Foods That Fight Cancer kick-started a revolution in our understanding of the cancer-fighting properties of food.
Now we know the value of green tea, dark chocolate and red wine, but how can we incorporate these foods into our daily diet in practical and creative ways? Authors Richard Beliveau and Denis Gingras have teamed up with professional chefs to do just that and this is the result. Featuring 160 specially created, mouth-watering recipes, this gorgeous full-colour cookbook covers quick, one-pot family meals to more impressive dishes ideal for entertaining, including Moroccan Beef and Chickpea Veloute, Leek and Goat Cheese Lasagna, Red Tuna Carpaccio and Raspberry Clafoutis. There's also a detailed round-up of all the featured foods (including mushrooms, garlic, berries, tomatoes and citrus) and a thoroughly accessible update on the latest research developments in the field. An essential companion to its bestselling predecessor, Cooking with Foods that Fight Cancer combines all the benefits of good nutrition with the sheer pleasure of good eating.
