Love the Foods That Love You Back

“Love The Foods That Love You Back is for the food curious and people who like to cook as well as for home cooks who want to reinvigorate their repertoires and uncover the healing properties of food. [It] is just the kind of inspiration for those who want to eat mindfully but don’t want to skimp on taste and the foods they crave.” —VEGAN MAGAZINE

“The recipes look delicious, with so much variety to choose from!”—Michael Greger, M.D. FACLM, New York Times bestselling author, founder, NutritionFacts.org

“Can a plant-only, (oil and salt free) diet even taste better than one that includes oil, salt and animal products?  Can we protect our health, aid our planet, and still enjoy gourmet flavor and eating pleasure? Yes, and yes! My lifelong friend, Cathy Katin-Grazzini has produced a fantastic and beautiful cookbook…that you must get.”—Joel Fuhrman, M.D., Seven-times New York Times bestselling author, President, Nutritional Research Foundation

“Cathy takes us on a culinary journey around the world in Love the Foods That Love You Back. Her recipes are full of complex flavors, while still being approachable for the everyday home cook. Each dish is a celebration of whole foods, plant-based ingredients and the beauty of plant-based eating.”—Alora Middleton Hale, Publisher & Editor-in-Chief at VEGWORLD Magazine

“… a remarkable resource. It will delight those who are new to healthful eating and will also provide innumerable new dishes for more experienced folks who would like to bring their recipes to a whole new level.” —Neal D. Barnard, MD, FACC, President, Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine

“… an extraordinary cookbook with breathtakingly beautiful photography.  Cathy Katin-Grazzini’s wisdom and transformation of peasant traditions from around the world will convince anyone who reads it that plant-based no oil food is incredibly delicious and a secret to vibrant health.”—Ann Crile Esselstyn, Co-author of The Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease Cookbook

“Love the Foods That Love You Back is a high standard to meet in elegant low-fat vegan cooking. This book is filled with starch-based recipes from all over the world. The kinds that satisfy your appetite and give you an energy-packed day, with dishes of corn, potatoes, rice, and wheat, paired with colorful fruits and vegetables. Buy it and use it. It’s beautiful.” —John McDougall, MD, Writer, Teacher, and Mary McDougall, Researcher and Inventor of Low-Fat, Vegan Cooking

"My wife and I have long embraced and espoused this very principle- we can love foods that love us - our health, our planet, our fellow creatures - back.  Looking across an expanse of cultures and rich culinary traditions, this book beautifully, deliciously, and lovingly delivers on that promise."—David L. Katz, MD, MPH, President, True Health Initiative, Past President, American College of Lifestyle Medicine

“If Cathy's book was available 45 years ago when I became vegan, everyone would have gone vegan.  Beautifully photographed, you wish you could eat the food right off the page!  With recipes like Layered Vegetable Torte, Baked Chard in Bechamel, and Pear and Blueberry Tart, you'll think you died and went to vegan heaven.  Healthy food never looked or tasted this good.”
—Chef AJ, author of the bestselling The Secrets To Ultimate Weight Loss
