Join actress, activist, and New York Times bestselling author Pamela
Anderson for a deeply personal culinary journey that harmonizes style,
compassion, and the pleasures of plant-based cooking
In a career spanning fame and activism, Pamela Anderson has ventured
from a humble upbringing to the forefront of Hollywood-and has always
been a passionate cook and gardener. Now, she invites you into her
kitchen to share 80 delicious recipes that nourish the soul.
This cookbook began as a box of recipe cards: a housewarming gift for
her sons inspired by homegrown traditions and world travel. It grew to
become her gift to you, showing how romantic, comforting, and indulgent
it can be to cook only with vegetables.
At Pamela's down-to-earth fairy kingdom on Vancouver Island, you'll
join her on the dock for chicory dandelion coffee and whipped cranberry
porridge, for picnics in the forest with a green goddess mason jar
salad and tomato galette, and at the dinner table for her
anti-inflammatory lentil soup, minty pea-potato pierogis, and more.
She also shares her love affair with bread, from maple-glazed cinnamon
rolls to rustic sourdough loaves and fougasse dipped in herby pistou,
alongside insights into life, love, entertaining guests, and preserving
nature's bounty.
Osteoporosis, the brittle-bone disease, was long considered one of
the inevitable curses of aging. Many of us have watched our
grandmothers and mothers gradually become more stooped, more prone
to bone fractures. Recent medical evidence indicates that
osteoporosis may be prevented if we increase our calcium intake
beginning in our late twenties, and prevention is still possible
even if we do not start increasing our calcium intake until our
forties. For calcium to work most effectively against bone loss it
must be taken in specific proportion to other kinds of foods
something a simple calcium supplement does nothing to ensure. The
Calcium Cookbook shows us how to do just that in two hundred
delicious ways. It offers recipes that provide the calcium and
other nutrients essential for prolonged well-being, without
depending on high-calorie or high-cholesterol foods. Each recipe is
carefully designed to maximize the absorption of calcium."
Cooking for kids can be tricky but this book, packed with recipes
that have been tried and tested by thousands of kids, is here to
help. Feeding kids is a maze - one day they'll eat a whole cucumber
from one end to the other; for the next three weeks, they will
swear it's a slimy snozzcumber. Whether time or cash strapped, it's
all too tempting to turn to fish fingers, bangers and mash and
other kids' classics, whilst wishing it was easier to do it better
on all fronts: more exciting, more inspiring, more wholesome. If
only there was someone out there who knew how to feed kids really
well on a budget, who could inspire them to try different food, and
make it easy on the cook and easy on the pocket! Well, there is.

charity that operates in over 80 schools and feeds up to 30,000

Miers, Yotam Ottolenghi, Henry Dimbleby, Prue Leith and Amelia
Freer. This cookbook stands apart from other 'cooking for kids'
cookbooks as the recipes are tried and tested on thousands of
children. They're nutritious and proven to work. This cookbook
tells the stories and shares the recipes of the people who are
helping to transform school food. Their mission is to teach
children to love and understand real food cooked from fresh
ingredients, and to inspire them not just to eat it, but to choose
it, and to learn to cook it for themselves too. Chapters include:
