If any of you checked out my previous blog, the summer journal “Health and the City,” you may have witnessed my love for The Pump. This restaurant is right up my alley—their mission: “To make it easy for people to eat well.”

So when I stumbled upon the fact that the store had a cookbook, I immediately thought, “Why didn’t anyone tell me about this?” Quickly followed by, “I need to get that!”

When I ordered the recipe-packed tome, I was hoping the most for the instructions for Blueberry Protein Muffins (made without butter, with whole wheat and extra protein), but it was sadly omitted. Nonetheless, there are numerous nutritious and creative formulas in the cookbook—you can even see all of the ones I’ve tabbed in the book near the top of the picture! The magnitude of delicious-looking meals are so overwhelming that I would love your help!

I’ve narrowed down a list of recipes that I would most like to try. Here’s the list:

• Chunky Oil-Free Avocado Salsa
• Cucumber Salad
• Chopped Sirloin with Basil and String Beans
• Eggplant Carpaccio
• Cucumber Yogurt Dressing
• Pump Apple Pie
• Pizzaiola Egg White Omelet
• The Pump’s Protein Pancakes
• Hot Zucchini Strips with Shallots
• Gigante Plate

Which dish would you most like to try? The top vote-getter will be my first kitchen experiment and I will highlight the experience in a “Good for you eats” post in the near future!
