Book excerpt: From the #1 New York Times–bestselling co-author of Skinny Bitch, “a clever . . . mouth-watering story of a vegan chef with big dreams.” —San Francisco Book Review A rising culinary star of the vegan foodie scene, Clementine Cooper gets her big chance to impress a top food critic—until a backstabbing co-worker sabotages her exquisite entrée with butter. Blacklisted from every vegan kitchen in Los Angeles, Clem decides to open her own cooking school with aspirations of turning a neighborhood restaurant into a café. But when a sexy restauranteur settles on her dream locale as the perfect place for his steakhouse, Clem prepares for battle. Then she lays eyes on him. Zach Jeffries is way too good looking. Worse, when he shows up at her cooking class, he’s more than the meathead she expects him to be. Much more. Turns out the attraction is mutual, even if their dreams are not. So Clem does what every self-respecting single woman would do—she tries to fall in love with a more suitable man. Alexander Orr is not only a vegan chef, too, but British and adorably sweet. Yet, despite her best efforts Clem still has an irresistible taste for a certain hunky carnivore. . . . “Barnouin has cooked up one tasty love triangle. . . . Her characters are as sharp as her no-nonsense cookbooks.” —USA Today “Barnouin’s debut novel asks: Can a vegan chef find love with a carnivore? It’s lightweight fare, starring a sassy heroine.” —Kirkus Reviews “Those looking for a lazy beach reach or . . . fans of the Skinny Bitch Empire should find something here to enjoy.” —Publishers Weekly
Download or read book Skinny Bitch Bun in the Oven written by Rory Freedman and published by Running Press Adult. This book was released on 2009-03-17 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Skinny Bitch created a movement when it exposed the horrors of the food industry, while inspiring people across the world to stop eating "crap." Now the "Bitches" are back -- this time with a book geared to pregnant women. And just because their audience is in a "delicate condition" doesn't mean they'll deliver a gentle message. As they did with Skinny Bitch, Rory Freedman and Kim Barnouin expose the truth about the food we eat -- with its hormones, chemicals, and other funky stuff. But even though they are "Skinny," they want women to chow down on the right foods and gain their fair share of weight through their pregnancies. They also won't mince words on these topics: the best foods for a healthy baby and mommy the dangers of common lotions, creams, and beauty products that women slather on their bodies (many contain carcinogens) why every mother should "suck it up" and breastfeed the lowdown on what really happens "post-push" (after birth) how the companies we trust don't care about children (choosing baby food and other products carefully) With the same sassy tone that made Skinny Bitch laugh-out-loud funny, Skinny Bitch: Bun in the Oven will give expectant moms the information they need to "use their head" and have a healthy pregnancy and a healthy baby.

VB6 does away with the hard and fast rules, the calorie-counting, and the portion control of conventional diets; it's a regimen that is designed to be easy toa dopt and stick to for a lifetime. When Bittman committed to a vegan before 6:00 pm diet, he quickly realized that everything about it became easier if he cooked his own meals at home.

Drawing on a varied and enticing pantry of vegan staples strategically punctuated with "treat" foods (including meat and other animal products), he has created a versatile repertoire of recipes that makes following his plan simple, satisfying, and sustainable. Breakfasts, the most challenging meal of the day for some vegans, are well represented here, with a full range of hot cereals, whirl-and-go-dairy free smoothies, toast toppers, and brunch-worthy entrees. Lunches include hearty soupls, sandwiches, beans, grains, and pastas to pack along wherever the day takes you, and more than a dozen snack recipes provide the perfect afternoon pick-me-up to banish the vending-machine cravings that can undo a day of eating well.

If you've thought of trying a vegan diet but worry it's too monotonous or unfamiliar, or simply don't want to give up foods you love to eat, Bittman's vegan and flexitarian recipes will help you cook your way to a new, varied and quite simply better way of eating you can really commit to...for life.

Download or read book In Defence of Food written by Michael Pollan and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2008-01-31 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'A must-read ... satisfying, rich ... loaded with flavour' Sunday Telegraph This book is a celebration of food. By food, Michael Pollan means real, proper, simple food - not the kind that comes in a packet, or has lists of unpronounceable ingredients, or that makes nutritional claims about how healthy it is. More like the kind of food your great-grandmother would recognize. In Defence of Food is a simple invitation to junk the science, ditch the diet and instead rediscover the joys of eating well. By following a few pieces of advice (Eat at a table - a desk doesn't count. Don't buy food where you'd buy your petrol!), you will enrich your life and your palate, and enlarge your sense of what it means to be healthy and happy. It's time to fall in love with food again. For the past twenty years, Michael Pollan has been writing about the places where the human and natural worlds intersect: food, agriculture, gardens, drugs, and architecture. His most recent book, about the ethics and ecology of eating, is The Omnivore's Dilemma, named one of the ten best books of 2006 by the New York Times and the Washington Post. He is also the author of The Botany of Desire, A Place of My Own and Second Nature.
