Since 2011, food writer Dickerman has worked with registered dietician Marissa Lippert to create an annual cleanse for Bon Appétit's website and magazine. Each cleanse featured two weeks' worth of menus built upon simple guidelines (e.g., avoid booze, limit sugar) meant to coax readers toward healthier habits. Here the author has expanded the concept into a cookbook that includes 140 à la carte recipes (e.g., oven-roasted chicken with grapes, clams with white beans and gremolata, apple slice with honey-chamomile dressing) and four two-week diet plans (one for each season) with menus and shopping lists. Throughout the book, Dickerman preaches moderation and small, meaningful changes. In keeping with this philosophy, she omits calorie counts for recipes.
VERDICT Dickerman's approachable guide to whole foods-centric, occasionally meatless healthy eating can help readers curb their postholiday guilt and adopt sustainable life changes. For vegetarians and vegans, Mark Bittman's The VB6 Cookbook is a better choice.
