The Garlic for Life Cookbook

Linda Ferrari

Garlic — So Good, and So Good for You!


Garlic has long been known for its healing qualities, mainly its effect on the treatment and prevention of numerous diseases. However, the health benefits of this cholesterol-lowering food have typically been lost in the fat- and butter-laden garlic recipes that are usually prepared. In this healthful guide, lowfat cooking instructor Linda Ferrari liberates garlic from this shackle, offering over 125 lowfat, delicious recipes that make use of garlic's tantalizing taste and many healing properties.

Enjoy such dishes as:

  • Chicken Smothered in Garlic
  • Grilled Corn on the Cob
  • Potato Garlic Soup
  • Focaccia
  • Chicken Pasta with Plum Wine
  • Jill's Spicy Chili
  • Chicken and Beans in Endive
  • Lemon-Grilled Cornish Hens
  • Poached Salmon Steaks
  • Red and Yellow Pepper Soup
  • Grilled Orange Roughy in Orange Sauce
  • Pork Leg Roast
  • Sweet and Spicy Potatoes
  • Garlic Sticks
And since the healing properties of garlic work best in its raw form, Ferrari presents many recipes that incorporate tasty uses of raw garlic. Each recipe in this healthful guide also includes a complete nutritional breakdown with information on fat content, cholesterol, carbohydrates, calories, protein, and fiber.
