I've reached the part of Shelter-in-Place where I'm stir crazy again and wanting to do something to improve myself to regain some semblance of control. What better way than to regain control over my diet?

I've done Whole30 twice and maintained a mostly Paleo lifestyle in the past, which works for me and my body. I lost my copy of It Starts With Food when I moved, and I wanted to re-read it to get my mind in the right headspace for the lifestyle change. Thankfully, my library had this one available as an eBook to check out. While I prefer It Starts with Food because of the additional depth it goes into for the reasoning and science behind the choices, I do like that this has a robust recipe collection and includes many resources for novice and seasoned chefs.
