"Healthy Eating for Lower Cholesterol"

At last, a recipe book especially for those who are concerned about high cholesterol, but who also love good food. This book contains over 100 delicious recipes which I have devised based on the nutritional advice of dietitian Catherine Collins RD.

Two thirds of the UK population have high cholesterol levels, which can cause hardening of the arteries, heart attack, and stroke. We all need a certain amount of cholesterol in our bodies, but how can we keep control of the 'bad' type? Happily, eating the right foods can significantly benefit our cholesterol levels, and this book explains why and shows you how.

In devising the recipes I have drawn upon all my culinary experience to prove that healthy food need not mean boring food. The chapters on breakfasts and lunches, soups and salads, snacks and light meals, mains and desserts offer inspiration for every meal of the day. Suitable for all the family, they will help you to lower your cholesterol levels while satisfying your appetite - and your tastebuds.

"Green's Greens"

Diets come and go. One year you are eliminating red meat from your meals. The next year carbohydrates are the casualties. But what all nutritionists know is that a balanced diet combining vegatables, fruit, meat, fish and carbohydrates in the right quantities is the best diet. If you want to lose weight or simply eat better, reducing fats is the first place to start.

In my first book Green's Cuisine (see below) and this new book Green's Greens, I have created quick and easy recipes with little or no fat but bursting with the flavours of The Orient. This new book, with its emphasis on vegetables often imaginatively combined with seafood and meat,  uses basil, lemongrass, chillies, fish sauce and other oriental condiments to turn humble vegetables into a symphony of flavours and colours.

Whether you're a busy mother, a fussy child, a singleton or a bon viveur, Green's Greens offers quick and easy starters, soups, main courses and desserts, which would not be out of place in your favourite restaurants. Bon appetite!

"Green's Cuisine"

Food must be exciting and tasty. With my recipes, you will be able to enjoy all your favourite foods AND lose weight. 

I have designed recipes from Italian to Thai and have adapted each so that they are very low in fat. Although I am cutting out the fat I am replacing it with the powerful & wonderful flavours of fresh herbs and Asian spices.

This book is very special to me, as I had to struggle to lose weight myself. I lost kilos on a low fat regime, but the difference was I loved food and did not want to deprive myself of my favourite meals and treats. So, I adapted my favourite foods to a low fat healthy alternative. This worked for me, and you will find many of the recipes I devised in this book.

"Green's Cuisine: Low Fat Food with a Taste of Thailand"  (ISBN 974 7248 794) is available from all good book stores.
