Stir-frying is one of the quickest and easiest ways to cook - and
one of the healthiest, using little oil and retaining more
nutrients than many other methods. It also requires very little
equipment - all you need a wok, a knife and a chopping board.
Learning what separates a good stir-fry from a great one, however,
is not always so easy to master. Indeed, it is all about timing,
knowing when to add what and how to get the best out of each
ingredient. With tips on everything from controlling the heat to
using the right oil, bestselling author Ching-He Huang has gathered
together a collection of delicious dishes, simple enough for every
day and with nutrition, taste and affordability in mind. Many are
gluten and dairy free, as well as suitable for vegans and
vegetarians, and include both Asian and Western ingredients readily
available in any supermarket. So whether or not you eat meat, love
carbs or prefer to avoid them, want something special or find
yourself having to feed your family, Stir Crazy will do the trick.

Upgrade your performance and diet. Get real and break free from the
packaged bars and powders. Admit it, your idea of sports nutrition
needs an upgrade. Are you still reaching for low-fat cheese sticks
and peanut butter bagels for pre-event meals? Let's get real and
break free from the packaged bars and powders. Active people,
fitness lovers and athletes need practical guidance and proper
knowledge about nutrition. Real Fit Kitchen is just what you're
craving. Nutrition experts Tara Mardigan and Kate Weiler prove that
the foods, supplements and beverages, that many think are aiding
performance, are actually hindering and can be easily replaced with
healthy, real, clean food. For example: - Instead of consuming
chemical-laden and performance-hindering additives in packaged
recovery drinks, make your own performance-boosting chocolate
protein recovery drink. - Replace liver-damaging pain-relief
medications that dehydrate and disrupt electrolyte absorption, try
a tart cherry juice smoothie. - Substitute peanut butter laden with
inflammatory trans fat and added sugar for muscle-rebuilding pecan
cashew maca butter. More nutritious than store bought products,
Real Fit Kitchen provides 100 healthy meals, snacks, smoothies, and
more, including new ingredients (like performance-enhancing raw
cacao, turmeric, and chlorella) to upgrade anyone's diet. Learn to
make more efficient, cost-effective meals that your whole family
will eat. Enjoy natural food, and replace sports nutrition
unhealthy products that do not properly sustain an active lifestyle
with delicious and easy recipes that the whole family will love.
"Finally--a cookbook that combines common sense, nutrition science,
and a passion for delicious food! Kate and Tara's recipes help us
eat for an active, healthy, balanced life, with an emphasis on
real, plant-based foods rather than highly processed bars and
powders. I recommend this book to anyone looking for inspiration to
create delicious, satisfying meals. I wish all of my patients would
take this book to heart--the world would be a happier, healthier
place!" - Dara Lee Lewis, M.D., FACC, instructor, Harvard Medical
School and cardiologist, Lown Cardiovascular Center "Tara and Kate
are one of the greatest teams nutrition has ever seen. Their
blockbuster playbook of recipes and eat-to-win advice is a
must-read for anyone who wants to take care of their body. I
learned a new fact on every page and will eat much better from now
on because of it." - Jon Meterparel, play-by-play voice of Boston

There was a time when garden designer Cleve West questioned the
importance of his role as a garden designer. Two things changed his
mind: designing a garden for a hospital and adopting a vegan
lifestyle. Cleve's transition to veganism was a profound and varied
learning experience. He learned more about nutrition than when he
studied it as part of a sports science degree. He learned a great
deal about propaganda in the food industry and how, contrary to
what he'd been led to believe, the cows and chickens in the dairy
industry are far from 'happy'. He learned that animal agriculture
is a leading cause of climate change and a whole range of
environmental catastrophes. He found that many illnesses have their
origins in the consumption of animal products. He learned that a
plant-based diet can alleviate some of these illnesses and
sometimes even reverse them. He learned that a drive towards a
plant-based diet could offset many of the environmental aspects of
animal agriculture and make a positive transition to a more
sustainable future. Everything started falling into place. It was
all about plants. Suddenly, his role as a garden designer didn't
seem so trivial after all. The Garden of Vegan charts Cleve's
journey from its tentative beginnings to an understanding of the
restorative power of gardens and a realization that some of the
most destructive aspects of the Anthropocene can be mitigated or
even fixed by plants.
A cookbook with a conscience, from an author who knows the world of
responsible eating as well as anyone. Is cage-free the same as
free-range? Is grass-fed worth the price? What's better: farmed
salmon or wild? Organic salad that's been shipped across the
country, or local salad grown with pesticides? To nuke leftovers in
the microwave or crank up the oven? Myra Goodman--co-owner of
Earthbound Farm, the country's largest producer of organic produce
and other products, inspiration behind the Earthbound Farmstand
Cafe, and author of" Food to Live By"--now brings both sides of the
dinner dilemma together by showing us what to shop for, and how to
cook it."The Earthbound Cook" turns dilemma into joy--in
full-color. It pairs 250 sumptuous recipes with all the information
cooks need to make greener, smarter choices. Here is Pork Chile
Verde, Beef Tenderloin with Brandy Mushroom Sauce, Chicken
Puttanesca--plus how to make the most eco-friendly meat choices and
how to decode the labels on poultry and eggs. Vegetarian entrees
such as Roasted Cauliflower Tart and Rigatoni with Eggplant and
Buffalo Mozzarella for that one day a week we should abstain from
meat. Salads (Escarole with Walnuts, Dates, and Bacon, Farro Salad
with Edamame and Arugula) and sides (Carrot Risotto) and all the
facts about the benefits of eating organically. And fish of
course--Coconut-Crusted Salmon, and why to choose wild whenever
possible.No sacrifices here--doing the right thing has never
looked, sounded, or tasted better. Or been easier.

We suffer today from food anxiety, bombarded as we are with
confusing messages about how to eat an ethical diet. Should we eat
locally? Is organic really better for the environment? Can
genetically modified foods be good for you?
JUST FOOD does for fresh food what "Fast Food Nation" (Houghton
Mifflin, 2001) did for fast food, challenging conventional views,
and cutting through layers of myth and misinformation. For
instance, an imported tomato is more energy-efficient than a local
greenhouse-grown tomato. And farm-raised freshwater fish may soon
be the most sustainable source of protein.
Informative and surprising, JUST FOOD tells us how to decide what
to eat, and how our choices can help save the planet and feed the
world.

pasta shapes, and gives tips for retaining brilliant colors even
when cooked. Once you've mastered the basics, you'll find recipes
for more elaborate patterns and colors that are sure to impress

The Olami cookbook from Nirit Saban of the popular deli on Bree
Street, Cape Town is all about simple, nourishing, wholesome food.
Olami, a word used in Israel, means global, universal and worldly,
and Nirit's recipes open the door to many fusions and intermingling
flavours from the Middle East to South America. A book that keeps
in mind the local, the recipes with easy-to-source ingredients make
it accessible to everyone. 'There is something magical that happens
at Olami every day, whether it be the flavours we combine, the
music that streams through the sound of sizzling and steaming and
bubbling, the voices of our customers and friends and family, the
arrival and departure of our suppliers - the consistent flow of
work and production all adds up to a melting pot of powerful
elements that nourish the team and the customers in the most
inspiring way. The intention behind Olami and my life is to be as
connected to nature as nature is to us. We at Olami are incredibly
humbled at this opportunity to share the food we love with
everyone.' - Nirit Saban In the book one will find classic recipes
with a twist, the focus being on using original flavour bases with
different combinations to create meals with flair and flavour. One
can roast butternut with a glaze of honey and sprinkled toasted
sesame seeds or one can mash the butternut and top it with loads of
parsley, lemon, olive oil and a dusting of sweet paprika.

family members, and moderate budgets. Melissa Sevigny firmly

enjoying the food you're eating.
