Pawsitive FEEDBACK!

I found your pet astrology section interesting. I never thought about it before but I guess it makes sense since we are all influenced by the stars and planets.  - Lisa - Costa Rica

Product Description:
Organic food is synonymous with premium quality, the deepest, richest taste, conscientious farming, and optimum health. It’s what we need to feed our kids, what we deserve to feed ourselves. And no one is doing more to popularize organic food that Myra Goodman, a mother, a creative cook, and most significantly, co-owner of Earthbound Farm, the world’s largest grower and purveyor of organic produce.

In Food to Live By, a dazzling full-color cookbook, Myra Goodman offers an utterly appealing, new casual style of cooking based on using the best ingredients, organic or otherwise. The dishes are irresistible: Sweet Corn Chowder. Spinach, Feta and Mushroom Quiche. Foggy Day Chili. Merlot-Braised Short Ribs with Cipollini Onions. Spicy Chicken Lettuce Wraps. Ginger Lime Salmon. Grilled Pork Tenderloin with Spiced Orange Sauce. Blue Cheese Smashed Potatoes. Coconut Lemongrass Sorbet. Cherry Panna Cotta. Farm Stand Carrot Cake. Plus, throughout are Farm-Fresh Ingredient boxes—on sorrel, corn, asparagus, artichokes— cooking and shopping tips, and health notes.

Before Myra and her husband, Drew, founded Earthbound Farm, they tended a small organic raspberry patch in Carmel, California—and Myra baked (and sold) amazing Raspberry Corn Muffins, plus jams, and more. Then Earthbound grew to offer organic lettuce mixes to local restaurants, and eventually the rest of the country. When The Organic Kitchen at Earthbound Farm opened, it was yet another venue for Myra, and the café’s chefs, to share delicious recipes and ideas. Now Food to Live By brings this organic revolution to everyone who cares about what they eat.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Not too impressed
My family bought me this book a few years ago when I was vegan- I think they must have just assumed it was a vegan cookbook. Anyway, it sat on my shelf for a while until I recently decided to start using it.

The recipes are easy to understand, and the pictures of the food are great, but the ratios seem off to me. I made the fruit crumble and the ratatouille and in both cases the vegetable/fruit part seemed to overwhelm the rest of the dish: the crumble part of the fruit crumble should ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Best cookbook ever!
I have just recently begun purchasing organic fruits, vegetables, snack items and dairy for my household. When I saw this cookbook I figured I would try it to see how it measures up to others. So far every recipe I have made has been UNBELIEVABLY great!!! They are easy to follow, you would think you are a gourmet chef. The ingredients for the recipes are not too far removed from your local store or farm market. I love that there is a story behind the Earthbound Farm to tell and that the sidebars are ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Organic Foods
The author extols the virtues of organic produce. In addition, the book is critical of toxic pesticides, conservation through elimination of toxic pesticides and and avoidance of synthetic fertilizers. A sample crop rotation regimen is depicted.

Organic food preparation is discussed in detail. i.e.
o raspberry scones
o summer harvest soup
o sweet corn chowder
o ginger carrot soup
o iced ginger melon soup and many others

This is an excellent work ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - So many different options!
Bought this as a gift for someone and everything she has made from it, has been great. Thus far, up to 5 different recipes. They're all different and she has shared them w/me and they are really incredible! Not just for those wanting organice food.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - a cookbook for those of us looking to add more natural foods to our diets
This cookbook wasn't exactly what I had hoped for. The recipes use a combination of farm stand and store-bought ingredients, some of which are a little more exotic than what my local grocery store may carry. My biggest caveat is that the recipes have no nutritional information listed and when you are dealing with something as luscious sounding as Raspberry Cream Scones, it would be easy to overindulge.
