Two Cookbooks, One Idea: Eat Less Meat
Mark Bittman of The New York Times introduces his new cookbook at University Book Store.
Mark Bittman is swinging through with a new tome in tow, The Food Matters Cookbook: Lose Weight and Heal the Planet with More Than 500 Recipes, which extols the benefits of a plant-centric diet. The Man tells Tan Vinh of The Seattle Times the idea isn’t to completely cut out meat, just to eat it with more discretion—not only for personal reasons, but also for the health of the environment.
Bittman is scheduled to read from and sign Food Matters Thursday at the U District University Book Store starting at 7pm.
On a more local note, trendsetter Kim O’Donnel will be at Elliott Bay Books at 5pm. O’Donnel has been hitting the nationwide circuit with Meat Lover’s Meatless Cookbook and now brings her 52 animal-free recipes to hometown Seattle.
Having second thoughts about that egg-and-bacon breakfast? Ditto.
