Losing weight is really a very simple and uncomplicated process. There are only three basic rules which you must follow: Rule Number One: You must minimize your consumption of foods that are void of color or that grow below ground. Rule Number Two: You must "refine" less "fuel" than your body uses. Rule Number Three: You must avoid what I call the "Deprivation Syndrome" by eating a minimum of three proper meals per day and by selecting one day per week as a "Free Day" to eat anything that you want. These three rules served as guides during the approximately twenty years of research and development for this cookbook. If you will use the specified ingredients, prepare the dishes as instructed and eat only the foods listed in this cookbook, you should lose as much weight as you want like many others have done. All too often, diet "gurus" will explain, in detail, their theories but leave you with the question, "But what do I eat?" I have chosen to take the opposite approach by providing you with dozens of delicious weight loss recipes, without the technical jargon, along with an extensive list of permitted and color-coded foods from which you may choose. When I learned about the culprits that were making me fat, I researched recipes in hundreds of cookbooks, but rarely found a single one that was not loaded with an excessive amount of fat-producing elements. Therefore, I began the time-consuming process of developing and testing my own recipes that excluded the use of most such elements. Although some of the recipes in this cookbook do contain small amounts of carbohydrates, the amounts are insignificant, and therefore non-fattening, when considered in relation to the sum of all the ingredients in the recipe. Also, some carbohydrates become non-fattening when combined with certain other ingredients. This complex combining factor has also been incorporated into the recipes through a color-coding system for your convenience. In summary my proven weight loss theories have been i

With a little imagination you can turn a "diet" into a life-style of truly sensational eating. Just because we wish to consume fewer carbohydrates should be no reason to assume we want to eat less tasty food. Whether you are trying a particularly low carb diet such as the early stages of Atkins, or a more forgiving "slow carb diet" there will be recipes, hints and ideas to help you remain satisfied with the flavor of what you are now eating, whilst you lose weight. In fact, I am pretty confident that none of the following recipes will really seem like "diet" food at all, and should be healthy options you continue to enjoy even if you revert to a more traditional approach to carbohydrates in your future.

Jennifer Joyce presents a selection of 'street food' recipes from around the globe, the flavour-filled, exotic foods 'to go' that we may have bought from hawkers or markets on our overseas travels, or that we purchase from our local takeaway or food truck. With this book, we can whip up a rich variety of international street food ourselves, creating dishes that are quick and easy to prepare, and which are often cheaper and usually much healthier than the bought variety. A collection of 150 dishes (organised into chapters by country) draws together recipes for mouth-watering tacos, burgers, curries, souvlaki, gozleme, noodles and dumplings, ceviche, pizza and many more. Clever shortcuts like spice pastes and modern cooking methods (for example, using a pressure cooker to create meltingly tender meat in a snap) mean the majority of dishes can be prepared and served in a really timely and efficient way for relaxed weekday eating.

After living in large and medium sized cities all over the U.S. and England we found ourselves in a very small town in central Illinois. Instead of a choice of food stores I found one store, which didn't carry many products I was used to buying. That started the adventure. Often there was someone who would stop me and point to something and ask, "What is that and what do you do with it?" So I found myself standing in the aisles explaining what something was and giving out recipes. One day I got a phone call from Steve Hoffman, the Editor of the Farmer City Journal. He said he wanted me to write a food column for the paper."What would you want me to write?"I asked."Anything you want," he said. "You know recipes and such, I guess."How many words?"Whatever you need."I called my friend, Pat, and said, "what have you gotten me into, and what will I call this column?"She quickly said, "My Neighbor's Kitchen".I was actually going to be paid for talking? My husband said that should be easy, and won't take much time, so why not?" Beware of such comments. Where would I find the time I asked myself. I'm already swamped trying to keep up with my work as a photo restorationist. And there was always genealogy research and lectures, the filming of several hours of genealogy research lectures to be shown on the local TV station, working in the Family History Center, the family newsletter I was trying to get started, and all the things around the house that were getting short shrift. It wasn't easy and it did take a lot of time, but I also learned I liked writing whatever I wanted. Well, the ideas started rolling. If I imagined I was sitting in a neighbor's kitchen, talking about this and that, we would end up talking about recipes. What if I started the column the same way-hmm-It might work. So that's how it started. At the beginning of each column I would have a little topical essay that would segue into a food and nutrition column. As with most things the idea was easier than th

The Persians of antiquity were renowned for their lavish cuisine and their never-ceasing fascination with the exotic. These traits still find expression in the cooking of India's rapidly dwindling Parsi population-descendants of Zoroastrians who fled Persia after the Sassanian empire fell to the invading Arabs. The first book published in the United States on Parsi food written by a Parsi, this beautiful volume includes 165 recipes and makes one of India's most remarkable regional cuisines accessible to Westerners. In an intimate narrative rich with personal experience, the author leads readers into a world of new ideas, tastes, ingredients, and techniques, with a range of easy and seductive menus that will reassure neophytes and challenge explorers.

This is a collection of recipes that my mother, grandmothers, great-grandmothers, aunts and great-aunts cooked again and again. Some of them date back to the Civil War. Many were taught to cook using these time tested treasures and this book was created to preserve them and pass them down to the next generation of cooks. These recipes are family favorites and are still made today. These include Curried Shrimp, Beef Stroganoff, Macaroni and Cheese, Pulled Sweet and Sour Beef, and the most luscious chocolate Cake ever tasted. Some of them are new favorites that have been added such as Cranberry Chicken, Lasagna Blanca, Blackberry Muffins and Key Lime Cake.
