Making Life Easier Robert Rose Cookbooks

One of my favorite gifts that I receive year after year are cookbooks. As I age, my cooking ages as well. Not only my cooking but my recipes, my style, and my interests. So this year was no exception when the folks at Robert Rose shared their newest Fall/Winter 2016 titles. The two that really jumped out to me, out of the almost two dozen titles, were The Compassionate Chick’s Guide to Beauty and The Complete Sous Vide Cookbook.

Cookbooks for Interests

DIY beauty, compassionate chicks guide to beautyAs you may or may not know, I have opted for a natural and alternative lifestyle with my essential oils, etc. To my delight when I saw The Compassionate Chick’s Guide to Beauty I squealed with excitement. Making my own soaps, lotion bars, tonics, air fresheners, cleansers, etc are my way to rid toxins in my life. This book is chock full of goodies with DIY Vegan, Gluten-Free, Cruelty-Free Makeup, Skin & Hair Product recipes that I have been terrified to wing on my own but have this fantastic recipe book at my disposal.

sous vide, cookbooksThe second book I received was The Complete Sous Vide Cookbook. What is Sous Vide you ask? Well it is the height of cooking at a precise, controlled temperature by placing food in a vacuum sealed bag. Tender meats, crisp vegetables, buttery fish, and mouthwatering desserts. Sounds too complex? Oddly enough, anyone can cook using sous vide in their home because I found everything I needed on Amazon.

Cooking for Any Topic

Oriya Organics

The health and fitness industry is all the rage. People everywhere are taking control of their health and the first step is often in the foods we eat. Protein shakes, meal supplements and superfood supplements help to fill the gaps in our often busy lifestyles. Personally I am always on the go and packing fresh cooked chicken with my carbs and veggies can be a bit cumbersome. Carrying a lunch bag with me is not ideal when I am at the gym, grocery store or working. Continue reading “Oriya Organics – Ultra Clean Superfood”
