Mediterranean Lifestyle Cooking The Key to a Healthy Life Through Simple and Delicious Cooking

The Mediterranean plate is not only about the food but also about the lifestyle. The importance of this lifestyle is evident in the research into the longevity of the people who live in the Mediterranean and around the Aegean Sea. The enjoyment of a Mediterranean diet enriched by olive oil seems to be the key. It has often been referred to as the healthiest way to eat. It is rich in excellent olive oil, the best yogurt, whole grains, fish and seafood, sun-kissed seasonal fruits and vegetables, wild greens and bean dishes with every meal, and small portions of meat and cheeses. Mary Valle takes readers on a journey through the Mediterranean with an introduction into the use of olive oil and essential pantry items. Her style of cooking is seasonal, simple, healthy, and delicious.

Mary Valle’s love for Mediterranean food cooked by her parents inspired her to write down the memories and recipes to share with her own family. Mary’s passion for the food of her childhood is in every one of these classic recipes, handed down through generations and enlivened by her own modern twists. Mary often spends time in her family’s home village in Greece, where she learns new techniques and recipes to add to her kitchen.
