The Mediterranean Cookbook: Over 400 Delicious Recipes to Lose Weight and Stay Healthy Every Day (Part 10) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798565129441)

For years now, the Mediterranean way of life has been looked to for health inspiration, and it's easy to see why. Diets rich in fruits, vegetables, fish, and healthy fats are good for us, particularly our hearts.

Eating as they do in countries such as Greece, Italy, and Turkey has been shown to reduce the risk of heart disease. According to the Mayo Clinic, it's also associated with a reduced risk of cancer, Parkinson's disease, and Alzheimer's disease.

The Mediterranean Cookbook for Everyone will bring the Mediterranean--from Italy and Greece to Morocco and Egypt, to Turkey and Lebanon--into your kitchen with more than 400 fresh, flavorful recipes. It translates the famously healthy Mediterranean diet for home cooks with a wide range of creative recipes, many are fast enough to be made on a weeknight, using ingredients available at your local supermarket.

The structure of the book follows the guidelines of the Mediterranean Diet Pyramid. You'll find large chapters devoted to Beans and to Vegetables, the Seafood Chapter is larger than Poultry and Meat, and the Fruits and Sweets chapter, while shorter, is packed with recipes you can truly feel good eating.

Recipes include Spiced Baked Rice with Potatoes and Fennel, Tagliatelle with Artichokes and Parmesan, Orzo with Shrimp, Feta, and Lemon, Za'atar-Rubbed Chicken, Greek-Style Braised Pork with Leeks, and Orange Polenta Cake.
