"Traditionally,
travel and health haven't always been cozy partners.
But, California Healthy shows that they
certainly can be. This remarkable comprehensive and
easy-to-use guide to food, fitness, and the Golden State
gives a whole new meaning to "eat and run"." "I tried two of
Chef Bruce Biron's recipes: the Artichoke, Celery Root,
Pistachio and Potato Gratin and the Tuxedo Chocolate
Apricots. The gratin was very easy to make and while I
normally do not like celery, I really enjoyed this healthy
vegetarian mixture. The chocolate apricots were also
very easy to make and worked well for a last minute dessert,
light and not too sweet. Thanks to the author for
providing Chef Biron's practical recipes and for creating
such a colorful book full of great information and tips
based on real experiences to have a healthy life style in
California. "In what I felt to be a truly amazing compilation of foods, restaurants, wine, and recipes, Ms. Hamilton shows us the best of what Southern California has to offer. Filled with photos, maps, driving and walking directions, and a handy monthly calendar of local celebrations, this resource will be invaluable for your next culinary adventure. With additional golden tidbits of information and recipes from the esteemed Executive Chef, Bruce Biron, coupled with advice on exercise and diet from certified exercise physiologist Janel Willette, you will be able to start yourself on a new healthy track. Focusing on locally grown products, of both inland and coastal counties, plus the annual list of food, wine, and walk events, from Pismo Beach's Clam Festival, to walking a lost trail in east San Diego County, this must-have guide will help you explore the best in California dining and lifestyle. This resource
book was a treat to experience. Not only was I
thrilled that the contents were exceptional and beyond what
I had ever expected, I had a chance to try out a few of the
recipes which amazingly worked and were delicious! I
have to applaud Ms. Hamilton and her contributors for
compiling such a useful guide; I can only hope that their
next mission will be a guide book focusing on Northern
California!" "This is a
must-have book when you live or travel in California.
Patricia really found the coolest health-oriented people and
places in each town - and joyously takes you to them!" "It's about time
someone came up with practical guide for where to find the
best healthy foods, outdoor activities, and restaurants that
feature nutritious cuisine... Whether you are traveling or
staying close to home, Patricia Hamilton points the way to
finding farmers' markets, food festivals, and markets that
offer the finest in fresh ingredients for healthy eating.
This comprehensive guide also features local attractions,
walks, and restaurants, plus Stanford Executive Chef, Bruce
Biron's delicious, nutritious recipes that will liven up any
table at mealtime." "A must-have book
for anyone who cares about good, healthy living; great for
families." "Congratulations
on your book what a marvelous idea for a travel guide.
So many of us are into healthy dining and exercise, and
you've organized it all so well." "Nice job!
Smooth presentation, professional." "I love the book!
I've never seen anything exactly like it, the blend of
attractions, farmers' markets (that are rarely highlighted
in such a resource) and recipes (also, a new concept to me).
I think you've created an expansive resource that will be
useful to people in exploring and discovering the resources
in their own area, as well as any part of California that
they travel to."
