Best Selling Egyptian Born Author Mareya Ibrahim’s New Eat Like You Give a Fork
(Gerry Furth-Sides)Mareya Ibrahim, award-winning inventor, nutritionist, and the signature chef and meal plan designer for the bestselling diet book, The Daniel Plan, has written her own cookbook, EAT LIKE YOU GIVE A FORK: The Real dish on Eating to Thrive. According to the lively Mareya, no one should do anything that starts with “die.”
This lithe author, who obviously loves food from how she talks and writes about it, invites readers to escape the dreaded diet mentality with a more positive approach to healthy eating, as she has done. Mareya encourages readers to remake their kitchens, taste buds, bodies, and energy levels with honesty in her book. There are 80 easy-to-understand “forking delicious” recipes that support eight essential nutritional strategies. Included are: Zucchini Noodles with Romesco Sauce, Low-Sodium Umami Bone Broth, You Glow Smoothie, No-Bake Oatmeal Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies.
Mareya’s fun and holistic approach to food is aimed at having readers both laugh and get serious about their cooking at the same time. The eight essential strategies she bases her recipes on in EAT LIKE YOU GIVE A FORK: The Real dish on Eating to Thrive are: Reset Your Taste Buds, Stock Your Real Kitchen, Get Up on Greens, Take a Vegan Fast Break, Go Gluten-Free Super Grains, Fill in with Good Fat, Become Real Dense, and Live the 90/10 Rule.
With over 25 years experience in the food industry, and as the host of the popular Facebook Live show The Real Dish, as well as the podcast Recipes For Your Best Life, Mareya’s knowledgeable guidance and great palate make readers rethink the word, “diet.” As far as I’m concerned, just looking at her makes me want to eat whatever it is that she is eating!
