Vibrant Botanicals: Transformational Recipes Using Adaptogens & Other Healing Herbs [A Cookbook] Hardcover – April 27, 2021

This book is so well done! I am new to herbs so I needed a read which was manageable and not the size of an encyclopedia. This book, albeit does not cover all herbs on this planet, does a good job of mentioning quite many along with their medicinal benefits, followed by a few recipes on each. For a starter or for someone who's wanting to increase herbal intake in their lives, or wants to learn the basics and some valuable insights, this book will get you on the right path. Besides, the book is put together really well, high quality paper and photography, just overall impressive. Great job!

I have many herbal books at this point and this one is one of my favorites. It is full of information without being overwhelming. It also focuses on using herbs in food and drinks, which I really enjoy. While you can always take a capsule of herb, you get much better results and experience using the whole herb. I have made many of the recipes now and have thoroughly enjoyed all of them. The book itself is very beautiful and the recipes are easy to follow with common to find ingredients. Overall, I really enjoy this book and use it on a daily basis. Would highly recommend!

This is my third cookbook from Jenny @ Nourished Kitchen and it may be my favorite. As always, her recipes are delicious and nutritious and she writes in a way that is fun and educational. And the photography is beautiful! I really love some of the adaptogen recipes and the immunity broth, especially as we're all looking to bolster our immune systems right now. This is one of the rare cookbooks that gets stored in the kitchen.

This book is beautiful. Well-written with a ton of useful information. I have an herbalism background and I still learned a lot from what I have read so far. So many ways to infuse herbs into your food and drinks! Jenny is so knowledgeable and you can tell when you make her recipes. Highly recommend! Also, it stays open to the page you are using which I love in a cookbook!

The media could not be loaded. Wow! This book is an amazing resource for everything from immunity to sleep! I am learning so much! I already started my ferments and fire cider and can't wait to try them in a month or so.This book is beautifully photographed as well. It is full of helpful tips and easy to digest information. There is a whole section on sourcing and safety - which I really appreciate. This is a must have for anyone looking to learn more about herbal remedies and support. So glad I bought this one!

Great combination of clear written instructions, beautiful illustrative photographs, and tasty, healthful recipes. McGruther describes various adaptogens and other healing herbs as well as methods to use the herbs, then presents a variety of recipes featuring the herbs discussed. The recipes include fresh salads, hearty broths, and fresh drinks. References and a four-page index are included in the back. A beautiful and informative book.

I pre-ordered this book and it arrived on Tuesday. I was so excited to see it as I have been following Jennifer McGruther for many, many years! My daughter and I have both looked through this book and are amazed at all of the beautiful picture. We have already marked many recipes we want to make and cannot wait to get started. I see us making all of the recipes in this book. I am so glad to add this to my cookbook collection!

Beautiful pictures and simple easy to read yet educational without too much information. Very tantalizing options that seem very easy to create for yourself and your overall well being.
