Gourmet Nutrition Customer Reviews

The industry experts have spoken, giving Gourmet Nutrition a resounding “two thumbs up” for the recipe quality, graphic design, and photography.

But just because the media and the experts are on board doesn’t mean that those folks who actually bought a copy were thrilled. So let’s turn to those folks to see what they think of the book:

Works For Men and Women
My wife and I have been using your Precision Nutrition and Gourmet Nutrition books to plan all of our meals and it has changed our lives!

I still can’t believe that we are preparing such great tasting, healthy meals, while only spending half the time in the kitchen. Also the time spent in the kitchen is more enjoyable because we can work together to prepare tomorrows meals while cooking supper.

Using your gourmet nutrition book allows us to obtain the right ratios without having to eat plain dull meals. The best benefit comes from a healthier life style and the results we have been obtaining.

Our stories are just proof that your PN plan and Gourmet Nutrition can work for anyone.
My wife and I had two opposite goals; she wanted to put on weight and I wanted to lean out.

On January 3rd my wife’s weight was 115 and mine was 247, she now weighs 120 and I weight 221. I have went from 23% body fat to 9.8% while gaining 12.2 lbs of lean body mass.

Thanks for all that you have done.

Doubts Officially Blown Away
I was a little anxious to drop money on a cook book, considering I already had Precision Nutrition.

My doubts were officially blown away when the book arrived.

It is a beautiful book with fantastic pictures. The pictures actually helped me to be able to use the book on Valentines Day…

Yes, THAT Valentines Day to prepare a dinner of Portabello Pizzas and Mashed “Potatoes” and even a desert of Pumpkin Pie Bars.

I met much resistance when I told my girlfriend I would be using your book as my guide and she immediately said “I’m not eating your “diet” food on Valentines day.”

Those fears are a thing of the past and she actually wants her own copy of the book!

In short, The book is beautifully presented with fantastic pictures of amazing recipes. This book goes a step beyond in welcoming those outside of the fitness world.

GN has recipes that anyone seeing it in a bookstore would find appealing. The best part for me are all the fabulous pizza recipes, which I thought were a thing of the past except for rare occasions. Great Job!

Cons? None really
I am very excited about GN v2.0!!!

Pros:
-format
-more AT meals
-awesome pics
-breakdown of large/small portions
-recipe variety
-pairing suggestions
-suggested variations

Cons:
-none, really!… umm – deciding which to try first!

I am very impressed with this product. It is more enticing and more user friendly than GN v1.0 that I received with my packet. At first I was apprehensive to spend the money on yet another cookbook – but in this case I am SO GLAD I did!

Well done!

PW meals, AT meals, very professional
Very professional. I think the explanations on how to make PW meals AT and vice versa was an outstanding idea. Pics are great also, by the way–it’s amazing how a “simple” shake can look so damn appetizing

Thanks again for another great product.

This is more than a home run…it’s a grand slam
I second the “wow!” sentiment.

This is more than a home run. It’s a grand slam that should lead to mainstream media appearances and a much wider audience.

You should really reproduce a PDF version of a sample page on this website, so people can see the new format. It’s light years beyond the previous version.

My favorite feature is how you break down the time requirements between
prep time and cooking time. At last, an honest cook book! My pet peeve with cook books has always been ridiculously understated times.

I also like:
- the variations supplied for each recipe
- the many new recipes, including oatmeal variations
- better organization on the introductory sections and tips

I’m already making a shopping list for Boxing Day.

Made an enormous difference for me
Well, I might be cooking one or two of the recipes on Christmas Day… my book arrived this morning, and I wasn’t even one of the preorders! So happy holidays back, and thanks for all the help in getting it together over the last year. It’s made an enormous difference to me.

Sits next to Jamie Oliver
I just received GN v2 today. Just in time for Xmas !

I had a quick look at it and I am really impressed by the quality. I can proudly put this book in my library next to my Jamie Oliver books.

I enjoyed GN v1 but my wife wasn’t in love with it. If she doesn’t see a picture next to the recipe, she doesn’t feel compelled to do it.

But let me tell you, she is tearing through GN 2 right now as I am writing this. You guys are getting a 2 thumbs up from her.

Thanks for this work of art, I am looking forward to making me some good meals. I’ll post more reviews as I try the recipes.

Better than my highest expectations
My copy arrived, the best early-Christmas gift I could receive. I had only a cursory look at the book before my sister grabbed it. Her review: the food looks edible, which I knew it would be, but she had thought it would be otherwise when I told her it was a cookbook of healthy food.

So, that’s one convert!

When I got the book back, I realized it’s better than my highest expectations.

All of the recipes are great
I love this book. It was a pleasant surprise coming earlier than expected. I have already made the Egg Benedict, Texas Thin Crust Pizza, and the Apple Cinnamon Bars. All of them were great. The pictures definitely help motivate you to cook the items also. I will post some pics.

Easily one of the best recipe books ever
I wanted to pass along an enormous congratulations for what is easily one of the best recipe books ever. No only is it full of great, easy-to-prepare healthy recipes but now it competes with the mass-marketed, visually appealing books available in bookstores.

Honestly . . . perfectly done. It’s nice to see someone who cares about their work so much that they put out the very best they can.

In fact upon looking through it my fiancée (as of Christmas eve) said, “Finally! A cookbook we can actually recommend to patients.”

Well done.

Food that’s worth making & in line with my fitness goals
It looks like everything I’ve always wanted in a cookbook – nutrition info, serving sizes that will work for me and for my husband, suggestions on what to serve with what, beautiful photos, food that “reads yummy” and sounds worth making (and therefore an easy sell to my honey!) while still being perfect to help me achieve my health and fitness goals. Plus, all the options you offer for each recipe? Wow! Great ideas!!!

I wake up and look forward to trying out new recipes
You out did yourself with this recipe book. My husband and I have enjoyed your recipes since the beginning. I have never had to alter them in any way. Today I spent the whole day trying out 5 of the recipes, sorry no pics, they have all been eaten.

The classy chicken was a hit with my whole family. The salisturkey steaks are great with my kids, and my husband and I just loved the texas thin crust pizza. The green cuisine Frittata is great left over as a snack as well.

I find myself waking up looking forward to trying out new recipes.

The main thing is that I have two small boys, one 3yrs old and the other 18 months. My husband and I teach and these meals are easy for us to prepare at night and cook when we get home from school. This gives us time with our kids.

Thank you for developing meals that work, taste great, are easy and nutritionally sound.

I have a heart condition that doesn’t allow me to have HGI carbs and your meals are PERFECT.

THANK YOU!!!!!!!

THIS IS A GREAT GIFT FOR ANY FITNESS CONSCIOUS PERSON!

My mom stole my copy
Received my copy in the mail today. At first glance it looks great (even to this foodie!) …. wouldn’t really know though since my mother stole it out of my hands before I could actually read it! If it can get my mom interested in healthy eating you’re on to something! Thanks!

Presentation amazing – information top notch
I received my copy on Friday and I have already cooked Venison stew, Lamb Chili, Turkey Casserole, Banana Protein Bars, Popeye Shake (strangely good). Keep up up the good work. The presentation is amazing and the information is top-notch.

A Beautiful Book
Received my copy and I must say I’m very impressed. I really like the way it is laid out with suggestions of sides and the additional AT meals since that’s what really makes up the bulk of our eating. I’m eager to try out a lot of these meals this new year. Thanks so much for all the work that went into this beautiful cook book.

Worth it’s weight in gold
Congratulations on this awesome book. This is truly an excellent and unique cookbook worth it’s weight in gold and while I’ve already done a few of the recipes ( I received it last Friday afternoon), I can’t wait to try the other ones.

For me I really like the Salad Dressings since it adds so much variety to meals but I’m extremely pleased with “Variations and Options” at the bottom of the page. To think you can take the base of a soup with the addition of oil and vinegar and voila, another dressing. Again… more variety.

This book has everything but the kitchen sink. Keep ‘em coming ’cause I’ll keep on buying.

The best cookbook ever
It is probably the best cookbook I have ever had! WOW!

Attention to detail at its finest
WOW! you guys deserve a round of applause! I work at a company that has been doing printing for 65 years, and I must say that the quality of this book is top-notch. From the full color images to the embossed title on the cover… Attention to detail at its finest, and the meals, I cannot wait to dive in! As a GN 1.0 faithful, I am looking forward to these recipes! Great job guys, its easy to see that this project was a labor of love! Thank you JB and crew

Awesome!
AWESOME cookbook!! Beautifully done and well put together. I was very pleased to have it arrive so fast, it came before the gift certificate arrived in the mail!! I’m looking forward to many yummy meals. Thanks so much to you and all who working at putting this book together.

Happy New Year to you and the PN team.

Eating healthy is no longer a struggle
I received my copy before the promised ship date, and that alone was mighty impressive!! Since then, I have made at least one meal each day – Christmas Day I surprised our guests with apple crumble made from the healthy cookbook they teased me about! I made the poached pears on another evening, and have become addicted to the blueberry yogurt snack. Now all this is from the woman who lived in her house three months before she knew her oven didn’t work – I normally don’t cook, so PN compliance was always going to be a struggle. Having a cookbook with simple, easy and fun recipes is certainly one way to get people like me cooking. I love the wide variety, the pictures are excellent, and I think the evolution from GN V1.0 to this 2.0 is a definite growing up. It reflects the quality of the program and I think it could compete with many books on the market.

Kudos to JB and his team and thanks for making healthy eating actually fun.

My 13 year old likes the meals too
I was quite impressed!!!

The presentation was exceptional…

The recipes are very easy to put together…

In fact, my 13 year old daughter and I pick a recipe for the next days dinner.. She prepares it and it’s ready by the time I get home after work..

I love it… It teaches her to eat , cook and prepare healthy recipes and great tasting food… I get to reap in these benefits as well …

I love it!

It also has prompted us to experiment with food ourselves.

I would definitely look forward to additional issues without question.

Nice job guys!!!!!

In the end, with a few hundred reviews in, it’s clear that Gourmet Nutrition is a big hit BOTH in the media and with our customers. As that’s kinda like BOTH the movie critics and the general public agreeing on the quality of a film, we’re very excited about this.
