"Stop thinking and start whizzing." Tons of feel great recipes, but TWO of them are particularly outstanding! While juices did their job of providing me with good nutrients that are essential for the body, and while juices are good for easy absorption of the nutrients, they do not contain the fiber from the fruit or the vegetable, and I found that I wanted something more substantial and nutritious, but also easy and rapid to prepare.

Reviews
"We found plenty of recipes and support on the Reboot with Joe website, but I wanted to make sure she had whatever she needed for success so I purchased a couple of Joe Cross books including the “101 Juice Recipes” published September 16, 2013. Recipes are organized by color and provide information about which ones are useful for fasting, for energizing during workouts, for avoiding if you have diabetes, etc."
"Then I watched the documentary with Joe Cross, Fat,Sick, and nearly dead while I was sitting on the couch with my slow metabolism lol. So I looked to Joe and I bought this book and started following the recipes and WOW, they actually tasted great and not one was khaki green. The energy from juicing is unreal and went from nearly falling asleep at my boring job, to taking ownership of it and getting noticed for it, actually got a raise! Now I'm saying that juicing and Joe is going to lead to a raise, but when you are awake and feeling amazing, I think it attracts all the right stuff into your life."
"After viewing the movie, I started juicing but needed a good recipe book and this one is great."
"great recipe book with colored pictures, it is organized, and the spiral construction and a built-in stand make this the best juicing cookbook out there."
"I recently bought a juicer and then purchased this book."
"This comes with recommendations for health concerns and with calorie count."
"This is a great book."
"Good all around recipes for juicing, and because I believe in using the Paul, I just adapt them and use them in my vita mix and get the fiber I need as well."

"I then segued into this book--30 day Green Smoothies for Life and pretty much followed it to the letter. The 10 day book is meant to cleanse/detox--to rid your body of all the gunk, the junk, the cravings and be a re-setting of a new way of eating--for life! The 40 days gave me time to assess how my body felt without eating the bad stuff and the difference and changes I began to experience with consuming only the good stuff. As I approach the last few days of the 30 day book, I am looking forward to adopting one green smoothie as a meal replacement per day indefinitely."

The Big Book of Kombucha: Brewing, Flavoring, and Enjoying the Health Benefits of Fermented Tea
The book also includes information on the many health benefits of kombucha, fascinating details of the drink’s history, and recipes for delicious foods and drinks you can make with kombucha (including some irresistible cocktails! “Deep-rooted insight into the history, science, and how-to of this ancient brew ... a critical addition to the bookshelf of anyone interested in good food.”. — Jennifer McGruther, author of The Nourished Kitchen. “On top of walking you through the kombucha fermentation process, The Big Book also includes a whopping 286 flavor combinations along with the history of the drink, information on health benefits, and much more. Expert brewers Hannah Crum and Alex LaGory reveal how easy, inexpensive, and safe it is to make your own delicious kombucha, with instructions for batch and continuous brewing.
Reviews
"It is a good book in particular for those new to brewing and contains everything from the history of this delicious elixir, to brewing ingredients, tips, flavoring and using your Kombucha in cooking. In the past I have found the many books go too far one way -such as things to use your Kombucha in, or the other way -very basic tips, and do not strike the happy medium that allows the book to be an all around guide. The tea guide was also very detailed and useful -talking about types of blends you should and should not use, and acceptable quantities before they become too much for the balanced of the Kombucha, The sugar guide was equally as useful; as was the equipment guide, as I now know I should not have used that cheesecloth as a cover when in a pinch (allows contaminates to get in your brew). For me the advanced guide was so helpful -how to flavor, as we are currently experimenting with secondary fermentation using cascade hobs, and carbonation, as striking that right balance has been an admitted challenge; and other books have simply not been detailed enough, leaving me having to turn to good old Google -this book solves that! The remainder of this book is a guide to flavors one could experiment with, drinks one can use this in -such as cocktails and shrubs -both of which are hands down amazing with the addition of Kombucha! The book ends with more of the Kombucha story; but most usefully a very detailed guide to components of Kombucha, specific health concerns and how the consumption of Kombucha might help; further reading guides and a brew log, which is very useful for new brewers."
"This big (383 page), bold and beautiful book is full of a wealth of first-hand information on all aspects of Kombucha that Hannah and her partner Alex LaGory have curated over their years of involvement with the Kombucha sub-culture. From the history and science of Kombucha to straightforward guidelines on the many aspects of brewing, decanting and flavoring this healthful fermented tea, Hannah and Alex cram an awful lot of really useful information into this book."
"One thing missing from the book is best place to buy it, I found it though. First flavors I did were strawberry lemonade, blueberry lemonade and cherry lemonade."
"My kombucha was pretty scary looking, scary enough that I could see other buyers thinking it was covered in mold, but after looking at the pictures in this book, I was able to figure out my kombucha was very yeasty and figure out it was probably due to using too many tea bags when brewing."
"But kombucha makes me feel so great it's practically magical."
"I really hope the author writes more books in the in the near future, I'm hoping she will possibly write a book about how to make milk kefir/water kefir, because I wish I could find a book on that subject just as good as this book!"
