Many of us make poor food choices daily, leading to ill-health, lack of energy, and even sickness and disease. Have you ever thought about healthy cooking and eating and assumed it is too difficult, too expensive, or even too time-consuming? This perspective does not do justice to God's desire for us to live our lives in abundant health and wellness.

It does not have to be this way, and Dorrel McLaren has set about in her cookbook to show us that Something Different is possible if we choose a healthy diet and couple that with spiritual wellness. The Caribbean-inspired recipes in the book are tasty, inexpensive, and easily accessible to even the newest cook endeavoring to create a healthy meal. Dorrel uses ingredients that can be purchased at most large grocery stores and includes detailed explanations on how to prepare each dish best.

If you want to try Something Different that leads to better health and quality of life, this cookbook is for you! If we "eat with the right attitude, " we can enjoy the full, vibrant, and happy life God intends for us.
