Summary

In "Vegetarian Supplement to Scientific Feeding," Dora C. C. L. Roper offers a meticulous exploration of vegetarianism through a scientific lens, intertwining nutrition science with practical guidance. Roper employs a clear, didactic style, drawing on empirical studies and case analyses to advocate for a plant-based diet as a means to enhance both personal health and environmental sustainability. This work serves as an essential companion to her earlier volume, "Scientific Feeding," yet stands alone in its depth of analysis regarding vegetarian nutrition, addressing the evolving context of dietary preferences and public health debates in early 20th-century America. Roper, a pioneer in nutrition and dietary sciences, was influenced by her background in agricultural research and the burgeoning interest in vegetarianism during her era. Her scholarly rigor is reflected in her commitment to disseminating accessible knowledge about healthy eating. Roper's credentials lend her insights significant weight, as she became a prominent figure advocating for plant-based diets amidst growing concerns over industrial food production and health-related issues. This book is highly recommended for nutrition enthusiasts, health practitioners, and anyone interested in the implications of dietary choices on well-being and ecology. Roper's thorough research and practical advice serve as an invaluable resource for those wishing to navigate the complexities of vegetarian nutrition effectively.

    Explore The Various Benefits Of Green Smoothie Recipes And Use them To Improve Your Health And Quality Of Life  
    There are many advantages of drinking green smoothies. Sure, you're going to get more fruit and vegetables. Nonetheless, you will also find an increase in your metabolism, smoother hair, a fall in weight and even a better mood. People who follow the raw food diet have turned to green smoothies to boost a diet that is already nutritious, and many find the vitality and sense of well-being they want. 
    If you've never tried a green smoothie cleanse before, you're heading for a completely new level of wellness and energy. It may be overwhelming to pick up a glass containing a thick green liquid and drink it down, but the fact is that green smoothies do not taste anything that is different from blue, orange, red and yellow. The main difference is one of food and fiber rather than that of taste. The green color of the smoothies comes from chlorophyll. You probably learned in middle school that this is the color that helps plants perform photosynthesis; it is also this color that connects to the toxins in your system at a molecular level and pulls them out one at a time. 
    Green smoothies effectively detoxify your body, leaving you healthy and strong. This book will instruct you in how to reap the benefits of green smoothies. In addition to becoming more glamorous and radiant, you end up getting your desired weight.

    Created by a father and daughter that love to cook and eat together, this cookbook is full of delicious recipes, essential tips, and product recommendations for dads (and everyone). You will be able to print recipes and see photos. With Dad Makes Dinner you can easily make some great meals to share with your loved ones.Wanting your kids to eat more vegetables? Inside you will find a simple recipe you can use for different vegetables that your kids will absolutely love. Do you really need a recipe for a PB&J? If you want to make a GREAT one that your kids will love, this book is for you. Or, if you want to make something a little more complicated, like mouth-watering grilled salmon, this book is for you, too. We try and purchase organic products as much as possible. Our favorite places include our local farmers market, Trader Joe's, and Whole Foods. I use a lot of olive oil when I cook. Julia Child once said you need a certain amount of fat in your diet to process your vitamins. Olive oil, along with avocados and salmon, is how I prefer to get it. After researching what foods might help with boosting immunity, I discovered the benefits of mushrooms. I cook with them to support good health and to add extra umami. My daughter prefers no mushrooms, so I just take them out when I make her plate. We use mainly whole wheat bread, tortillas, and pasta.The right amount of salt and pepper can make a huge difference in flavor. When it comes to measuring, I almost always eyeball amounts. Most measurements included in the recipes are general estimates, so experiment with those. An exception is the recipe for the New Fashioned Pancakes, so follow that more closely. Most of these recipes make one or two servings, so adjust them as needed.Have fun cooking with your kids and teach them about kitchen safety. Help them learn the importance of a healthy diet, how to cook for themselves, and the joy of sharing meals together.

    THE INSTANT #1 SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER 
    From award-winning writer Nigel Slater, comes a new and exquisitely written collection of notes, memoir, stories and small moments of joy. 
    'Nigel Slater’s prose is the rarest delicacy of all: exquisite yet effortless, filled with heart, tenderness, yearning and humour' ELIZABETH DAY 
    For years, Nigel Slater has kept notebooks of curiosities and wonderings, penned while at his kitchen table, soaked in a fisherman’s hut in Reykjavik, sitting calmly in a moss garden in Japan or sheltering from a blizzard in a Vienna Konditorei. 
    These are the small moments, events and happenings that gave pleasure before they disappeared. Miso soup for breakfast, packing a suitcase for a trip and watching a butterfly settle on a carpet, hiding in plain sight. He gives short stories of feasts such as a mango eaten in monsoon rain or a dish of restorative macaroni cheese and homes in on the scent of freshly picked sweet peas and the sound of water breathing at night in Japan. 
    This funny and sharply observed collection of the good bits of life, often things that pass many of us by, is utter joy from beginning to end. 
    ‘I loved this. It is a secular book of hours – thoughts and pleasures beautifully cadenced and generously placed’ Edmund de Waal 
    ‘Nigel Slater has a magical capacity to find beauty in the smallest moments. A nourishing, sustaining book’ Olivia Laing 
    ‘His evocative, uplifting observations are a balm for life: a prose-poem for eaters and a spiritual companion for thoughtful cooks. A true and enduring joy’ Nigella Lawson 
    ‘You can’t always feel buoyant and grateful but noticing – and getting pleasure from – the seemingly insignificant is a good way to live. As he says, feel the “small moments of joy”’ Diana Henry 
    Nigel Slater, a top author and best-seller, continues to captivate with his culinary narratives and non-fiction essays. His travelogues, filled with the scent of freshly picked sweet peas and the sound of water breathing at night in Japan, are a testament to his ability to find beauty in the smallest moments. 
    For fans of Wendy Macnaughton (Lost Cat), Rick Stein (Under a Mackerel Sky), Alice Waters (Always Home), and Stanley Tucci (What I Ate in One Year).

    “A great introduction to the kamado grill, with excellent recipes not just for grilling, smoking, and smoke-roasting but also for baking and braising.” —Chris Schlesinger, coauthor of The Thrill of the Grill   With its distinctive egg or oval shape, heat-insulating ceramics, and airtight seal, the kamado is a smoker’s dream, able to maintain low and slow temperatures for up to twelve hours with no additional charcoal needed. It’s the “set it and forget it” of smokers!   In addition to smoking, grillmaster Fred Thompson has discovered that the kamado is a wonderful all-round grill. Its ability to maintain precise temperatures means it can take on most any task—grilling, roasting, braising, steaming, even baking—guaranteeing a succulent result infused with delicious smoke flavor.   The Kamado Grill Cookbook contains 193 lip-smackin’-good recipes for everything from brisket and pork shoulder to seafood, poultry, lamb, vegetables, and more.  Explore the reaches of what the kamado can do: smoke your own bacon and sausage; fire it up for Bourbon-Glazed Bone-in Ribeye Steaks; feed friends and family with an Old-Fashioned Oyster Roast; or end a meal with a kamado-baked Pig-Picking Fudge Cake.  Fred will get you started on the right track with Kamado Basics, a primer chapter on everything you need to know to get the very best results from your kamado grill.   “Fred Thompson thinks like a flame and always knows what every ingredient wants . . . and why.” —Peter Kaminsky, coauthor of Mallmann on Fire
