As with all of my cookbooks, Mediterranean Diet 101 was written to make the journey to better health feel achievable and stress-free. I’ve been listening closely to the questions, feedback, and struggles shared by so many of you, and I noticed a common theme: it’s not a lack of desire or knowledge about healthy eating, but the challenge of navigating busy lives that often leads to feelings of overwhelm in the kitchen. And that’s exactly where this book comes in.

Through years of experience, I’ve helped people simplify their approach to cooking, meal planning, and grocery shopping. The Mediterranean way of eating, with its focus on fresh ingredients and easy-to-follow recipes, is the perfect solution for those of us looking for a healthier, more sustainable diet without all the stress.

Why is this so important? Because life is hectic. Many of us feel like we’re constantly juggling responsibilities, and with everything that’s going on in the world from cost-of-living struggles to the pressures of family life it’s easy to put healthy eating on the back burner. But deep down, we all know how essential it is for our health, energy, and wellbeing.

In Mediterranean Diet 101, I’ve taken the guesswork out of this journey. With over 150 simple, vibrant recipes, a 30-day meal plan, and grocery lists that make shopping easier, this book is designed to help you transform your eating habits without adding extra stress. You’ll discover how easy it can be to nourish your body with delicious meals, improve your digestion, and find more energy all while embracing the joys of Mediterranean cuisine.

This isn’t just about following a diet; it’s about building lasting habits that help you thrive. One step at a time, Mediterranean Diet 101 will help you shift from feeling overwhelmed to feeling energized and in control of your health.
