New York Times bestselling author Marla Heller, in collaboration with bestselling cookbook writer Rick Rodgers, provides simple, home-cooked, DASH-approved meals to help promote weight loss and increased health benefits.
A good diet is only as good as the food its plan provides. The DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) diet is a required medical recommendation for patients diagnosed with hypertension or pre-hypertension, as it has been proven to lower blood pressure and cholesterol without medication.
Until now, there hasn't been a definitive cookbook created by a DASH expert and filled with mouthwatering recipes designed to speed weight loss and revolutionize your health. This ultimate guide to cooking the DASH way serves up everything necessary to help you maintain a healthy lifestyle, including:
Bold Breakfasts: Cornmeal Waffles with Blueberries and Yogurt, Broccoli and Pepper Jack Omelet, and Whole Wheat Banana-Pecan Pancakes
Hearty Soups and Chowders: Homemade Clam Chowder, Mexican Chicken Tortilla Soup, and Lentil and Sausage Soup
