425 easy and delicious recipes to make every meal heart-healthy

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

The Mediterranean and DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) eating patterns are scientifically proven to be the healthiest for our hearts, and they even have added brain health benefits. Combined, they make the MIND (Mediterranean-DASH Intervention for Neurodegenerative Delay) diet, which further reduces the risk of dementia and Alzheimer's disease. Cooking Γ  la Heart incorporates all three into one nourishing, wholesome, environmentally friendly cookbook with:

  • 500 delicious, health-promoting recipes for every meal (plus snacks and desserts), including: Spinach Scramble Pita Pockets, Turkey-Vegetable Soup, Cilantro-Lime Chicken & Corn Salad, Γ€ la Heart Mexican Inspired Mac & Cheese, Shrimp Tacos, Blueberry Crisp, and Pumpkin Spice Ginger Bars.
  • An emphasis on plant-based ingredients, healthy fats, and thoughtful use of dairy, poultry, and lean red meat.
  • Nutrition facts for calories, protein, total carbs, dietary fibre, added sugars, total fat, saturated fat, omega-3s, sodium, and potassium.

More than 35 colour photographs show off how indulgent heart-healthy eating can truly be. With Cooking Γ  la Heart, eating better isn't difficult or boringβ€”it's an investment to keep you enjoying good food for many years to come.
