My New Cookbook Is Here!!

I can’t believe it. The day I have been anticipating for over a year is HERE! I woke up with a jolt because I was so anxious to start reading your reviews to hear what you think of the new cookbook – thank you to those who have already left one for me. I LOVE getting reviews and read every. single. one!

Funny enough, I was thrilled to be told last week that my new book “makes everything look so easy” because that was exactly my goal with this – to make your life easier. I responded by saying it is easy to eat this way as long as you know what to do, which is precisely what I put into this book for you. So I hope you just love it and that it helps!

The other fun thing about launch day today is that I get to see your pics when your copy arrives! So please use my #100daysfastandfab hashtag to help me find them on social media. Thank you for doing that. :)

100 Days of Real Food new cookbook: Fast & Fabulous

Today I want to answer some of the questions I’ve been getting, show you several of the pages from inside the new cookbook, and share some pics from my Book Launch Party that we had in Charlotte on Sunday evening! If you have any additional questions just leave them in the comments for me.

Also, if you would like a signed copy of the book, those are being shipped worldwide from my local, independent bookstore – Park Road Books. And, in my opinion, that would make such a lovely holiday gift for someone special in your life!

The book is also available through any of the following (and the price is still REALLY good!)…

Park Road Books (exclusive signed copy – personalization welcome) | Amazon | Indie Bound | Barnes & Noble | iBooks | Books-a-Million | Walmart

Your Questions Answered

  • All 100 recipes in this book…
    • Are quick and easy,
    • Only call for very common (unprocessed!) ingredients you probably already have on hand,
    • Have a color photo,
    • Follow our real food rules (i.e. whole grain, no refined sugar, nothing out of a package with more than 5 ingredients, etc.)
    • And are different from my first cookbook!
  • Only 25% of the recipes have been previously published on my blog (and are noted at the top of the recipe).
  • For those with special dietary needs, there is a chart in the back to help you find these…
    • 85 recipes are (or can easily be) Gluten-Free
    • 52 recipes are (or can easily be) Dairy-Free
    • 69 recipes are (or can easily be) Vegetarian
    • 85 recipes are (or can easily be) Peanut/Tree Nut-Free

Also, my family and I recently made the cover recipe (Easy Fish Tacos!) together on Facebook Live. It’s still there and currently pinned to the top if you want to watch it (no account required).

Here’s what the pages look like inside including recipes you can try if you have not received your copy yet (click to enlarge images)!

My Book Launch Party!

On Sunday evening I gathered with family, friends, and some fans to celebrate. The party was held at an amazing farm-to-table restaurant here in Charlotte called Passion8. I was a little nervous to have Chef Luca make my “quick and easy” recipes that are meant for busy moms – since his dishes are usually much fancier fare – and I think he was not quite sure what to expect either! But honestly everything turned out even better than I could have expected. I think we were both pleasantly surprised! He even said it was, “by far the best, easiest and most delicious cookbook yet,” which is a HUGE compliment coming from him – yay. :)

The four of us at the party! :)

The food that was served at the party was as follows:

  • Smoked Salmon Dip on page 170
  • Easy Baked Falafel on page 172
  • Moroccan Meatballs on page 178
  • Tzatziki Sauce on page 275 (to go with Meatballs and Falafel) 
  • Whole-Wheat Couscous and Tomato Salad on page 97
  • Layered Jar Salad with White Beans on page 115
  • White Chicken Chili on page 188
  • Cinnamon-Glazed Bananas on page 247 (served over homemade vanilla ice cream!)

Here are some of the pics! I also did a little Facebook live video tour just before the party started and it’s still on my page if you want to check it out. I’m so glad we were able to include little ones this time (including my two, which as you can see LOVE to help sign books when asked LOL).

    I have a silly question, I’ve been thinking about getting your book for a while and then you came out with your second book. Would I be missing any steps by getting your new book first and then getting your first one? Trying to change my families eating habits little by little.

      I don’t have the 2nd book YET, but I do have the first one and I LOVE it! It has templates for shopping and meal planning that I use ALL the time, plus tips that I found helpful when I was first cleaning up my family’s diet. I don’t think you can go wrong either way, but for me, the first one was really helpful when I started out. Just my two cents! ☺

      Her first book covers a LOT of hows, how tos, and whys of eating REAL food. The second book, I think, has better recipes. If you just want recipes skip the first book. If you need an intro or your just beginning your real food journey, definitely start with book 1. :-)

    I could write a book about how much I love your books!

    I am a newbie and I just finished creating my first weekly menu based on a combination of your recipes and mine (with a healthier twist). I’m actually excited to cook! (Never happens!) I love how quick and easy (and normal!) your recipes are.

    I made your granola and I am in love! I couldn’t stop snacking on it yesterday because it was so tasty. Lots of calories though so I gotta stop doing that. :)

    I don’t feel like I need to go buy weird things my family doesn’t recognize or that I have to cook twice because my family doesn’t want my “diet food”. I can’t tell you what a huge breath of fresh air that is! Changing your diet is hard enough without having to fight your family or do double the work.

    I’m so grateful for you!

    I just bought your new book tonight at a school fundraiser held at our local Barnes & Noble. I flipped through it all night and couldn’t leave without it. Looking forward to implementing for a healthier 2017!

    I`m confused. I was trying to buy your book in Canada so went to amazon.ca – it shows two versions, with the same cover, but different publishing dates and prices.

    100 Days of Real Food: How We Did It, What We Learned, and 100 Easy, Wholesome Recipes Your Family Will Love Hardcover by Lisa Leake (Author) – Aug 26 2014 ($26.24 CDN)
    and
    100 Days of Real Food: Fast & Fabulous: The Easy and Delicious Way to Cut Out Processed Food Hardcover by Lisa Leake (Author) – Oct 25 2016 ($31.39 CDN)

    Not sure which one to order, but if they are both identical I would order the one that is less expensive, lol.

      Weird that it would show the same cover, but they are different books! Fast and Fabulous is her newest one. They are both great!!

      Julie’s reply is correct. They are two different books published two years apart. The covers are similar but the photo and color are different. Please let us know if you need further guidance.

    Is there anyway to still get an autographed copy? The link no longer works so I am assuming they aren’t available anymore as this is an old post but would LOVE to get a personalized copy!
