My story begins about 4 years ago when my grandson, Brandon, was restricted to a diet free of gluten, wheat, eggs, dairy, and peanuts.

 

I was totally bewildered.  How could I possibly cook properly for him and his family?  I only remember once that I wept in my kitchen pantry out of frustration, but many times I felt that inadequate.

 

Brandon’s mom gave me a couple of recipes, which I prepared on every visit.  I also had a house rule that no one was allowed to eat forbidden foods in his presence.  I felt that I was doing all that I could until one innocent remark changed my life.

 

We were in a grocery store and Brandon took my hand, led me to a display, and said longingly, “Look, Nana, those are called muffins”.  It brought tears to my eyes, and I vowed to myself that I would learn to cook delicious foods - gluten, wheat, dairy, egg, and peanut free.

 

It has been a journey of trial and error.  I cannot tell you that I have successes every time, but imagination and persistence has paid off.  I have felt led to write this book, and it is my wish that it will help your family as much as it has helped mine.

At a time when everyone is concerned about staying young and healthy for most of their lives, healthy eating habits are the key. Especially the regular intake of fruits and vegetables contributes significantly to a healthier way of life. In this case eating a rainbow by choosing assorted colors of fruits and vegetables is certainly one of the best strategies for keeping bad health at bay. But no less rewarding can be eating solely green foods. In fact, green vegetables are not just an excellent source of essential vitamins and nutrients. When cooked, they may be the most versatile and delicious food to be enjoyed at the dinner table. But what exactly is in the greens? How can they be incorporated into a diet? How is it possible to maintain good health and enjoy good food at the same time? “Cooking with Healthy Greens”, is first and foremost a cookbook with 36 different recipes for delicious meals revolving around green vegetables, including avocado, broccoli, artichoke, spinach, zucchini, cucumber, brussels, green asparagus, as well as green herbs like basil, parsley, and ruccola. All can be varied to suit your taste. Apart from that there is also a brief description of the nutrients and vitamins contained in each of the green vegetables described in this book. Another unique aspect of the book is the brief historical note that introduces the origin of a particular green vegetable.
