Share and Voice: Big Green Cookbook


Hello everyone! First off, yes I'm blogging about a cookbook. (Don't care if it isn't manly or what not, I like food, it's delicious.) So whenever I get bored, the mall seems to be the place that I always end up at. And my first stop is always Barnes and Noble (which is weird because one of my enemies on my Enemy List is 'reading'). While I was at B & N, I noticed a book that caught my eye, the Big Green Cookbook, by Jackie Newgent.

Like it's name implies, it's a cookbook that involves going green. So I checked it out, and it had some really good recipes in it. The thing I always hate about most recipe books is when the recipe has 45 ingredients. Like 8 different spices, and 3 different oils. Most of the recipes in this book had very few ingredients thankfully. Here's a little bit of a book description.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
"Going green" has spread to the kitchen! Big Green Cookbook is the first comprehensive, climate-conscious cookbook, ideal for both culinary novices and experienced cooks. Food and health expert Jackie Newgent reveals simple, practical, and sometimes even money-saving solutions for choosing and preparing food in planet-pleasing ways. It has never been easier to create everyday meals that maximize flavor while minimizing your environmental impact. Inside you'll find:
  • A green kitchen checklist

  • Over 200 delicious, easy-to-prepare, seasonal recipes that feature fresh, all-natural foods

  • Guidelines for going organic and tips for buying locally

  • Nutrition information and earth-friendly cooking tips with every recipe

  • Clever, new techniques for low-carbon cooking

  • An eco-friendly shopping guide and seasonal produce guide

----------------------------------------------------------------------

So if anyone out there is lookin' into getting a new cookbook or anything, I suggest trying this one out!
