Nutrition/Cookbook References

    There are times when we all get a little sick and tired of cooking the same old thing or doing the same form of exercise. When I get into one of these ruts I like to do a little research out there to see what's new. I've listed a few cookbooks and websites that have some great recipes and fitness/lifestyle tips. Some of them are very diet specific (Alicia Silverstone & Elizabeth Hasslebeck), and others are more about cooking fresh whole foods (Alice Waters & Gwyneth Paltrow). At the heart of these cookbooks are a focus on cooking the best foods possible for you based on your needs. Also look at the websites listed below. Gabby Reece put together a wonderful website about fitness, nutrition and connecting women together. And you can get great healthy recipes from Cooking Light.com and 100 days of Real Food. Try out a few of these new references. They may energize your routine.

CookBooks:
1.    Elizabeth Hasslebeck – Deliciously G-Free, The G-Free Diet (gluten Free)
2.    Alicia Silverstone – The Kind Diet (vegan food)
3.    Gwyneth Paltrow – My father’s daughter (whole food)
4.    Rocco diSpirito – Now eat this cookbook (cutting calories)
5.    Alice Waters - In the Green Kitchen: Techniques to Learn by Heart (recipes all about sustainable, local cooking using fresh, local and seasonal ingredients)
