Livwise: Easy Recipes for a Healthy, Happy Life – An Adventure into the Unknown!
I admit it, I was taken in by media – at least it wasn’t a dreaded advertisement! I was watching Anderson the other day and his surprise guest happened to be Oliva Newton-John. They chatted about various things including her new cookbook Livwise. At first I thought, “oh great, another celebrity cookbook – why do they all think they’re somehow nutrition experts?” But I was pleasantly surprised when Newton-John kept ta...more

This one may very well become one of my favorite cookbooks among the many that I have acquired! Loaded with a unique array of easy, healthy recipes, with some of my favorite health food ingredients. The recipes are "a breath of fresh air". Nice to find something different that I have yet to experience- even commonly found recipes come with a nice but healthy twist here. But don't be mistaken, these are healthy recipes that are a joy to consume, not the fat-free, unsavory dishes that some may exp...more
I received this cook book from a book giveaway and am so happy that I won it! This is definitely a book that I would have purchased on my own. The stories and tips that Olivia Newton-John shares in this book are heartwarming and helpful. Oh, and the photos....I love a cookbook with photos of the dishes! While there isn't a photo for each and every recipe, there are enough that I am happy.

Some healthy and rather tasty-looking recipes, but some of the ingredients might be hard to find for this non-Aussie. Beautifully photographed and containing some interesting anecdotes from Olivia, this is a nice coffee table book.

This book is about philosophy of.food I met years aago in Coral Gables and with a friend named Peggy Hodgson in Ft. Lauderdalenyears at a school.
Fun combo of raw foodist/vegan/superhealthy cooking with ONJ fanservice and lots of kiwi fruit. She makes her pizza crust on a dehydrator, ya'll. Whoa.
Great tasty, delicious and easy recipes. I have made many dishes from this book already and looking to explore more. No fuss and healthy recipes. Recommend this cookbook.
Amazing recipes, i have tried most and they all work and are completely delicious and so healthy!
Recipes are easy to follow and require mostly basic ingredients. The book is elegant and put together nicely. I will definitely be making the 'cashew, macadamia, and raspberry tart' and her version of cornbread.
Great
I enjoyed this cookbook from Olivia Newton-John, THANK YOU GOODREADS for my winning copy, I have tried a few of the recipes and they were pretty good, some of the things will be hard to find but I am looking forward to finding and trying...Thank you again Goodreads....
I have been a fan of Both ONJ and eating well for over 35 years. I found this ccokbook to be well written and presented but don't see myself ever cooking a single recipe. Most were to "granola" even for me and many called for equipment and ingredients that are not found in your everyday kitchen.
