Organic CookingI am fascinated with eco-friendly products, from clothing to vehicles to finding new ways to make life more organic and environmentally safe. Now I can cook organically with foods purchased at a local farmer’s market and specialty grocery stores.

There are a lot of different and amazing foods out there with various benefits and flavors that can enhance all of your meals. The Organic Cook’s Bible is just the thing to have on your kitchen counter.

When I first leafed through this book, I was excited to see a lot of new items I didn’t know about and how easy it was to incorporate into my meals. I love trying new recipes, and this book not only provides details of the fruits, vegetables and meats, but it also gives delicious recipes with a twist, such as Rosemary Pesto. It also teaches you how to pick the best produce when grocery shopping.

Organic produce is free from conventional pesticides, fertilizers, fecal matter, and any type of sludge from the sewers (are you grossed out yet?). Animals have not been fed hormones or antibiotics, which can still exist in the meat eaten by humans. When labeled organic, the food has followed strict rules and regulations and have been certified to be free of such possible contaminants.

I purchased this book and love it! It’s a great book to have at the coffee table as well for friends and guests to skim through. I refer to i before grocery shopping to see what new dishes I can cook up. Take a step towards a more organic lifestyle by eating organically. Remember, you are what you eat.
