"I'm new to Kimberly's books and while I love the idea of living a perfectly imperfect life, I'm disappointed that there is no Table of Contents or Index to help me find recipes. The sidebars with recipe suggestions don't really help me when I'm looking specifically for a recipe with avocado or quinoa for example. I honestly am perplexed that a cookbook wouldn't include an Index. Hmmnn...I'll be returning this."

Recipes for Your Perfectly Imperfect Life Everyday Ways to Live and Eat for Health Healing and Happiness Kimberly Snyder CN 9780525573715 Books Reviews
- I have been a fan of Kimberly Snyder for some time and own all her books, as well having cooked many of the recipes from the Beauty Detox series prolifically so was excited to see this next offering,
This book, like many of her other titles is part lifestyle guide, part cookbook and does contain over 100 plant based recipes. The thing I love most about this book is it is a "life detox" plan - how many traditional detox books do we seer that center around food only and a restrictive plan that will lose weight short term but is certainly not a long term plan and not a road map for a better life, which this book leans towards
The book begins by a brief introduction to the "life detox plan"which essentially is designed to help you feel better inside and out; its about self acceptance and loving ourselves just the way we are with some tweaks to help us be happier, healthier versions of ourselves. Then part one features the author sharing personal experiences and those of others she has worked with as we are taken through chapters such as clearing blocks that hold us back , clearing self judgement, approval addicts ( yes, that talking to everyone that needs "liked" comments to their social media -let it go and just like yourself) and guilt cleanse. This section is also peppered with advice for small steps we can take and also references recipes later in the book that tie into the given discussion. Its an easy read and interesting too.
Part two is the recipes Smoothies and bowls, salads, Starters and side dishes, soups and stews, entrees, brunch, kids corner and desserts and bars and this was the part that encouraged me to make this purchase as a I am collector of plant based recipe books. For the most part, the recipes call for general produce, nuts, seeds and spices but there are a few that have specialty ingredients but these can likely be adapted.
I think the recipes is the part that I was a little let down by and hence took off some stars - for example, the tempeh taco meat salad shows a plate where the tempeh is accompanied by a rather pedestrian looking salad that reminds me of something you would get free to begin your meal at a family style chain restaurant and the smoothie section features the old standard of how to make nut milks. Other 'dishes' include steamed veggies and asparagus with some almonds - very basic, very simple so I wonder if the intended audience is a very novice cook.
The entrees depends on your taste I suppose, but again I was not blown away by them - take a pasta dish for example with some store bought gluten free pasta, basil yeast, avocado and tomato?! It looked boring and sounded boring and certainly nothing I would want to make, and again taste dependent, but for me I am not into bolognese, shepherds pie or veggie burgers, so found it laden with more comfort dishes than I would like. The lentil love loaf does however look like something I will make and I did whip up the happy earth scramble which is easy and delicious. The kids dishes are really fun though and parents will love them - simple and easy!
This book is interesting and has some interesting information but sadly the recipes are a little lackluster for me but it might be just right for someone newer to a plant based diet! - I love Kimberly’s new book I just received it yesterday and have a snow day off so have time to read this and work on the new recipes. I love all of Kimberly’s books especially beauty detox power but this one I think will be my new favorite. The book has beautiful graphic design and photos, the message of the book is amazing not only the recipes . I’m just getting past a bad time in life when my wedding this fall was cancelled and have to try to love myself and cook for just myself again and start to love this new chapter of life that was unexpected and the message in the book and healing recipes are exactly what I needed. Thank you kimberly again the diet and lifestyle has made such a difference for me in all her books!
- The recipes exceed expectations because it is all grounded in something so much deeper - the first part of the book. I am feeling like this will be my new go-to reference for life advice as I adjust to much healthier ways. Letting go, finding true worth, connecting with that energizing oneness... it's something sublime and simple, forgiving for messiness, and that I am SO grateful to have in my hands to read. And those life recipes and kitchen recipes are changing my everyday! I love the veggie centric meals and genius gluten free baking!! Thank you Kimberly!!!
- I have followed Kimberly since 2013 and have all her books. This one is the one I have related the most. As a recovering perfectionist I'm always seeking for better ways to deal with my OCD personality. I've read different books from other authors about spiritual and personal growth. This book has a different approach on how to get rid of the blocks that don't let us see our real value. It shows us techniques we can apply right away on how to deal with guilt, shame, stop judgment and open our hearts to kindness and compassion for ourselves and others. Kimberly gives examples from her own life experiences that even though may not be exactly the same as mine the awkwardness and uncomfortable "negative" emotions are pretty much situations a lot of us can identify with. I tend to idealize people I admire and think they have it all figured out and have a perfect life. This book reminds me we are ALL on this journey and we can learn, enjoy and love our perfectly imperfect life.
- I'm new to Kimberly's books and while I love the idea of living a perfectly imperfect life, I'm disappointed that there is no Table of Contents or Index to help me find recipes. The sidebars with recipe suggestions don't really help me when I'm looking specifically for a recipe with avocado or quinoa for example. I honestly am perplexed that a cookbook wouldn't include an Index. Hmmnn...I'll be returning this.
- This book is easy to read and digest. Kimberly Snyder offers overall wellness information that is backed by scientific research and made relatable by telling personal stories. The theme is that everything in our bodies is interconnected - analytical mind, emotional feelings, physical body, and spirit - and simply eating organic, nutritious food and exercising is not all there is to our bodies’ wellness. This book provides simple lifestyle shifts that can easily become habits that keep you on the path of progress. I bought several copies to gift to friends because it feels so right to share Kimberly’s work.
