Now, in his first-ever cookbook, THE SHRED DIET COOKBOOK (St. Martin’s Press, March 3, 2015, $27.99), Dr. Ian deliciously answers the question so many of those dieters have asked: Can I eat that on SHRED? “I wanted to assemble a group of recipes that can help you lose weight, but would never be considered diet food,” says Dr. Ian. “What would life be without pancakes, pizza, and good barbecue?” Proving that healthy food can be fun and tasty and satisfying, THE SHRED DIET COOKBOOK is filled with:
• Midday recipes: from Heavenly Cheeseburgers to Green Bean and Artichoke Stir Fry
• Protein-rich dinners that are quick to make and satisfying to eat: from Cheese-packed Chicken Breasts to Seared Mustard Pork Chops and Cider-braised Onions
• Side-dishes: from Crispy Sweet Potato Wedges with Ginger-Soy Glaze to Creamy Polenta
• Snack ideas so simple and so good you’ll want to plan a party around them
• Carb recipes really count, including pancakes, potatoes, and pastas
• Southern specialties and recipes from Dr. Ian’s family: from Dr. Ian’s Sweet Barbecue Steaks to Uncle Johnny’s Black-eyed Pea Salad to Ma’s Eggplant Parmesan
• Complete nutritional information and portioning for each recipe
• Over 75 all-new recipes for meal--replacing smoothies and soups
THE SHRED DIET COOKBOOK outlines the foundations of the Shred and Super Shred diet programs, explaining the central tenets Dr. Ian envisioned for the programs: They must be inexpensive, realistic, and they must not ask for perfection. Examples of typical days of meals and snacks on the SHRED programs help get readers started in the SHRED lifestyle.
