Marie's Books

More and more people nationwide are adopting plant-based diets­either part of the time or all of the time­as a way to stay healthy, lower cholesterol, and lose weight. The Enlightened Kitchen offers readers more than 175 recipes that make it easier­and tastier­than ever to eliminate the high-fat, cholesterol-laden free-radical producing ingredients found in traditional Western meals. Oser reveals how to use alternative ingredients to make such crowd pleasers as Cranberry Banana Bread, Spinach Artichoke Dip, and Savory Sausage Lasagna.

Soy of Cooking

Easy-to-Make, Vegetarian, Low-Fat, Fat-Free, and Antioxiadant-Rich Gourmet Recipes

Soyfoods are hot! Researchers at the National Cancer Institute have found that soyfoods are rich in anticarcinogens, and recent findings show that substances found exclusively in soybeans can lower cholesterol and help prevent disease. Numerous studies attest to the role soyfoods can play in preventing many forms of cancer, heart disease, and osteoporosis, and in controlling diabetes. In 1995 alone, more than 300 scientific papers were published attributing potent cancer-fighting characteristics to genistein, a powerful compound in soybeans. Heart disease is still the #1 killer in this country, and no one disputes the fact that elevated cholesterol levels sharply increase the risk of heart disease and stroke. At the same time, an impressive amount of research has shown the eating soyfoods can dramatically lower cholesterol levels in the blood.

Soy of Cooking is your guide to preparing delicious gourmet recipes that will help you incorporate nutrient rich soyfoods into your diet. Using over 30 new and traditional soyfoods, this innovative cookbook shows how to combine creative techniques and easy-to-find soyfoods to make 172 dishes, from appetizer to dessert, all with five grams of fat or less!

There is a guide to useful cooking techniques, tips on using spices, comprehensive nutrient analysis for each recipe, and soyfood exchange information. Marie Oser shows you how to put the goodness of soy into every course of every meal with Soy of Cooking.

Here is a sample of what many prominent and well-respected authors, medical and nutrition professionals have to say about Soy of Cooking:

"A myriad of ways to make soy delicious and nutritious"
- Dean Ornish, M.D., author of "Everyday Cooking with Dr. Dean Ornish"
