We're going to eat for ourselves. And we're going to stop apologizing for being human beings with bodies.

If our dysfunctional relationship with food and our bodies is the tower we've been trapped in our whole lives, then Emma Myles may have just built the delicious ladder to get us out. Featuring over 55 recipes, this one-of-a-kind cookbook offers a way back to food enjoyment and is filled with candid personal stories that remind us how we lost sight of it in the first place. Speaking from experience, Emma carves a tunnel through the unrelenting maze of diet culture and provides all of us with a clear pathway to break free.

✧ They tell us "healthy" means restrictive. We prove them wrong with accidentally vegan dishes like Smokey Crispy Tofu & Miso Glazed Cabbage and Sweet Potato Coconut Stew.
✧ They say our salads are only good for us if they are used as punishment. Charred Hearts & Buttermilk Ranch and Broiled Hasselback Caprese beg to differ.
✧ We're told that all the foods we love from our childhoods are off-limits as adults. Homemade strawberry Pop-Tarts(R) and Kevin McCallister's plain cheese pizza would like to speak to the manager.

We've been slowly influenced away from our food joy without ever realizing we had a choice. This is our chance to reclaim the mental peace and connection that comes with cooking. It's time to treat mealtime like the celebration it was always meant to be. It's time to get off the diet culture highway at the next exit and head straight for The Trigger Kitchen.
