Wonderful Recipes and a diet that WORKS!,
The Menopause Diet Mini-Meal Cookbook is the companion book to The Menopause Diet. While Dr. Gillespie sets forth the “whys” of mid-life belly fat in The Menopause Diet and gives the reader guidelines for a diet that will take off weight, the Mini-Meal Cookbook gives sample daily menus and GREAT recipes. Dr. Gillespie shows her extensive cooking background in these recipes, which use no convenience products and lots of fresh, interesting ingredients. The Menopause Diet is a lifestyle diet, not a quick fix. In giving readers a diet plan that works and giving recipes that are healthy, flavorful and satisfying to boot, Dr. Gillespie is giving us the tools to conquer mid-life spread. The lemon-tarragon Chicken, The Bahian Black Bean Chili, the Tu Tu Tun Lodge Grilled Salmon, and all the omelets are great–tonight I am making the Zucchini Noodles! Who needs pasta??

|Cooking with the Goddesses,
I’m no cooking Goddess, but these recipes make dinner guests sing my praises! I’ve had 2 recent dinner parties and served several recipes from this book. Both meals got rave reviews from all – especially the MEN! The cookbook supports the excellent food plan, yet can stand alone for anyone who wants to try eating healthy-low carbohydrate. My husband is following the Atkins plan, yet prefers these recipes to stay within his diet. The recipes are easy to follow with most requiring only one or 2 steps to a complete entree. I’ve served the salmon, thyme chicken, and grilled asparagus to guests and made the chicken salad for myself for lunch. I especially like Gillian Anderson’s apple snack idea – there’s no X-File about any of this!
