This is a really well done, simply presented and clearly written take on the paleo kitchen. Highly recommended.

This is an amazing book I loved the recipes and the pictures.

I have tried a few and they where yummy.

There were a few gems in here! Overall, I already knew many of the tips and tricks in here but still some good recommendations. Felt more geared towards people who are used to one-pot cooking or paleo.

As a busy mom of 3, I loved the recipes in this book! The ingredients were readily available and approachable. I never thought to do breakfasts on a sheet pan, so I thought that was a wonderful concept! This book is great for someone new to Paleo, as Christina gives a thorough explanation of Paleo ideology and what foods are key to a Paleo pantry.

Wonderful collection of delicious looking recipes. I will definitely be trying some of these out in the near future.

Not my favorite cookbook. It's a nice book, but nothing jumped out at me that would make me have to own this book.

I love a good recipe book, especially anything one-pot that promises ease, as I have a super small kitchen, and even if I don't consciously follow any kind of regime like paleo, I like the ideas behind it and can see the health benefits. I definitely would like to eat more 'clean' for my health and for the planet so I can get on board with this principle.
The recipes here are tasty, easy to follow and can be adapted if you can't get hold of certain ingredients or don't like some of the things called for in the recipe.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publishers for letting me access an advance digital copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

Christina Shoemaker is the blogger behind The Whole Cook blog, which I admit I have not read before. However, like most every, I am interested in incorporating healthier options into our diet as well as adding variety. While we are not going to entirely give up our grains or ditch the dairy and I have no intention to start learning to cook with coconut aminos, there are quite a few recipes in her book that sound delicious and would be a great way to make little changes in your diet. And who can argue with one-pot cooking and dinner to table recipes in about 30 minutes! Shoemaker outlines four principles behind the recipes chosen for this book:

1. People want to feed their families healthy food but feel overwhelmed by it.
2. Fast food doesn’t have to be junk food.
3. Healthy food doesn’t have to be complicated or weird.
4. We want to eat healthy without it tasting like a punishment.

I need the most inspiration for preparing healthy and delicious snacks and appetizers, and felt that the book’s selection was a bit lackluster:
 Apple slices or bananas with nut butter.
 Vegetables and ranch dressing.
 Dark chocolate.
 Deli meat or jerky.
 Fresh, frozen or dried fruit.
 Guacamole and plantain chips or veggies.
 Hardboiled eggs.
 Granola and trail mix.
 Tomato slices sprinkled with salt.

Breakfast choices include a myriad of veggie scrambles and frittatas. One scramble did sound especially tasty, the muffuletta scramble modeled on the New Orleans sandwich made with roasted red peppers, salami, pepperoni, black and green olives and Italian seasoning.

Sheet pan dinners are bountiful:
 Arroz con pollo made with cauliflower rice.
 Balsamic flank steak with peppers, onion and mushrooms.
 Turkey meatballs in marinara over butternut squash noodles.
 Roasted cranberry chicken and Brussel sprouts.
 Chicken and cabbage. Orange chicken and cauliflower rice bowls.
 Balsamic basil chicken cauliflower rice bowls.
 Halibut in tomato cream sauce.
 Baked chicken marsala.
 Harvest ranch chicken dinner.
 Balsamic flank steak with peppers, onion and mushrooms.

Skillet meals include stir fry dinners with a few unique dishes in the mix:
 Chicken and summer veggies.
 Sausage and zucchini.
 Ghee chicken with sauteed carrots.
 Stuffed pizza chicken and veggies.
 Honey chicken and green beans.
 Buffalo chicken and zoodles.

Stove top soups that are quick and fresh:
 Chicken, beef and vegetable versions.
 Beef stroganoff.
 Tomato (from fresh tomatoes).
 Chicken curry.
 Seafood bisque.
 Stuffed pepper made with cauliflower rice.
 Chicken BBQ.
 Supreme pizza chili.
 Steak fajita.
 French onion (30 minute recipe, which looks delish!).
 Ratatouille.

The dessert section includes cobblers, mousse and puddings, which rely heavily on coconut cream and coconut sugar.

All in all, there are plenty of scrumptious recipes in this book!

I received an ARC from the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

This had a lot of great, quick, easy recipes, I’ve tried a few and they turned out well though I may have tweaked them a little bit. For whatever reason, my copy had some blank pages and some pages with recipes and ingredients but no title and summary. It was also missing nutritional information which I need since I’m using this more for keto vs paleo.

Overall, some good recipes that I’ll continue to try.

I am not familiar with Christina Shoemaker's blog, The Whole Cook. Instead, I am a lover of cookbooks, and, while my family does not exclusively eat paleo, we love to cook paleo. I think those that are familiar with Shoemaker's blog will love this book. If you are not familiar with her blog, she combines a bit of snark (that moms will related to) with a ton of recipes. Her goal is to share recipes that are realistic to make on a weeknight (one pot and under 30 minutes), and this book includes a variety of them. Be warned that not every recipe has a picture; more like 60% have pictures. The pictures that are there look delicious. I was inspired to find butternut squash spirals in the frozen section of my grocery store to make the Paleo Pad Thai. The recipes are clear and easy to follow.

Clean Paleo One-Pot Meals is full of great recipes with beautiful photos. All these recipes seem easy enough with few enough ingredients that I am very interested in trying these. Also the photos make these foods look absolutely delicious. I will be trying several of these recipes for sure!

This was so informative! I actually learned a lot from this book. And it's very helpful. Like, all the dishes look really good, and the instructions are not hard to follow at all. So I think that I will have a lot of use from this one.

I appreciated the introductory chapter because it's not preachy. The author encourages the reader to take what they want to take from the paleo features, and suit it for their individual needs. She also gives lots of options for substitutions in each recipe. The recipes are diverse and all appear to be fairly easy to prepare. Nice icons to show vegan, keto, dairy-free, etc. A good cookbook for someone who wants to try a healthier diet.

This is a great cookbook! There are super handy recipes in here, and they don’t seem too complicated to make.
I like that it starts by educating us a bit about what Paleo eating is, and goes on to give us some tips and tricks for meal planning.
Most recipes are made in the oven, and are actually baked in one pan or dish, like the title says.
If you’re doing Paleo, or even if you’re not, this recipe book has some good ones if you’re trying to eat healthier!

Clean Paleo One-Pot Meals is a tutorial guide and cookbook with recipes developed by Christina Shoemaker. Released 6th Oct 2020 by Quarto on their Fair Winds Press imprint, it's 192 pages (print version) and is available in paperback and ebook formats.

The introduction includes a good overview over the paleo diet, what it includes (and doesn't) and some theory behind the food selections. There's also an introduction to meal prep and planning and some (very) basic suggestions for paleo friendly clean snacks.

The recipes are grouped by category: breakfast, sheet-pan/baking dish dinners, skillet meals, soups, and one-dish desserts. Recipe ingredients are listed bullet style in a sidebar. Measurements are given in US standard with metric equivalents in parentheses (yay!). Special tools and ingredients are also listed, along with yields and cooking directions. Icons in the headers highlight dairy-free, egg-free, vegetarian, vegan, and/or keto.

Most of the ingredients are easily sourced at any moderately well stocked grocery store. Nutritional information is not included (which surprised me, especially considering some recipes are specifically developed to be keto-friendly). Tips and variations on each recipe are included in a text box at the end.

The book also includes a short author bio and a cross referenced index. Roughly half the recipes include photos. The photos are clear and attractive and the serving suggestions are appealing and appropriate.

Four stars. This would make a superlative selection for busy cooks wanting a simplified way to test the paleo diet and make a real effort to give it a genuine try in an accessible and logical manner.

Disclosure: I received an ARC at no cost from the author/publisher for review purposes.

3.5 tounded down
Thanks to Netgalley for the opportunity to read this book. On the plus side: Good guide for someone starting out. Easy to follow instructions. On the negative side: no nutritional information given. There are not a lot of pictures.

I made the barbecue chicken thighs with spicy broccoli. It was easy to make and very good.
The pistachio crusted salmon with asparagus was also very good. Next time I'll substitute broccoli for the asparagus since it wasnt a favorite of the family.

Clean filling recipes in this great book about paleo. I wished that they would have taken lots of pictures so you could see what the end result would be instead of only a few pics here and there.

I love reviewing cookbooks that focus on quick and easy meals - this is a great new addition to my kitchen! The recipes are quite simple, do not involve much prep, and use ingredients that are readily available.

I look forward to trying many recipes, including: Farmer's Frittata, Pistachio Herb-crusted Salmon with Asparagus, Spicy Tomato Soup, and Easy Fruit Bake.

Thank you, Quarto Publishing Group and NetGalley, for a digital ARC!

I couldn't view all the recipes because pieces were removed in the ARC but I like the general concept of the cookbook, with one-pot meals ranging from skillets to soup pots to sheet pan meals. Plenty for simple weeknight meals, a few vegetarian but wouldn't be the first choice for vegetarians.

So many great meals with accessible ingredients. This is a must have for anyone following a Paleo diet. I love anything that reduces the amount of clean up in my cooking. This cookbook has a great variety of meat selections and flavor profiles. This will be my new go to for week night meals!
