In a Cajun Kitchen


Book Description

When most people think of Cajun cooking, they think of blackened redfish or, maybe, gumbo. When Terri Pischoff Wuerthner thinks of Cajun cooking, she thinks about Great-Grandfather Theodore's picnics on Lake Carenton, children gathering crawfish fresh from the bayou for supper, and Grandma Olympe's fricassee of beef, because Terri Pischoff Wuerthner is descended from an old Cajun family. Through a seamless blend of storytelling and recipes to live by, Wuerthner's In a Cajun Kitchen will remind people of the true flavors of Cajun cooking. When her ancestors settled in Louisiana around 1760, her family grew into a memorable clan that understood the pleasures of the table and the bounty of the Louisiana forests, fields, and waters. Wuerthner spices her gumbo with memories of Cajun community dances, wild-duck hunts, and parties at the family farm. From the Civil War to today, Wuerthner brings her California-born Cajun family together to cook and share jambalaya, crawfish étoufée, shrimp boil, and more, while they cook, laugh, eat, and carry on the legacy of Louis Noel Labauve, one of the first French settlers in Acadia in the 1600s. Along with the memories, In a Cajun Kitchen presents readers with a treasure trove of authentic Cajun recipes: roasted pork mufaletta sandwiches, creamy crab casserole, breakfast cornbread with sausage and apples, gumbo, shrimp fritters, black-eyed pea and andouille bake, coconut pralines, pecan pie, and much more. In a Cajun Kitchen is a great work of culinary history, destined to be an American cookbook classic that home cooks will cherish.

Pegan Diet Cookbook for Beginners: 100 Simple and Delicious Recipes with Pictures to Easily Add Healthy Meals to Your Busy Schedule (Low-Carb, Vegetarian, Vegan, +14-Day Meal Plan for an Quick Start)


Book Description

Vegan and paleo—the best of both worlds. With the multitude of diets that claim to help you get healthy and lose weight, it can be hard to know which one to choose. Two stand out over the rest—vegan and paleo. Both have undeniable evidence showing their effectiveness, and both have scientific rationale to back them up. Once you’ve narrowed it down to these two, how can you possibly choose? Wouldn’t it be better to do both? The problem is that, at first glance, they seem incompatible. The paleo diet is heavy on meat and animal products, while veganism excludes all of them. What most people don’t realize is that the pegan diet is a seamless way to combine the two. The pegan diet uses both diets’ positive principles rather than the restrictions, meaning it allows for the consumption of some meat while limiting whole grains, legumes, and dairy. The result is a focus on the high-protein whole foods that will help you shed pounds and feel great. Pegan Diet for Beginners Cookbook is a reference that covers the fundamentals of the pegan diet while giving you a plethora of mouthwatering recipes to choose from. The recipes which are suitable for vegan, vegetarian, or low-carb diets are labeled in the table of contents. Inside Pegan Diet for Beginners Cookbook, you will discover: -An introduction to the vegan diet, including why plant-based foods are healthier for you -An explanation of the paleo diet and why we should look back to the ancient knowledge of our ancestors -How the pegan diet combines the two and multiplies the benefits exponentially -What you need to stock in your pantry to get started on the pegan diet -How to enjoy dining out with friends without compromising your new way of eating -Why meal prepping is the best way to stick to your diet, and the step-by-step methods you can use to do it -Breakfast and brunch recipes like healthy pancakes and chia nut pudding -Plant-based main courses like skillet kale and avocado -Vegetarian soups, salads, and snacks to start off your meals and replenish between them -Chicken and poultry recipes to up your protein and fill your belly -Fish and seafood main courses like coconut and hazelnut haddock -Beef and pork dishes to satisfy your red meat cravings -A 14-day meal plan for an easy start -100 recipes with pictures of each finished meal There’s no need to choose between the diets that appeal to you. The pegan diet is a flexible, easy to follow way of eating that will help you feel better than ever while also dropping pounds and inches. This cookbook is for those who want to go veggie, but can’t live without meat and fish; are always looking for new, healthy recipes that are delicious and easy to make; or are trying to cut back on meat consumption and increase vegetable intake.
