it almost just seems more like a recipe book with low carb dishes。 I didn’t get a clear sense of what plan to follow， just recipes。 The introduction talks about how often to buy you produce and meats。 It’s suggested to buy fresh vegetables， meat， and seafood daily。 I don’t have the time or money for that。 The recipes are great and delicious， but very time consuming。 Sheet pan chickpe I love the seasoning and flavors of Mediterranean cooking。 I really thought this was going to be a diet plan， but it almost just seems more like a recipe book with low carb dishes。 I didn’t get a clear sense of what plan to follow， just recipes。 The introduction talks about how often to buy you produce and meats。 It’s suggested to buy fresh vegetables， meat， and seafood daily。 I don’t have the time or money for that。 The recipes are great and delicious， but very time consuming。 Sheet pan chickpea and broccoli dinner， took a long time considering it was just a sheet pan meal， but it was excellent。 That being said， this diet includes wine！ Not many allow it！ Also， ‘some sweets’。 That’s pretty vague to me of this is a diet plan to follow。 I voluntarily reviewed this after receiving a free copy。 。。。more

I have enjoyed a low carb diet for many years and for me， many of these recipes did not read low carb。 Lower carb maybe， if you ascribe to an American diet。 I also didn't feel the recipes were uniquely Mediterranean which seemed a shame。 I would have loved the addition of more photographs because a cookbook without images for so many meals means that you regrettably skip what may be interesting offerings。 I also would suggest better staging for a few dressed plates which looked a little unappeti I have enjoyed a low carb diet for many years and for me， many of these recipes did not read low carb。 Lower carb maybe， if you ascribe to an American diet。 I also didn't feel the recipes were uniquely Mediterranean which seemed a shame。 I would have loved the addition of more photographs because a cookbook without images for so many meals means that you regrettably skip what may be interesting offerings。 I also would suggest better staging for a few dressed plates which looked a little unappetizing。 As an effort it was still a good one because I did snip a recipe here and there- though I would not use grapes in a low carb diet personally I thought the photo of the blue cheese and walnut pork to be so beautiful that I was influenced immediately。 I'll certainly make an altered version of it tomorrow。 。。。more

As an Italian-American， I struggle with cutting carbs in my diet。 This book has recipes that are familiar in a Mediterranean diet but with a low carb twist。 The recipes are easy to follow with ingredients that are easily accessible。 I do wish there were a few more pictures bc a） the pics that are in the book look incredible and b） some of the recipes are harder to imagine how they will turn out。 So a pic of the finished dish would be helpful。
