Indulge Healthfully: Giada De Laurentiis’ Super-Italian Recipes
From the day Giada De Laurentiis—New York Times bestselling author of nine cookbooks and Emmy Award-winning TV host—started cooking professionally, her formula for memorable meals hasn’t changed: Good Cooking = Technique + Ingredients + Ambience. The same is key when choosing ingredients that promote wellness.
In Super-Italian: More Than 110 Indulgent Recipes Using Italy’s Healthiest Foods, De Laurentiis shares the Italian approach to healthful eating—where nothing is off the menu—and you can have your pasta and eat it, too! By using carbs and fats mindfully and amplifying vegetables, lean proteins, and flavor-boosting superfoods, you create meals that are nutritionally dense, supportive of health, and still craveable. The superfoods featured in the recipes in Super-Italian include olives and olive oil, beans and legumes, cruciferous vegetables, small fish, vinegar, and tomatoes.
