I've been eating mostly-primal and paleo for some years now, and Mark Sisson's wonderful books have made it so much easier. It's not that I want to eat paleo-ified versions of pancakes, breads, or other unhealthy foods all the time, but it is nice to have the option to eat familiar foods sometimes and know I won't feel sick afterwards. That's where Mark's books really shine, is in bridging the gap between familiar and primal foods so we can feel genuine enjoyment in all of our food choices and not have to feel like we are missing out.
The condiments and sauces are a place where I have struggled, because even though I have gotten pretty creative with roasting vegetables and pureeing them with spices and coconut milk to make sauces, doing my own homemade mayo, etc, I haven't felt like my own homemade sauces and condiments have been as good as I'd like, so I have occasionally used storebought dressings or traditional recipes with dairy or starches as thickeners when I have been too busy to try researching yet another new recipe that might be "the one".
So given that I am such a huge fan of Mark's work, and given that I really needed ideas for sauces, dressings, and toppings, I thought that this book would be a slam dunk hit. And I am really enjoying it. But I have to say I'm a little bit disappointed because I was really hoping for a number of warm sauces that I could use over spaghetti squash, vegetables, and meats to make them seem like old familiar favorites. While this book shines in the dressings and condiments department, there are very few sauces in the book that would be good warm, over dinner foods.
