Review: The Healthy Matcha Cookbook

December 11, 2015 by Joi Leave a Comment

The Healthy Matcha Cookbook
The Healthy Matcha Cookbook
I was recently sent a copy of a beautiful cookbook, The Healthy Matcha Cookbook by Miryam Quinn-Doblas, MS, RD (creator of EatGood4Life), to review on Crazy Tea Chick. As someone who collects cookbooks, writes tons of cookbook reviews on her food blog, and happens to be obsessed with tea – this book and I are getting along famously.

In addition to outstanding recipes, which we’ll get to in a moment, the author includes a lot of wonderful information, including:

  • The history of Green Tea.
  • Matcha health benefits.
  • Matcha basics and “grades.”
  • Menu Plans
  • Resources
  • Ingredients that pair beautifully with matcha. There’s even a section on gluten free flours which, as someone who has to eat gluten free, I really appreciate.

The section on which ingredients pair best with matcha is as fascinating as it is extensive.

From the Inside Cover:

A Beautiful Collection of Recipes Featuring One of the World’s Most Popular and Powerful Superfoods

In The Healthy Matcha Cookbook, food blogger and registered dietitian Miryam Quinn-Doblas explores the various ways matcha powder—a main component of green tea—can be incorporated into everyday recipes to give your immune system the boost it needs to keep you healthy.

The health benefits of matcha powder far exceed those of green tea in drink form. The more than sixty recipes in this cookbook are easy to prepare and feature fresh, high-quality ingredients that aim to incorporate matcha powder, a powerful antioxidant, into the diet.

If you want to feel better, have more energy, and decrease the amount of toxins in your body, The Healthy Matcha Cookbook is a great resource that will help you restore and strengthen your mental and physical health. This is a beautiful guide that offers home cooks of all levels the chance to transform meals into satisfying, wholesome, healthy food using one of the world’s most popular superfoods.

Recipes Include:

  • Granola
  • Overnight Oats
  • Green Smoothie Bowl
  • Cream Cheese Spread (the picture in the cookbook has this beauty spread on bagels and it looks delicious!)
  • No Bake Breakfast Bars
  • Energy Bars
  • Quinoa Burgers with Matcha Habanero Mayo
  • Oven-Roasted Chicken Fajitas
  • Mac and Cheese
  • Spinach Mushroom Pasta
  • Tofu Stir Fry
  • Blueberry Crisp
  • Flourless Brownies (gluten free!)
  • Frozen Popsicles
  • No-Bake Cashew Banana Pie (gluten free!)
  • White Chocolate Mousse
  • And many more that’ll blow your mind!

I love the recipes to distraction, the information is priceless, and the book, itself, is gorgeous.  What I love most may be the fact that the author took the extra time to label her recipes “gluten free, dairy-free, and vegan.”  When you either choose to or have to follow a particular diet, you come to LOVE cookbook authors who go out of their way to help you in an area that, quite frankly, can be pretty tough.

Throughout the cookbook, gluten free options and tips are provided and, again, I greatly appreciate it a lot.

Make no mistake about it, however, you will love The Healthy Matcha Cookbook whether you have to follow a specific diet or not. These are off the chart healthy and delicious recipes and the book is a must have for all foodies and tea lovers.

The Healthy Matcha Cookbook would make a perfect gift idea for any and all tea lovers in your life – just be sure to grab a copy for yourself.  You’re going to love this cookbook!

If you order from Amazon soon, you can have copies of the book before Christmas. Click any of the links above or the image below!
