Valentine’s Day is literally just around the corner, and is traditionally a time to let loose and shower your loved ones with love and tempting treats.
But just because you want to spoil them with delicious eats, it doesn’t mean you have to spoil their New Year’s resolution to eat better: Download my latest digital booklet full of recipes and tips to make Valentine’s a success.
As many of you know, I teach people how to maintain a healthy diet, but as a professionally trained chef I’ll be the first one to admit that taste is just as important to me as eating the right foods. But I believe that you can have both, by using good quality ingredients that are high in the nutrients you need and the flavors you love. That’s why I will co-teach a Body Beautiful Tune-Up Food & Fitness Workshop on February 28 with Suzanne Ausnit, founder of Full Potential Yoga.
If you haven’t already, please order your copy of my new cookbook, “Secrets Of A Skinny Chef”, a collection of America’s favorite recipes made healthier and tastier, plus some of my recipes with a twist that could become new favorites.
Finally, below is a reminder of some of the posts from last month, including a new clip from my appearance on NBC’s LX New York. For a complete listing, check out the January 2010 blog archive.
