"More than 100 recipes for the Italian dishes from the much-beloved celeb's childhood, presented with tips and hints for enjoying them without overindulging. As a member of a large, food-loving Italian family, Valerie Bertinelli has always equated food with good times and togetherness. But at one point her love of food threatened not only her health but her livelihood as an actress when personal demons drove her to overeat and make poor food choices that caused her weight to balloon by 50 pounds. Now happily svelte, remarried, and riding a new career high, Valerie has made peace with food, giving it a central--yet considered--place in her home and family celebrations. One dish at a time offers an intimate look into the beloved actress's kitchen, where she prepares a collection of treasured recipes from her Italian heritage. Along the way, she shares her insights into the portion control and mindful indulgence she has come to practice on her journey to enjoying the pleasures of the table again. Filled with gorgeous photos, including the actress in her kitchen, nutrition information accompanying each recipe, and Valerie's tips for maintaining a healthy lifestyle, One dish at a time is designed to please baby boomer fans and home cooks alike"--Provided by publisher.

Nourish : simple recipes to empower your body and feed your soul / by Bündchen, Gisele,1980-author.; Hutton, Elinor,author.; Kolenko, Eva,photographer (expression); O'Brien, Kevin(Photographer),photographer (expression);
World-renowned model and wellness advocate Gisele Bundchen presents a collection of 100 delicious, accessible recipes focused on kickstarting and maintaining a healthy lifestyle while finding balance and intention through food. Gisele believes wellness begins with food. At home, she follows an 80/20 plan, with 80 percent of her diet focused on fueling her body with healthy and lean proteins and nutrient-rich vegetables while the remaining 20 percent is reserved for eating with more flexibility (hello mom's chicken lasagna!). In her first cookbook, she devotes the first quarter of the book to walking readers through adjusting to this new mindset and offers practical guidance for making it work. From breaking cycles to setting intentions, the merits of an occasional juice fast, buying in bulk, minimizing waste, and meal planning, this book of 100 recipes is as much about cooking as it is about living with mindfulness. Just like many of us, Gisele is no stranger to restrictive diet fads and unhealthy eating habits. In Nourish, she provides guidance on how to create a routine filled with positive intention, delicious food, and gratitude to improve your health and mindset.

In this entertaining and informative book, you'll learn which edible and ornamental pairings work best to increase biodiversity, how to situate beds to best utilize natural water and light resources, and most importantly, how to begin an enriched gardening lifestyle that is beneficial, sustainable and empowering. With full-color photos, design plans, simple projects and bountiful tips, The Foodscape Revolution can be life-changing.
