Publisher Description
Dr. Oz fans are endlessly curious about what he and his family eat. They assume that the family of "America's Doctor" must live on a diet of broccoli and bean sprouts and be sworn martyrs in the church of joyless nutrient consumption. This couldn't be further from the truth. The Oz family (including Lisa's husband Mehmet) love food. It just has to be good food--not processed, artificially flavored or filled with empty calories. The Ozes understand the power of food and its ability to heal, and in The Oz Family Kitchen they will, for the first time, share their knowledge, passion and recipes.
This healthy eating cookbook has more than 100 simple, delicious recipes from the Oz Family collection, including pastas, soups, sandwiches, entrees, smoothies, and desserts, such as Mehmet's favorite birthday “Almost German Chocolate Cake", Daphne's special " Glazed Acorn Squash with Savory Seeds,”, and the Oz family’s “Coconut-Crusted Chicken". The book offers helpful advice on cooking healthy meals for the whole family, pantry stocking, and smart shopping, as well as nutrition tips and health insights from Dr. Oz. Whether you are looking to eat healthier, more delicious meal, or simply get a glimpse into the Oz family lifestyle, The Oz Family Kitchen is an essential tool you’re looking for.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Readers curious to know what TV star Mehmet Oz and his family eat will appreciate these appealing and wholesome recipes for meals, snacks, desserts, and drinks. The recipes themselves are the work of author Oz, a bestselling writer and television producer who often cohosts The Dr. Oz Show; her husband, the eponymous Dr. Oz, contributes a foreword and nutritional information throughout, explaining the benefits of black pepper and why yogurt is gut friendly. The couple and their children are featured in family photographs and anecdotes about recipes. The author is clear that this is not a diet book but one that "supports a healthy lifestyle," and there's no preachy advice, just helpful and inspiring recipes for meals. Her clever menu planning for her family of vegetarians, flexitarians, pescetarians, and gluten avoiders often consists of add-ins for the mainly plant-based recipes, such as the Wagababy Pot with udon and Asian vegetables. Strong flavors replace fat in the grilled summer squash and onion sandwich with green chile mayonnaise, and the poached eggs on garlic toast with truffle oil and jalape o. Readers probably won't be surprised to find out the Oz family "never tires of kale," but they can delight in this guide to eating food that's both wholesome and delicious.
