New Cookbook Release That Offers Nutritionally Balanced Menu Plans and Healthy Recipes to Increase Energy

ALW Publishing today announced release of "beHealthy Cookbook" that provides 14 menu plans and over 100 healthy recipes. The recipes are prepared with the minimum of fuss and are designed for those who desire a healthy and active lifestyle.

Port Alberni, Canada, March 12, 2012 --(PR.com)-- "We are excited about Annie’s new cookbook that focuses on whole foods. Annie has creatively provided us with a cookbook that looks at eating and cooking whole foods that awakens our bodies and our relationship to food." Fiona Devereaux, RD, Community Nutritionist for Aboriginal Health, Royal Jubilee Hospital. Erin Audrey Rowsell, Food Security Dietitian, Aboriginal Health, Vancouver Island Health Authority.

The menu plans present a way to keep your body nourished with all the correct proportions of proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins and minerals to build your natural defenses against chronic diseases. The recipes are free of dairy, gluten, red meat, starch, yeast, citrus and table salt. The focus is on creating simple, appetizing dishes that saves time in the kitchen by using few ingredients that can be easily found in supermarkets or stores that specialize in nutrient rich ingredients that are essential for a healthy diet, for example, soy beans and quinoa.

Despite the relative simplicity of these dishes, they are still elegant enough to be served at dinner parties, especially the Crab Croquettes with Spicy Salsa, Grilled Chicken & Veggie Kebabs and Wasabi Crusted Salmon. Watts' vegetable dishes are appealing and varied, including Salad with Raspberry Dressing, Cucumber and Dill Salad and Vegetable Rolls & Peanut Sauce. Watts´ desserts are equally appetizing, with Pumpkin Creme Brulees, Wild Berry Double Cream Crepes and Apricot Oat Cookies. Watts shows that delicious food can be prepared with a minimum of fuss, even with guests on the way.

Slow down, enjoy your food, live healthier, achieve your ideal weight and take this gastronomic journey. You can purchase this new "beHealthy Cookbook" right from their new website at store.behealthycookbook.com for $20.00 Canadian, volume discounts are offered.
