288-page full-color softcover cookbook
The original Gourmet Nutrition was a PDF e-book, but customers repeatedly told us they wanted a real book they could hold in their hands. So with Gourmet Nutrition V2.0, we not only had it printed, but printed it in full-color using beautiful satin gloss paper and a state-of-the-art printing press. The new Gourmet Nutrition is a stunning book that’s as comfortable on your kitchen counter as it is on your coffee table.
Over 100 brand new recipes
We went back to the drawing board and came up with brand new meals: new mains, new sides, new shakes and snacks – new everything. You’ll have endless variety in the kitchen. Note: if you own the original Gourmet Nutrition, don’t worry – these are all new recipes, none of which appeared in the original.
Beautiful color photos of each recipe
The other feedback we got is that people want photos, and lots of them! So that’s what we’ve done. Some cookbooks have one photo for every 3 or 4 recipes; we’ve included a photo for each and every recipe! That way, you’ll have an idea of how to plate and present every meal for maximum appeal. People eat with their eyes first, as the saying goes – so a great presentation can fool even the most reluctant guest into eating a perfectly healthy meal.
Full nutrition data for each recipe
Want to know exactly how many calories are in your meal? Or how many grams of protein, fat or carbs? Now you can, because we’ve included full nutritional data for every single recipe.
Large and small serving sizes
Men and women require different serving sizes, on average, so in each recipe we give two options: a large serving size for men (500-700 calories) and a smaller serving size for women (200-400 calories). Eat 5-6 servings a day of Gourmet Nutrition meals and you’ll have a great nutrition plan for yourself – without having to do the math.
Post-workout and Anytime meal classifications
The research on nutrient timing is clear: the body tolerates carbohydrates better during and after intense exercise. In short, you can eat carbs, but only when you deserve to – after you’ve exercised! Gourmet Nutrition makes it easy to take advantage of this principle by classifying each meal as either Post-workout (higher carb) or Anytime (lower carb) – and by showing you how to tweak the recipes to change a Post-workout meal to an Anytime meal, and vice versa.
Meal plan templates
Gourmet Nutrition contains basic meal plan templates to show you how much to eat and when to eat it in four scenarios: non-exercise day, morning workout, afternoon workout and evening workout.
