COPY ISBN
Registered dietician DiBiasi shows how common smoothies often run counter to intended health goals and breaks down the science so readers can understand the full health implications and make better choices. Featuring primarily meal-replacement smoothies, the book also has some snack-sized delights and mocktail flavors to add some fun. The recipes are divided into season and flavor categories, and DiBiasi stresses that different ingredients can be substituted while still keeping with her formula for a healthy and nourishing smoothie and providing even more flavor opportunities. For those looking to improve their diet, this book is useful to help guide food choices and try something new. References are included for those who are interested in further reading.
VERDICT DiBiasi’s first book is an easy-to-follow guide for filling and tasty, protein-packed smoothies. Libraries will want to strongly consider.
