This is for you guys who have read through Gwyneth‘s first cookbook countless times, and for those of you who have already cooked every recipe in that thing. This is for you guys who have read every single GOOP newsletter, looking for the little pearls of wisdom that only Gwyneth* can gift to you. Treasure it, friends.
The book is called It’s All Good: Delicious, Easy Recipes That Will Make You Look Good and Feel Great. It won’t be released until April, but here’s the description:
Gwyneth Paltrow, Academy-Award winning actress and bestselling cookbook author, returns with recipes for the foods she eats when she wants to lose weight, look good, and feel more energetic.
Last spring, after a particularly grueling schedule and lapse of overindulgence, Gwyneth Paltrow was feeling fatigued and faint. A visit to her doctor revealed that she was anemic, vitamin D deficient, and that her stress levels were sky high. He prescribed an elimination diet to clear out her system and help her body heal. But this meant no coffee, no alcohol, no dairy, no eggs, no sugar, no shellfish, no deep-water fish, no wheat, no meat, no soy, nothing processed at all!
An avid foodie, Paltrow was concerned that so many restrictions would make mealtime boring, so, together with Julia Turshen, she compiled a collection of 185 delicious, easy recipes that followed her doctor’s guidelines. And it worked! After changing her diet, Paltrow healed totally, felt more energetic and looked great. Now, in IT’S ALL GOOD, she shares the go-to dishes that have become the baseline for the restorative diet she turns to whenever she feels she needs it. Recipes include: Huevos Rancheros, Hummus Tartine with Scallion-Mint Pesto, Salmon Burgers with Pickled Ginger, even Power Brownies, Banana “Ice Cream,” and more!
So get psyched, everybody. Doesn’t that “ice cream” sound delicious? Get them palates ready for some salmon burgers, and get them brains ready for some knowledge, ’cause April isn’t that far away!
*My boyfriend actually calls her Gwynnie Pig, like guinea pig only different. He does this because he likes to pretend that she is the best because I know that she is the worst.
I have not heard of the test doctors can run to find your “stress level is sky high.” Is it a blood test? Or maybe they grab something and ask you to cough.
Doctors are sneaky. They ask questions and make evaluations which is perfect since they rarely examine patients these days. They just write a scrip based on less than 3 minutes with a patient. Of course, Gwyn has the best of everything – like the Queen.
I bet that banana ‘ice cream’ is just blended, frozen bananas. Like she invented that??
Hey don’t hate on salmon burgers. My local supermarket sells them and they’re really nice.
