I'm a Gwyneth Paltrow fan, but when her first cookbook came out, I scoffed at the idea of her writing a regular person's cookbook since I knew she had an all vegan-macrobiotic-something diet. Now, I just read that her second cookbook is coming out in April 2013.
Solely out of curiousity, I'm tempted to buy the book (when it makes it to the bargain book section of Barnes & Noble) and see if her recipes are indeed, "delicious" and help me feel more energetic and look as good as she does for her age. I'm curious to see what kind of recipes she has that don't include dairy, eggs, sugar, wheat or meat.
Here is her publisher's description of the book:
Gwyneth Paltrow, Academy-Award winning actress and bestselling cookbook author, returns with recipes for the foods she eats when she wants to lose weight, look good, and feel more energetic.
Last spring, after a particularly grueling schedule and lapse of overindulgence, Gwyneth Paltrow was feeling fatigued and faint. A visit to her doctor revealed that she was anemic, vitamin D deficient, and that her stress levels were sky high. He prescribed an elimination diet to clear out her system and help her body heal. But this meant no coffee, no alcohol, no dairy, no eggs, no sugar, no shellfish, no deep-water fish, no wheat, no meat, no soy, nothing processed at all!
An avid foodie, Paltrow was concerned that so many restrictions would make mealtime boring, so, together with Julia Turshen, she compiled a collection of delicious, easy recipes that followed her doctor's guidelines. And it worked! After changing her diet, Paltrow healed totally, felt more energetic and looked great. Now, in IT'S ALL GOOD, she shares the go-to dishes that have become the baseline for the restorative diet she turns to whenever she feels she needs it. Recipes include: Huevos Rancheros, Hummus Tartine with Scallion-Mint Pesto, Salmon Burgers with Pickled Ginger, even Power Brownies, Banana "Ice Cream," and more!
