What are others saying about Real Foods Basics?

“New to real food and wondering where on earth to start? Kate Tietje knows what it takes to make the transition to real, whole and traditional foods, because she’s done it herself and has seen the positive benefits for her family’s health. She walks you step by step through the why’s and how’s behind it all, helping you stock your kitchen with the right foods and tools, and then shows you how easy it is to make delicious foods that everyone will enjoy!”

–Stephanie Langford, Keeper of the Home 

“Kate has put together a fantastic resource for anyone looking to take the step into real foods! She takes the subjects I had a hard time getting done for my own family and explains them so that anyone can understand and follow through. I also love the section on kitchen tips – she leaves no stone unturned.  A well rounded resource and must read!”

–Donielle, Naturally Knocked Up

“Kate equips you in your pursuit of wellness, while feeding your family their favorite comfort foods! Her family’s story and the simple recipe methods are inspiring. Kate walks you through the basics, from the store, to the kitchen, to the table. Keep this book alongside you in your journey of discovering whole, “real foods.”

–Michele Augur, Frugal Granola

“This book is for those of you who want to eat real food but don’t want your dinner guest to ask, “What is this?” ten times. You CAN make everyday American food that is nourishing rather than fattening, and Kate Tietje will hold your hand while you learn. If you’re intimidated by a 600-page tome filled with research and recipes, try the normal person’s version with a dozen pages of conversational food science, and then the mouthwatering, call-your-waitress over recipes for french fries, ice cream, and pizza. You’ll love the diner style taste with the real food nutrition.”

–Katie Kimball, Kitchen Stewardship
