Preparing quality food is among the most caring things we can do for ourselves and the people we love. That’s why Well Fed: Paleo Recipes For People Who Love To Eat is packed with recipes for food that you can eat every day, along with easy tips to make sure it takes as little time as possible to get healthy, delicious food into your well-deserving mouth. If you count meals and snacks, we feed ourselves about 28 times each week. All of the Well Fed recipes – made with zero grains, legumes, soy, sugar, dairy, or alcohol – were created so you can enjoy your food every time. Calorie-dense ingredients like dried fruit and nuts show up as flavoring, instead of primary ingredients, and there’s a balance of Omega-6 and Omega-3 fats, so you don’t have to worry about that stuff – you can just eat. The two essential tricks for happy, healthy eating are being prepared and avoiding boredom. Well Fed explains how to enjoy a “cookup” once a week so that you have ready-to-go food for snacks and meals every day. It will also show you how to how to mix and match basic ingredients with spices and seasonings that take your taste buds on a world tour. The recipes are as simple as possible, without compromising taste, and they've been tested the recipes extensively to minimize work and maximize flavor. Where it makes sense, directions explain how you can cut corners on technique and when you'll have the best results if you follow the instructions to the letter. Some of the dishes are "project recipes," so prep and cooking times are included to indicate which are quick enough for weeknights and which are perfect for lazy Sunday afternoons. With 115+ original recipes and variations, this book will help you see that paleo eating – too often defined by what you give up – is really about what you'll gain: health, vitality, a light heart, and memorable meals to be shared with the people we love.

What People Are Saying

"Well Fed is more than just a cookbook—it's the definitive resource for every Paleo chef (and aspiring chef)... This more-than-a-cookbook book has the potential to revolutionize your food-life..."

—Melissa & Dallas Hartwig, creators of the Whole30 program.

Review

''Well Fed is more than just a cookbook - it's the definitive resource for every Paleo chef (and aspiring chef)... This more-than-a-cookbook book has the potential to revolutionize your food-life...'' -- Melissa & Dallas Hartwig, authors of It Starts With Food

''In addition to the beautiful photographs and delicious recipes, this cookbook does something unique in the genre of food preparation - woven throughout the book is the theme of how to put fantastic meals on the table in the least amount of time.'' -- My Athletic Life

''This is a cookbook for people who like to eat. Do you enjoy food? (You do.) Do you enjoy delicious, easy to prepare dishes? (You do.) Then I'd call Well-Fed the only Paleo-oriented cookbook you need.'' -- Three New Leaves

''[S]he turned her system into a cookbook full of mouthwatering recipes. But it's more than just a collection of recipes. It's a guide -- a how-to manual geared at helping the laziest among us run our kitchens and feed our families... Like Melissa, this book has attitude, and the recipes have spunk.'' -- Food Renegade

''Melissa's sassy and fun attitude also comes through in the design and text of the book. I'm not sure I've ever laughed out loud reading a cookbook before.'' -- --Breaking Muscle

About the Author

Surprisingly, Melissa Joulwan’s favorite vegetable is cabbage. Her favorite spice is cumin. Her favorite book is Jane Eyre. Her favorite city is Prague, and her favorite band is Social Distortion. You might have known all of that already if you follow her blog The Clothes Make The Girl. The Clothes Make the Girl is an unusual title for a blog that’s about her tales of triumph and failure in the gym, in the kitchen, in life. She admits to being a sucker for the perfect little black dress and stompy black boots and sparkly what-whats. She may have started the blog going one way and wound up in entirely another. She says that her desire to be fit and healthy is almost matched by her love of punk fashion and high glamour. Well Fed is her second book. Her first is Rollergirl: Totally True Tales from the Track, a memoir of her experiences as one of the founders of the Texas Rollergirls, the original Flat Track Roller Derby league. She has appeared on the Today Show and Good Morning America – in her roller skates and fishnets. These days, she’s hung up her skates, and her workouts are just as likely to include yoga and meditation, as lifting heavy things and trying to stay ahead of the CrossFit stopwatch. She lives in Austin, Texas, with her husband Dave and their cat Smudge.

You doubt and doubt while you're cooking. But the completed dish always comes together so well.

March 3, 2016

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

I and my significant other have decided to cook through an entire cookbook. We chose this one on a whim since we both try to eat somewhat paleo, it had great reviews already, and it didn't have a ton of recipes that would a while to get through. I am very glad we decided on this one.

Our first recipe was her "The best chicken you'll ever eat." Boy was it delicious. My significant other who has a cooking background doubted some of her methods, but we decided to stay true to the recipe with some tiny modifications to give it a shot. We ate the chicken with her mayo recipe, which we turned into both her ranch dressing and her creamy Italian dressing and put it all on a bed of salad. Let me tell you, we ate in silence while watching our current favorite show, and when we finished we turned to each other and both agreed that that was freaking delicious meal! To top it all off there were a ton of leftover chicken and the next day it tasted even better.

Our second adventure was her Moroccan meatballs over a bed of Cauliflower rice pilaf (with apricots, raisins, and pine nuts). We used only 1 lb lamb and mixed it with 1 lb ground beef (to help our wallets). The meatballs didn't look like the picture which made me sad, but they did have very good flavor. Plus, the sweetness from the dried fruit in the rice was an amazing touch. Again, like the chicken this dish tasted so much better the second day. However, it was not pretty all mixed together in my lunch container at work. It looked like mush and I had trouble stomaching it until I realized how delicious it was tasting.

Today we decided to go with the Cinnamon Beef stew (we had to forgo the gremolata that was suggested because we forgot to buy the orange). We still had a half portion of unused cauliflower rice from the meatballs so we made that into her alternate confetti rice recipe. Just like the other two recipes we doubted it while we were cooking (when will we learn?). But once you sit down and have everything on a plate in front of you it all works out so well. Our one complaint about this recipe is that the cook time was only 90 minutes for a beef stew! This took almost an hour more than that to get the meat tender. And we did make another small modification of using beef broth instead of water.

All in all, we are very happy with this purchase. So far all 3 entrees, 2 sides, and 3 sauces have come out incredibly well, and we are excited to make are next recipe in a few days. We're looking at the Meatza Pie with her Greek broccoli. The picture doesn't look too appetizing, but she has given me every reason to trust her so far, so we're expecting tasty things from this next dish.

Everything tasted amazing, and was easy to make!

I was on the whole 30 Diet when a friend suggested I buy this book. After making several of the recipes in this book and feeding it to friends, I can hands down say this book taught me how to make some of the yummiest dinners I have made to date! I highly suggest it to anyone who is a beginner, or expert.

Betcha Can't Buy Just One!

December 17, 2011

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

I have been moving toward a full paleo eating style for the past year and a half and I literally own every "paleo" cookbook available on Amazon. I wish I had this cookbook when I was just getting started. It is the very best of my whole collection -- and that is saying something because I really enjoy a couple of the others. Well Fed is absolutely chock full of deliciousness. Every recipe WORKS. It turns out as described and wows my family. I am doing a "cookup" right now to stock my fridge and pantry for a week of healthy eating -- something I originally learned from John Berardi over at [...] -- and the ideas in this book are going to take my weekend cooking ritual to an even higher level of healthiness and diversity.

I have never before cooked every recipe in a cookbook. I am committing that I will be making every single recipe in this book before the end of 2012. Yes - it is that good. In fact, I have never reviewed any of the many books I have purchased from Amazon, but this author deserves a shout out. Her writing style is authentic and engaging, and the information she shares is fresh and useful (did I mention fun and edgy as well?). I will be buying multiple copies today so I can gift them to some very lucky people. Thank you for your hard work in putting this lovely book together, Melissa Joulwan. You are a kitchen goddess.

Delicious recipes, but prep time is off by about half an hour :)

February 10, 2015

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

I read this book on my Kindle first, and liked it so much and it was highly recommended by my friend who turned me paleo in the first place, so much that I had to purchase a hard copy.

The quality of the book itself is not bad but it's not the greatest. A lot of reviewers were complaining that their book fell apart and while mine is holding together just fine, I would say that it's not the best quality of cover/material but that's minor and not the reason I'm giving it a 4 star.

My big annoyance with this book - which my friend who LOVES the book also agrees - is her prep times: 5 minutes!!! Whatever. The prep times are so off the charts that it's not even funny. Anything that says 5 minutes to prep, set aside a good 30 to 45 minutes IF you have help in the kitchen. And there's no 5 minute clean up with what you need to get these meals ready but the meals are delicious.

We used her spice mix and her sweet potato with pecans (well she uses squash but it's okay to replace it) and one of her meats. I also made the Waldorf Tuna salad today (I added some lemon juice too), it was all very delicious. The recipes ARE delicious, no doubt about it, and super healthy because, well, they are Paleo baby!

There are very few dessert recipes here so if you want to feed your sweet tooth with approved paleo desserts, look elsewhere. Overall, I like how she helps you prepare for your meals in advance, but we have yet to do the whole weekly cook-up.
