Renée Loux has written an exquisite
book. She gives us recipes
for sumptuous dishes made
from a balance of wholesome
ingredients. But she also
gives us something even more
valuable and enduring: a new
way of thinking about food
and how it impacts our lives.
Does it taste good or is it
good for me? Well, both. Renée
describes for us how delicious
food can be healthy food—healthy
for our bodies, healthy for
the environment, and healthy
for our children. These
are foods that taste good
and make you feel good and
look good. Renée brings
to the table the unbounded
joy of someone in love with
life and good health.
She recognizes that delicious
food is a major part of living
a balanced life.….In
this book, Renée brings
to us just such an extraordinarily
satisfying approach to food
and to life. Her passionate
and balanced approach is at
once sensually gratifying
and thoroughly wholesome.
And, oh yes, don't miss the
chocolate mousse.
