Pinch of Nom Home-Style Recipes for Health and Weight Loss
Growing up we all had our favorite dishes that our mom or grandmother would make of us, just because they loved us. But, most of them were calorically high and saturated in fats and sugars. While they may bring back fond memories, they may also be affecting our health negatively. I know it’s disappointing that many of the yummy recipes we grew up with are not good for us. And we may have packed on extra pounds enjoying these decadent dishes. But, the thought of giving them up or worse, restricting our foods or committing to a dismal diet with flavorless meals is not in any way appealing. But thanks to the innovation of 2 chefs and foodie authors, who themselves struggle with weight problems, they created a way to combine flavor with nutrition while slimming down. Enter the Pinch of Nom Cookbook.
The Pinch of Nom cookbook features 100 healthy recipes that taste like grandma’s cooking, but with healthy and nutritious ingredients that will banish the bulge. The authors have figured out a way to tweak the ingredients without affecting the flavor of some of your favorite recipes. And people are loving them while losing weight at the same time. Interested? Need some inspiration to lose weight? Read on!
The aim of this delicious book is to share scrumptious, tasty light recipes that won’t make you feel like you’re deprived of flavor or on a diet. You can prepare most of the recipes in under 30 minutes and they are made with ingredients that can be used again and again to save costs.
Their recipe strategies are set up for weight loss success. They are everyday light recipes that can be made at any time. They are easy to make, filling, and include lots of wholesome zero-point-style food ingredients. Plus, they also include weekly indulgent recipes that can be used in moderation when you feel you need a treat. Their ‘Special Occasion’ recipes you may want to make for a birthday, the holiday season or other special moments that deserve a delicious treat.
Each recipe is labeled with specific icons. This includes vegetarians, suitable for freezing and gluten-free. They also include prep time, cook time, number of servings and calories per serving. Some recipes will also share cooking and alternative ingredient tips to make cooking that much easier.
The only disappointing thing I found is that they did not offer any vegan recipes. But, the recipes are very diverse and can satisfy most taste buds. Here are some of the recipes you will enjoy creating. Cheeseburger Pizza, Wraps de Huevo, Honey Chile Chicken, Shakshuka, Campfire Stew, Bacon and Cheese Potato Skins, Tuna Pasta Bake, and Cheesy Garlic Bread to name a few.
