Eating Purely is a collection of nutritionist Elizabeth Stein's favorite recipes. The recipes are healthy, easy, and delicious--and at times even indulgent (yes, it's possible to be both healthy and indulgent!). Eating Purely is focused on cooking with whole foods that are naturally gluten free, nutrient rich, free of refined sugar, and mostly vegetable based. The recipes in this debut cookbook are centered around Stein's five Eat Purely Principles, which will leave you feeling healthy and purely radiant. These principles are: Eat Whole Clean Foods, Focus on Plants, Add in Nutrient Rich Ingredients, Kick Inflammatory Foods to The Curb, Practice the 80/20 rule. Eating Purely includes more than one hundred fun and approachable recipes, ranging from brunch and salads to vegetarian mains and seasonal menus to celebrate with family and friends. Throughout Eating Purely, Stein also shares personal stories on health, exercise, family, entertaining, and starting her own natural foods company. Interwoven throughout the book is what Stein calls the purely scoop --time-saving cooking tips, benefits of ingredients used, resources for buying foods, and food and wine pairings
