Recipe & Special Offer
Dear Friend,
I want you to have this delicious recipe from my eBook, SHOP. COOK. EAT. because I want you to cook more. Why? Because it’s one of the best things you and I can do for ourselves and those we love, to boost our immune system and protect us from disease, including Covid-19. (Plus, we’ll look great in our clothes ;-)
I don’t hear our leaders encouraging us to cook, exercise, practice stress strategies, and connect with those we love more, the things that make us healthy and purposeful. So, my friend, I encourage you to try this recipe today and take your veggies to the next level. The vegetables in this dish become unctuously sweet, and buttery, without the butter or sugar.
PLUS
I have a special offer for you below. If you are having financial difficulties, and can’t afford my eBook, SHOP. COOK. EAT. for $19.99, I want you to have it for free, as my gift to you and your family during this trying time. Just follow the link below, but first, try the recipe :-)

Serving Suggestions
For the best flavor, serve these veggies in summer and fall, when
they’re in season. Get creative and add your favorite root vegetables.
Jacques Pepin serves variations of this with his famous Beef
Bourguignon (see recipe p. 72). You can also try it with fish, chicken,
lamb, or as a main dish.
This is the perfect time to learn to shop, cook, and eat healthy!
The healthiest people in the world cook their own food, most of the time. But don’t worry, you don’t have to be a gourmet. Studies show, the more you cook, the healthier you could be. And we’re talking simple meals like popping open a can of wild salmon to create a Nicoise salad that includes seasonal greens, warm potatoes, and olives, drizzled with a mustardy vinaigrette, or chicken fajitas with fresh, creamy guacamole.
