More About This Book

Overview

In 1977 Joe Piscatella received the news no one ever wants to hear -- he had heart disease and needed coronary bypass surgery. He was 32 years old and his doctors predicted that he would probably not live to see his two young children graduate from high school. It's been 26 years since Joe's heart surgery. This year he and his wife, Bernie, celebrated by hiking on Mt. Rainier. Joe says today: "I could not have climbed from an operating table to a mountain top without changing my dietary lifestyle. And I could not have changed my dietary lifestyle without the recipes in this book." By learning how to eat right, day in and day out, at parties, over holidays and at every occasion imaginable, Joe Piscatella is living proof that good food and good health go together.

This cookbook offers 700 of his wife Bernie's favorite quick-to-fix, delicious recipes that focus on what heart patients and their families can eat, not what must be avoided. Bernie knows from experience that if the food isn't tasty and appealing, it will be a hard sell to your family, no matter what the health consequences. From pancakes to grilled hamburgers and strawberry shortcake, each recipe has been tested countless times at the family dinner table. By modifying favorite family recipes and stripping out unhealthy ingredients, the original flavor and appeal are maintained. Based on guidelines from the American Heart Association, each recipe includes nutritional breakdowns, and the 1000-plus-entry fat-gram counter for common foods makes healthy substitutions a breeze.

If you are one of the millions of Americans with high cholesterol and heart disease, or one of their family members; don't despair. Current science tells us that eating a healthy, balanced diet can prevent, stabilize and even reverse heart disease. Bernie's recipes show you how to do it with taste, style and convenience. The recipes in this cookbook make the right choices simple and satisfying.
