Mediterranean Diet

The Mediterranean diet is based on a variety of cuisine options rich in aromas, nutrients, and colors. It has been voted by many scientists as one of the healthiest diets in the world. The Mediterranean lifestyle comes from the eating habits of people who live in Italy and Greece. It is not a restrictive diet. One of the best things about the Mediterranean diet is that it is so varied. In this book you'll learn what the Mediterranean diet is and how to follow it to lose weight, improve your health, and experience the countless benefits of the Mediterranean lifestyle. People often fail to eat healthier because they can't stick to their new healthy habits. That's why this guide includes a 30-day meal plan with healthy and easy-to-make Mediterranean recipes. This guide will teach you: the history and basics of the Mediterranean diet plan; all the foods you should and shouldn't eat; 13 tips to enjoy the benefits of the Mediterranean lifestyle; the health benefits of following the Mediterranean diet; how to eat the right nutrients with the Mediterranean pyramid; a complete 30-day Mediterranean meal plan; and easy-to-make recipes for healthy breakfasts, lunches, and dinners. Remember, the secret is to do what Mediterranean people have been doing for centuries: eat healthy foods, have an active lifestyle, and, when the moment comes, don't be leery of opening that bottle of rich cabernet you have been savoring for special occasions. Some recipes you'll find in this book: breakfast quinoa, cauliflower and kale frittata, egg salad sandwich, spaghetti squash lasagna, grilled polenta with vegetables, artichoke and tomato gnocchi, and caprese chicken.
