An interesting collection of accessible recipes created around the principles of the Mediterranean Diet: less processed foods, more vegetables, less meat, etc. The recipes are graded from super easy to more effort, and all seem very doable. The photos are lovely and give a good impression of what you're aiming for.

Thank you to Netgalley and BooksGoSocial for the opportunity to read this ARC. #netgalley

This is one of the best organized cookbooks I've ever seen. In the beginning it lists every single recipe. Across it says the time amount it takes and then next to it whether it's easy, super easy, not so tricky and so on. It further breaks down the discussion of what Mediterranean diet is for those who are not familiar with it. Then you can find all the recipes, almost all of them have photos of the food. This is a great book for someone who's not familiar with the Mediterranean food. It's an excellent book I think for someone who's a beginner.

I don't follow any died, I just love eating and trying out different recipes. I love that the recipes are easy to follow and don't use any fancy or expensive ingredients. So far I tried the Greek lemon chicken soup and the chicken with mushroom sauce. Both of them were highly enjoyed by my family! Delicious!

I LOVED Mediterranean cuisine. I've grown up with it, it's by far my favourite and I'm always looking for new tips and tricks to make it better. This book had everything I need in a cookbook for me to enjoy it, simple instructions, food I actually want to eat and pictures.

Excellent Mediterranean diet cookbook with pictures showing what the recipe should look like. I have tried several recipes and love how easy they are to make with ingredients that I have in my home.

I love a cookery book but usually they are filled with recipes requiring a lot of fancy ingredients and fancy cheffy tricks. Not so this one, we made some of the soups (they were easy and delicious) and will be trying out many of the other recipes in due course. The pictures are a nice touch.

A great cookbook with some great recipes. I love learning about other countries cuisine and this one works for me. The photos are wonderful and made me hungry, the recipes are well written and easy to follow and the hints they give are always helpful.

I will be working my way through this book as there are so many recipes I do want to try. It uses ingredients that are familiar and easily obtainable. Healthy, tasty, feel good foods and worth trying as many as possible. YUM!

I have friends who are follow all sorts of eating plans and several are really into Mediterranean
food right now, so this was a great read for me to find a few recipes that I can make for when they come over. I even found a few that sound like keepers for the hubby and I.

This book has a wide range of recipes and you will surely find at least a few that you cannot live without trying. Healthy fats, good food and friends, with this cookbook, I have my Mediterranean friends covered.

I've been really interested in the Mediterranean Diet lately, but there are so many cookbooks out there that it's hard to know which one to choose. I was pleased to see this available on Netgalley and clicked on it without much consideration--I just had to read it.

It's wonderful! I love the photos that accompany the recipes (one of my pet peeves is blocks of black text in cookbooks without pictures of the finished products) and that it not only tells you how long it takes to cook each recipe, but tells you how many it serves, nutrition facts, AND the difficulty level of each.

I can't wait to work my way through these--this looks like the type of cookbook that I'd come back to again and again and would recommend to others.

Thanks so much to BooksGoSocial for making this book available to review on Netgalley.

Very nice cooking book with good selection of recipes. Liked the conversion chart, mention of some nutritional values (not a lot of info but the most basic one).

Can’t complain to be honest, for me it was more than enough information, structure and chosen recipes.

I received a copy of this book through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

This is a helpful book!

There are lots of pictures as well as some video tips. There's a variety of recipes from seafood, pastas, salads, and chicken dishes. The recipes are thorough and give clear instructions. This is a good book for anyone wanting to dive into the Mediterranean diet but aren't sure how to get started.

Overall this is a nice find!

Very simple book in so many ways. This might well be just what you need but it is not for the more adventurous cook as the recipes are straightforward (the sort I cook without a recipe) and pretty average. I'm sure most are tasty so not a problem if you need some good basic ideas. Also on the plus side, the photos and text are plentiful and easy to follow.

I have not read all the recipes because I intend to use them as a reference whenever I need to find a dish that is easy and quick. This book, however, ticks all the boxes for me, in terms of cheap and wholesome recipes that are really good for your health, I have not made any yet, but I plan to because they seem easy to make as well as being delicious, but having looked through the cookbook I am convinced it is a treasured reference that I will refer to often. As such, I highly recommend the book.
