Book description
Emma Myles is no stranger to diet culture; as an actress and a longtime resident of Los Angeles, she's been surrounded by toxic food behavior for a long time. With this book, she's knocking all of that down. She wants to face the facts and phobias that so many people are scared to admit--both to themselves, and about the world. This powerful half self-help book, half-cookbook will have you looking at things you thought were normal with new eyes, know when to spot toxic eating behavior (like skipping breakfast to save calories), and cultivate a loving relationship with food. Emma implores readers to make what society deems as 'reward comfort foods' like Spaghetti & Meatballs or Grilled Cheese Egg 'n a Hole whenever they want. She banishes ideas like 'I was bad today; I should have a salad' with kick-ass, feel-good recipes like Spicy Tuna Tartare, Baked Feta with Figs and Hot Maple Honey Butter, and (if you insist on salading) something stacked like the Blair Waldorf Cobb with Maple Balsamic. She even encourages readers to tap into their inner child and eat fun foods like Strawberry Pop Tarts and Chocolate Chip Mickey Mouse Pancakes. These recipes--alongside Emma's poignant personal anecdotes--is what makes this cookbook a powerhouse for anyone looking to seal the coffin on diet culture and cook nourishing, tasty meals.
