Danielle Walker is quickly becoming one of my favorite people: transforming her life and saving it through food. A true testament to the power of food as medicine. Read her story about her own health transformation here. The author of the popular blog, Against All Grain, Danielle has now come out with a 150+ recipe book of the same name – and at first glance all I can say is: WOW.

Every page looks like a painting – a perfect picture capturing a homey sense of comfort and delicious-looking foods. If I could, I’d jump into the photos and eat my way out of each and every page :) She’s got a recipe for just about anything you’d want from your pre-paleo plate. Waffles? Got it. Sandwich bread? Yep, it’s in there. Pies? Ohhhhh yes. You know how big of a dessert fan I am and her dessert section is phenomenal.

But treats and cheats aren't the only thing valuable in the book. Danielle's got all the bases covered here – from the basics like sauces & almond milk, to main courses and sides that bring the meat to the table. I personally love the “For the Kid in All of Us” section including such faves as fruit roll-ups and crispy chicken tenders. We should never lose the kid in us.

What’s great about Against All Grain is how accessible this book is to people outside the Paleo community. Gluten-free folks will love it, and I guarantee if you cook something out of this book for a grain-eater, they’ll love you and never know it was Paleo. I cannot tell you enough how beautiful this book is – I might just leave it on my coffee table it’s that good-lookin.

Against All Grain is available now, and Danielle was kind enough to share her recipe for – wait for it – MINT CHIP ICE CREAM. Yes, you heard me right!
