Great, simple, healthy with flavor

This cookbook has many recipes which are easy to cook, healthy to eat, and tasty to enjoy. It's also a good cookbook to have handy in a household with vegetarians and meat eaters.

easy to use

I'm a big fan of The Pump in New York City -- I eat there every chance I get. This book is a good companion for fans of The Pump or for anyone looking to cook easy-to-make, simple healthy foods that do not require egg yolks, salt, butter or oil or other unhealthful ingredients. I liked the little blurbs on the sides of the recipes by famous clientele of the Pump. This is from a "mom and pop" type of store -- so the book is not written too professional, its more like a friend talking to another friend -- not a bad thing at all. The Dynamite Chicken Pita (#42) is a must try.

Great Book, Great place.....

I ordered this book after trying their food in one of their NY locations. The book is great I just wish they would open more locations so I cook pick up their food without having to cook. This place has wonderful food. And the book explains how to make most of their best dishes.

Delicious and healthy

A great book for anyone who wants to lead a healthy lifestyle. The easy to follow recipes are fantastic, and the book is so positive and uplifting. Give it to the people you love, show them that you care!

So simple, yet so perfect!

Having an extremely busy schedule as a personal fitness instructor, it limits my time and choices I have for food, and since I'm in manhattan quite often, I usually stop at the pump to get a QUICK yet HEALTHY, and I must say, TASTY MEAL. Now when I crave those meals at home, I can make them myself! You know what? 3 simple words to discribe this book, which are very important qualities for ANY BOOK to me, inexpensive, great information, and it's cheery!
