I Live in My Kitchen: But You Don't Have To! (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780692869796)

I Live In My Kitchen is more than a cookbook, it is a guide for those who are interested in taking the first step to healthy living. In the introduction, Elite describes her journey to healthy eating followed by tips for healthy cooking, a grocery shopping list for staples in the kitchen, which fats and oils to use for cooking, and quick recipes anyone can prepare. The book contains over 120 recipes varying from salads to main courses, and healthy desserts. None of the recipes contain refined sugar, white flour, processed oils, food coloring, preservatives or soy products. There is a minimal use of recommended dairy and grains in just a few recipes. You will find a rainbow of dishes using only wholesome ingredients including veggies, spices, nuts, eggs, chicken, beef, and fish. If you enjoy any of the following lifestyle diets, you will find this book particularly helpful: Clean Eating, Mediterranean, Paleo, Vegetarian, Diabetic, Celiac, Gluten Free, and Kosher. Elite proves to us that healthy eating doesn't mean boring and that a home cooked meal in the kitchen is the first step of the journey for an overall healthy lifestyle.
