Mediterranean Diet: Recipes For Homemade Greek Appetizers: Delicious Greek Recipes (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798457361850)

The Mediterranean diet varies by country and region, so it has a range of definitions. But in general, it's high in vegetables, fruits, legumes, nuts, beans, cereals, grains, fish, and unsaturated fats such as olive oil. It usually includes a low intake of meat and dairy foods.
The Mediterranean Diet consists of eating the traditional foods of the countries adjacent to the Mediterranean Sea especially the country of Greece. It is not a traditional diet where a person will lose weight but based on a lifestyle involving activities, foods, and wine. The Mediterranean diet is based on Christian beliefs and customs. In the lovely country of Greece, the orthodox religion contributes to this beautiful diet.
