    What's a clean eating recipe?

    Two sites I really like for recipes are: http://www.101cookbooks.com/ and http://www.epicurious.com/

    Another fun one is http://www.foodandwine.com/recipes (you don't have to drink wine with them if you don't want).

    I think http://www.chow.com/recipes is another good site for recipes, as is http://www.seriouseats.com/recipes.

    Anyway, whatever you think "clean" is, you should be able to find many recipes that qualify from those sites.

    There are bunches of good paleo sites too, which would probably also be "clean," however you define "clean."

    This is actually a pet peeve of mine, since I have tons of cookbooks and I'm really not sure what would be "unclean" about them--stuff like 660 Curries or Roasting or VegetableLove or Essentials of Classic Italian Cooking or Julia Child's books or Mark Bittman's or Greene on Greens or about a million seasonal or ethnic-themed books. It seems like any good normal cookbook would be primarily "clean" so as usual the term is mostly just confusing and unhelpful.

    If you're not a foodie with lots of cookbooks like lemurcat and me, you could checkout http://www.cleaneatingmag.com/. If you subscribe, they will email you new recipes periodically. However, they're probably not any cleaner than the sites lemurcat suggested.

    Google clean eating recipes if that's what you're specifically looking for. I don't get that term personally.

    Boy people get real mad about that term. In my opinion it means meals created from whole foods rather than processed items that might contain items like corn syrup or other delicious but unhealthy if consumed a lot items. Marshmallow fluff would be not clean eating but an apple would.

    Everyone knows what clean eating means. Some just hate the term and like to argue the point ;)

    Why don't you ask for recipes? We know what that means.
    Is it possible that most of the people on the board are eating dirty food?

    Spaghetti squash with a garlic sauce with your choice of protein. I love it with shrimps.

    garlic dill salmon on a bed of asparagus in a pouch on the BBQ.

    These are my two favs. currently.

    And again why would you need special cookbooks to find recipes from whole foods?

    People must have really weird cookbooks or something.

    I semi recently got the "against all grain, meals made simple" cook book and seriously haven't had a bad meal from it yet! My favorite is the sausage aribata.

    Ignore the snipes.

    I like "hot" salads (protein of your choice) with spuds or flatbreads (easy to make). It's tasty, nutrient rich and easy to make. It's great in the hot summer.

    I also make a huge tray of roasted veg to last me 2-3 days and keep this in the fridge for snacks/sandwiches/wraps/ pasta etc.

    Two easy things :)

    This is yummy too. I put it in the freezer to set hard so I don't scoff it in five seconds flat. Oh She Glows is my favourite cookbook :)http://ohsheglows.com/2011/06/03/chilled-double-chocolate-torte-the-no-bake-version/

    Nah, bruh, you gotta wash that stick off first. It doesn't just come clean. I'm sure the mud and dirt will be fine if you mix a little bleach in with it.

    Really I think it's that no one know what clean eating means-and therefore like to argue the point
