The Simply Healthy Lowfat Cookbook

The Simply Healthy Lowfat Cookbook

If you are concerned about your health, you may already be trying to maintain a diet that is low in fat and high in fiber. Now, with The Simply Healthy Lowfat Cookbook, you can go a step further toward staying healthy by preparing recipes that are packed with beta carotene and vitamin C. Known as anti-oxidant vitamins because they protect the body from the adverse effects of oxygen, these vitamins (along with vitamin E) may help prevent such illnesses as heart disease and cancer.Research has shown that the best way for your body to get vitamin C and beta carotene is to eat fruits and vegetables high in these vitamins rather than to take vitamin supplements. But which foods contain these antioxidants and how much do you need? The Simply Healthy Lowfat Cookbook, developed by the cooks and nutritionists at the Wellness Cooking School in conjunction with the editors of the University of California at Berkeley Wellness Letter, not only details the best sources and an ideal intake for these vitamins, it also answers all your questions about why antioxidants are so beneficial.To help you maintain an antioxidant-rich diet, more than 250 lowfat recipes featuring many of your favorite fruits and vegetables -- strawberries, melons, sweet potatoes, carrots, red bell peppers, tomatoes and more -- have been specially created for this book. Here are dishes that are not only delicious but innovative. For example, a recipe for California Pizza adds carrot juice to the dough to boost the beta carotene content to 17 milligrams, almost triple the minimum recommended daily intake. Ice cream and chocolate cake are made with sweet potatoes, second only to carrots as the best source of beta carotene. A recipe for sauteed spinach and kale contains 265 milligrams of vitamin C, surpassing the recommended daily intake in just a side dish.With chapters on Soups & Stews, Poultry, Fish & Shellfish, Meat, Meatless Main Courses, Pasta, Main-Course Salads, Vegetables & Grains and Desserts, Simply He...

Natural Wine for the People: What It Is, Where to Find It, How to Love It

Natural Wine for the People: What It Is, Where to Find It, How to Love It

A compact illustrated guide to the emerging and enormously popular category of natural wine, a style that focuses on minimal intervention, lack of additives, and organic and biodynamic growing methods.Today, wine is more favored and consumed that it's ever been in the United States--and millennials are leading the charge, drinking more wine than any other generation in history. Many have been pulled in by the tractor beam of natural wine--that is, organic or biodynamic wine made with nothing added, and nothing taken away--a movement that has completely rocked the wine industry in recent years. While all of the hippest restaurants and wine bars are touting their natural wine lists, and while more and more consumers are calling for natural wine by name, there is still a lot of confusion about what exactly natural wine is, where to find it, and how to enjoy it. In Natural Wine for the People, James Beard Award-winner Alice Feiring sets the record straight, offering a pithy, accessible guide filled with easy definitions, tips and tricks for sourcing the best wines, whimsical illustrations, a definitive list to the must-know producers and bottlings, and an appendix with the best shops and restaurants specializing in natural wine across the country, making this the must-buy and must-gift wine book of the year.

Fuss-Free Vegan: 101 Everyday Comfort Food Favorites, Veganized

Fuss-Free Vegan: 101 Everyday Comfort Food Favorites, Veganized

Being vegan doesn’t have to mean living off kale and quinoa, or spending your money on fancy and expensive ingredients. And it definitely doesn’t have to mean feeling limited for choices of what to eat! What if “vegan food” could mean cheesy nachos and pizza, hearty burritos, gooey spinach and artichoke dip, decadent chocolate cake or even crème brûlée? Well, it can. In Fuss-Free Vegan, Sam Turnbull shows you that “vegan” does not equal unappetizing dishes, complicated steps, ingredients you have never heard of, or even food that tastes healthy. Instead, she gives you drool-worthy yet utterly fuss-free recipes that will bring everyone together at the table, vegans and non-vegans alike, in a chorus of rave reviews. This is the cookbook Sam wishes she had when she went vegan: one that recreates and veganizes the dishes she loved most in her pre-vegan days, like fluffy pancakes and crispy bacon, cheesy jalapeño poppers and pizza pockets, creamy Caesar salad and macaroni and cheese, rich chocolate brownies and holiday-worthy pumpkin pie, to name just a few. (And there’s no hummus recipe in sight.) Say goodbye to searching endlessly around for that one special ingredient that you can't even pronounce, or cooking dishes that don’t deliver on their promise of yumminess; instead, say hello to ingredients you can pick up at your local grocery store, step-by-step techniques, and Sam’s enthusiastic voice cheering you on throughout this fun, approachable cookbook. With 101 tried-and-tested, one-of-a-kind vegan recipes for every meal, from breakfasts to lunches to dinners, and even snacks, desserts, appetizers and vegan staples, as well as handy menu plans and tips to amp up the recipes and your vegan life, Sam Turnbull and Fuss-Free Vegan are your ultimate guides in the new vegan kitchen.
