While I really liked this cookbook, I do wish it was organized or labeled by blue zone. It would help bring a cultural competence to the book. There are a few recipes I am definite interesting in trying! Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for this arc ebook in exchange for an honest review.

I have just finished watching a Netflix series on the Blue Zone. It is truly inspiring. I am in my mid 50s and suffer from PSA, so I have always been careful with my diet. This book is perfect for people that are health conscious. I will definitely buy it when it is out.

If you're looking to add some wholesome, plant-forward dishes to your menu, *The Blue Kitchen* is a great place to start! This cookbook offers a treasure trove of delicious recipes that are both healthy and satisfying. Whether you're whipping up a colorful salad or a hearty grain bowl, these dishes prove that nutritious meals can also be packed with flavor.

On our date nights, my husband and I love trying new recipes, and this book has given us a ton of inspiration. I remember the first time we tackled one of the plant-forward entrees—it was packed with protein and veggies, and we both agreed it was one of the best meals we'd made together!

What I love most about this book is how it combines old-world wisdom with fresh, modern ingredients, helping us eat well while living fully. So, if you're looking to transform your meals and add a little health boost to your lifestyle, *The Blue Kitchen* is a must-have!

I requested to read this book because of its content - the concept of healthy-happy recipes.
But…it has exceeded my expectations! I found myself immersed in a new world of recipes from various cultures and all fresh and serene.
The design and presentation have such a quality and they work well with the philosophies and the wisdom behind these recipes.
