In the publishing industry, this time of year is known as "New Year, New You", because it is when all the diet books come out.  Everyone wants to purge the excesses of the holiday season, and find that perfect regime, that one can FINALLY stick to… This will be the year!
What I love about [...]

I’m currently in Toronto for the holiday. I can't tell you how pleased I was to see my new book on sale in a huge Canadian bookstore, smack at the foot of the main staircase.  VERY EXCITING. 
I am also happy to announce that Amazon.com is shipping The MILF Diet prior to its official January 1st launch date.
Right now you can order your own [...]

Buckwheat is an incredible grain.  Well, actually it's a grass–not a grain–but who's keeping track? 
                          
Native to cold climates, buckwheat helps our bodies adapt to cold weather, so anyone out there who can see your breath, or needs to shovel your stoop, should consider eating buckwheat every ten days or so.  Also known as "kasha", [...]

Remember Bonne Bell Lipsmackers?  O. M. G.  I absolutely lived at the local drug store, ogling all the colors and smelling all the testers of those big, fat lip glosses.  They had ridiculously fun and lip-smacking flavors, like root beer, and watermelon.

I got up to 12 chews before everything went down the hatch.
But I kept trying. And the next day it happened. By the end of my bowl of rice and roasted winter vegetables, I had made it to 36.
And something else happened, or should I say, didn't happen.
I didn't crave a [...]

I hate to re-blog, but we ARE getting close to Thanksgiving and it is ESSENTIAL that you are all prepared to make amazing Tofu Turkeys, so I am re-posting the recipe below.
Remember: it is easy. You're basically just stuffing a dome of tofu with delicious stuffing and baking it. No biggie. It's just that the [...]

 
My good friend Aaron Steinbach is a private chef who works for the rich and famous in Hollywood these days but I met him as a young whippersnapper eating brown rice and kale.  I asked him to donate this recipe to the book because I couldn’t forget it after eating it seventeen years ago.  It’s [...]

 
                                          
By switching from animal food to plant protein, you are slowly re-building your entire body with new materials.  It’s like moving from a concrete house to a lovely wooden one.  It may feel uncomfortable for a bit… that’s why I encourage some transitional hybrid-esque dishes for a while… but you are undergoing a complete [...]
