This 200+ page book has been years in the making and is at last complete and available.
The Healthy Cookie: Unbaked is based on a blog called The Healthy Cookie that I kept during the period from August 2006 when I was first diagnosed with Crohn’s disease, and concluding in June, 2008 upon beginning my practice as a nutritionist. This unedited journal chronicles my two-year adventure from sickness to a place I never could have imagined for myself- optimal health. What is unique in this story is that it is not a reflection. I am not writing it now, looking back at what I went through and what I learned from the experience. Most of these words were written as I was living and learning and therefore my understandings of what was happening in my life becomes clearer as the challenges unfold. In putting this story together in this way, I have done my best to fill in the blanks on some of the lessons learned where, as so often happens, the understandings came later.
The Healthy Cookie: Unbaked is my story… So far.
Read excerpts:
- And The Diagnosis…. (written September 6th, 2006)
- But You’re So Good At It, (written December 6th, 2006)
- What Do You Want From Me, (written May 15th, 2006)
- And That Is The End Of That… Sort Of (written, December 17th, 2007)
This is a journey that goes from sickness through healing to vibrant health, based on journal entries, which were written as truthfully and as openly as I lived them. This story may make you smile or it may make you cry. It may inspire you, motivate you, or empower you to take control of your own health. It will definitely cause you to look at your own life.

I have two intentions in sharing my story. The first is that it may help you, even just a little, to bring a little more sunshine and rainbows into your life before you are forced to encounter any great big storms. And secondly, I hope for you be as present as you can be, to create time to make a little love in the kitchen, cook up some goodness, and to live with kindness for yourself and those around you.

Hi Meghan I order mine yesterday morning and I haven’t gotten yet is there any way you could check to see if you got the order?
So exciting Meghan. Hope to post my review early next week. Such an amazing story you have to share!
Too cool, it really looks lovely! I’ll have to put this one at the top of my wish list… I just need to work through a couple new cookbooks before I can justify purchasing another.
Congratulations Meghan. Will be downloading as soon as I get home from work!
I just found out about your book through Dancing Through Life and Ginger is the New Pink. Congratulations!
