The Bonus Years Diet or Cooking with Three Ingredients

The Bonus Years Diet: 7 Miracle Foods-Including Chocolate, Red Wine, and Nuts-That Can Add 6.4 Years on Average to Your Life

Author: Ralph Felder

Arigorous analysis of dramatic studies on therapeutic power of nutrition has led Dr. Oscar H. Franco and a team of acclaimed researchers to determine that substituting certain foods in place of the leading medical "cocktail" for preventing cardiovascular disease yields identical benefits. As reported in the British Medical Journal, they concluded that daily consumption of seven specific foods could result, on average, in an increase in total life expectancy of 6.6 years for men and 4.8 years for women.

Dr. Ralph Felder, a physician and a master-trained chef, has now taken these groundbreaking studies out of the laboratory and put them into the kitchen. Using his inspired yet easy-toprepare recipes and creative menu plans, along with a few simple lifestyle guidelines, anyone can add healthy years to his or her life, enjoy-with few restrictions-a wide range of delicious and satisfying foods, and lose weight safely and easily, while indulging in goodies like chocolate and nuts.

Cooking with Three Ingredients

Author: Andrew Schloss

There's magic in the number three. And when it comes to cooking, the number three can create culinary magic in your kitchen. In this fabulous, original collection, three ingredients add up to much more than the sum of their parts.

Choose a simple starter, such as Smoked Salmon Mousse, Very Cheesy Nachos, Mustard-Cured Shrimp, or Chunky Corn Chowder, or go for the main event with Lemon Pepper Chicken, Balsamic-Glazed Sirloin, or Grilled Honey Mustard Pork. There are three-ingredient pasta sauces, delectable vegetables and sides, and even "almost instant" desserts.

Using only three ingredients means less shopping, less preparation, less cleanup -- and best of all, less time. And with the many creative ways author Andrew Schloss has put these together, no one will guess that you haven't slaved for hours in the kitchen. You'll find these recipes exceptionally easy -- and unbelievably delicious.
