I actually think this is a solid book。 I hadn’t realized that she had issues with gluten， which means the entire book isn’t filled with gluten containing foods。 Her philosophy on eating was great to read， ideas we could all embrace。 The food sounded amazing but most of it is not something I’d have the time to cook。 I did find it odd that it includes lunch recipes。 I mean， who has time to make unique lunches every day on top of the breakfast and dinner recipes？ 😉

I enjoyed this cookbook， for the healthier type food （I'm not a huge fan of crazy healthy recipes but we are trying to make a shift in our diet） they seems like healthy but still tasty recipes and still some good indulgences。 But I also enjoy her stories and info about the other things she does in life to keep healthy and balanced。 I enjoyed this cookbook， for the healthier type food （I'm not a huge fan of crazy healthy recipes but we are trying to make a shift in our diet） they seems like healthy but still tasty recipes and still some good indulgences。 But I also enjoy her stories and info about the other things she does in life to keep healthy and balanced。 。。。more

Another great cookbook from GiadaJust like the title says all of this is Feel Good food。 Tons of recipes that are hearty yet healthy especially for the mom on the go。 I love how she includes beauty regimens as well

She lost the plot with this one。 If I wanted to read about yoga and healthy， I don't read Giada。 My least favorite of hers。 She lost the plot with this one。 If I wanted to read about yoga and healthy， I don't read Giada。 My least favorite of hers。 。。。more

I am a big Giada fan。 I don't understand why so many women talk so negatively about her， maybe because she's beautiful and they are jealous？ If she were unattractive would it be ok for her to dress like a normal woman？ Anywho， with that said， I liked this cookbook。 I liked her little tips on how to stay healthy。 The recipes were mostly a little too labor intensive for me because I would more than likely be eating alone as my husband and kids probably wouldn't eat them but I will。for sure give th I am a big Giada fan。 I don't understand why so many women talk so negatively about her， maybe because she's beautiful and they are jealous？ If she were unattractive would it be ok for her to dress like a normal woman？ Anywho， with that said， I liked this cookbook。 I liked her little tips on how to stay healthy。 The recipes were mostly a little too labor intensive for me because I would more than likely be eating alone as my husband and kids probably wouldn't eat them but I will。for sure give them a try。 。。。more

This isn't my favorite of Giada's cookbooks in general but it does have some of my favorite recipes。 The Kale Mushroom wrap in particular is awesome！ I love her writing， her health and beauty tips， and many of the recipes are just really good。 There are some that require special ingredients or equipment like juicers or chia seeds or expensive seafood， but most are accessible and easy to make。 I like her philosophy that healthy food should include all food groups and taste just as good。 Also， the This isn't my favorite of Giada's cookbooks in general but it does have some of my favorite recipes。 The Kale Mushroom wrap in particular is awesome！ I love her writing， her health and beauty tips， and many of the recipes are just really good。 There are some that require special ingredients or equipment like juicers or chia seeds or expensive seafood， but most are accessible and easy to make。 I like her philosophy that healthy food should include all food groups and taste just as good。 Also， the photography in this book is way better than her older cookbooks！ 。。。more

2 1/2 stars。The recipes in the book were okay- there are 2 or 3 that I am likely to make though I can't see making any of the others。 Mostly there are a lot of recipes similar to ones I already have so I just didn't find too many new ideas。 Add in the strange tips about packing， her beauty routine， what she carries in her bag， etc。。。 （does anyone care what Giada keeps in her bag？）。。。that were just weird & felt a little self-congratulatory。 I suspect Giada fans will adore this book， so perhaps I' 2 1/2 stars。The recipes in the book were okay- there are 2 or 3 that I am likely to make though I can't see making any of the others。 Mostly there are a lot of recipes similar to ones I already have so I just didn't find too many new ideas。 Add in the strange tips about packing， her beauty routine， what she carries in her bag， etc。。。 （does anyone care what Giada keeps in her bag？）。。。that were just weird & felt a little self-congratulatory。 I suspect Giada fans will adore this book， so perhaps I'm not the target audience。 。。。more

Why do recipes need so many ingredients and why in the world would I care how she washes her face？

A little to polished for my taste but a few good recipes。 Seems a good read for female teens。

Pictures of Recipes？ SomeCommentary on Recipes？ YesNutrition Facts？ NoRecipe style？ The recipes in here are nothing like her previous cookbooks。 No wonder she's so skinny， because she doesn't seem to eat the things she showcases to the rest of us。Any keepers？ Nope。 Pictures of Recipes？ SomeCommentary on Recipes？ YesNutrition Facts？ NoRecipe style？ The recipes in here are nothing like her previous cookbooks。 No wonder she's so skinny， because she doesn't seem to eat the things she showcases to the rest of us。Any keepers？ Nope。 。。。more

Lots of good infoThis book had a ton of excellent recipes and I really liked the fact she set up a month long meal plan using her recipes。 All the tips and tricks were fun go read。 I enjoyed the inside pen into her home life and daily routine。

Giada has made me excited about cooking and taught me valuable tips。 Love watching her and look forward to everything she produces。 Met her in Chicago in 2013 and Las Vegas in 2014 - sad to say I haven't had a chance to interact with her since。 Giada has made me excited about cooking and taught me valuable tips。 Love watching her and look forward to everything she produces。 Met her in Chicago in 2013 and Las Vegas in 2014 - sad to say I haven't had a chance to interact with her since。 。。。more

Not everyone will enjoy this cookbook as much as I do， but it really strikes the right chord with me at this time in my life。 I love to cook and bake， and am equally interested in healthy living and eating。 I had fallen into a bit of a rut， making the same healthy but plain food over and over， and this book has shaken me out of it with new recipes and ideas。 In the two months since I bought the book， several recipes have become regulars in my rotation。 I've lost count of how many times I've made Not everyone will enjoy this cookbook as much as I do， but it really strikes the right chord with me at this time in my life。 I love to cook and bake， and am equally interested in healthy living and eating。 I had fallen into a bit of a rut， making the same healthy but plain food over and over， and this book has shaken me out of it with new recipes and ideas。 In the two months since I bought the book， several recipes have become regulars in my rotation。 I've lost count of how many times I've made the Turkey， Kale and Brown Rice Soup （I can see why Giada says she lives on this soup in the wintertime！） and the Spiced Pumpkin-Raisin Cookies。 I've also made all the muffin recipes， the oatmeal variations， and the Quinoa with Black Beans and Hominy。 The recipes use seasonings brilliantly to provide plenty of flavor without relying heavily on fat， sugar and salt。 A bonus for me is that some （not all） of the baking recipes are gluten-free; I haven't been able to eat gluten for six years， and it's nice to be able to follow the recipes as written and not have to substitute ingredients。I appreciate Giada's expertise and enjoy watching her shows on TV， but I didn't buy this book to learn how I could be and look just like her， as the jacket copy and intro seem to assume。 I did enjoy the little lifestyle tips scattered through the book， though， and didn't find them intrusive。 。。。more

The photography in this book was lovely and it always helps me to SEE the finished product。 There were so many new and luscious ideas for chicken alone for me to try that I was motivated to start a grocery list right away。 Giada's health and beauty tips made the book even more fun。 。 。taking a glimpse into a celebrity chef's routines and home life helps me enjoy their media personas even more。 The photography in this book was lovely and it always helps me to SEE the finished product。 There were so many new and luscious ideas for chicken alone for me to try that I was motivated to start a grocery list right away。 Giada's health and beauty tips made the book even more fun。 。 。taking a glimpse into a celebrity chef's routines and home life helps me enjoy their media personas even more。 。。。more

A Christmas gift from a dear friend， this cookbook turned out to be amazing。 I loved the recipes， and I loved all the added detail pieces added to the beginning of each chapter， too。 I got so many ideas for things to make as well as thoughtful advice/inspiration on everything from morning routines to how to pack when traveling。 Definitely recommended！

There are a lot of recipes I want to try out of this book。 There is a lot of vegan， gluten free and fruit/veggie-heavy food， which is always good in my book。
