easy to follow tasty recipes
This quickly became the favorite cookbook that I own. The recipes are straight forward and easy to make. Great book for a single person or couple looking to make healthy meals. The book also includes meal plans which are an added bonus that I really liked. Nothing fancy, which is why I like it. Wish I had this book when I was in college.

GREAT BOOK
Its great to have someone with Chris Algieri's background, not only as a former boxing champion but as a nutritionist too. This book is nicely structured with recipes for breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, you name it! Along with information and knowledge one needs to arm themselves as they fuel their bodies! Who said healthy eating has to be boring and tasteless? This book is proof that healthy eating and cooking can be fun, colorful, tasteful and fueling!

Must have for any athlete.
I bought this book as a boxing fan knowing Chris Algeri is a great fighter and has been used as a chef/ nutritionist in other fighters camps. The book did not disappoint, he makes it easy to accomplish your goals, the recipes are easy and taste great.

Basic, simple recipes
The book is great for the most part, but some recipes require tweaking. I count macros so I bought this book to add to my arsenal of recipes. I’ve made several of the recipes. Most of them taste good, but some are definitely bland. I always test out the recipe as is before making tweaks. When I was making the Slow-Cooked Shredded Chicken, I was wary since the recipe did not call for any spices. However, I figured maybe the author knew something I didn’t. Wrong. It came out so bland, but was much better after I added seasonings. That’s the main reason I did not give it 5 stars. The recipes are very basic and easy to make. I would probably recommend this for someone looking to simplify their recipes or cut down on prepping time in the kitchen. This is very similar to The Bodybuilder’s kitchen. Some of the recipes mirror each other save for one of two modifications, but the layout is the same.

A MUST HAVE
This book is fantastic! It is about time a champion athlete with a nutrition/science background shares some of their secrets. Nutrition is so complex; yet author, Chris Algieri breaks it down so that anyone can be successful. I literally mean anyone, from a kid just starting to dabble with nutrition, to an older adult wanting to maximize their nutrition for health, to your pro athlete. This book has it all. So far, every recipe I have tried has been a hit. I am excited to try them all.

The contents are great shame the spine was shipped damaged.
Received the book today and it is exactly what I was looking for in a book for dieting, however, the spine was damaged when I opened the package. There was no damage to the packaging which led me to believe that it was sent already damaged. While the contents and overall integrity of the book are fine and I will be keeping it, it does suck that you can see this visible damage

10/10 get this book
I am not a big cookbook person - but this book is awesome. Chris Algieri is so incredibly thoughtful in his approach to smart eating. Every single recipe is dripping with logic, his knowledge and the science behind well balanced meals. Plus the food tastes great! It takes mundane meal plans and remakes them into some pretty exciting and healthy meals. Do yourself a favor and buy this book ASAP.
