The 2-Day Diet Cookbook

The authors of The 2-Day Diet offer 65 delicious, healthy recipes to lose weight by dieting just two days a week and eating normally for five

The 2-Day Diet is not about counting calories, fasting, or going hungry—simply follow the straightforward low-carb eating plan for two days per week then eat normally but sensibly for the other five. This new, beautifully illustrated cookbook offers 65 delicious, healthy recipes for every day of the week, with ideas for both restricted and unrestricted days. Dieters can enjoy filling, tasty food from breakfast through to dinner, and still lose more weight and up to twice as much fat as on a standard calorie-controlled diet. Readers will also benefit from a wide range of health benefits associated with the diet, such as reducing insulin and levels of other hormones and inflammation in the body known to cause cancer, lowering high blood pressure, and improving well-being, mood, and energy levels. Recipes for restricted days include Stuffed Tarragon Chicken with Bacon and Roasted Veg; Chimichurri Steak; Spiced Turkey Burgers with Guacamole; Salmon with Roasted Fennel, Leeks and Tomatoes; Blackberry Frozen Yoghurt; and Melon, Mint and Pineapple Granita. With nutritionally balanced, easy-to-prepare, and delicious recipes like these, along with tips, meal plans, and a quick-reference guide to what to eat, this cookbook teaches readers how to love food, lose weight, and keep it off forever. Includes dual measurements.
