The Healthy Italian: Cooking For the Love of Food and Family

The Healthy Italian is more than just a cookbook. What makes it extra special — besides the fact that it's packed with delicious authentic Italian recipes made healthy, pages and pages of mouth-watering photography and tons of tips to get meals on the table easier — is that this project is a personal passion. Growing up Italian, food has always been at the epicentre of author Fina Scroppo's life. Today, as a busy mom and passionate home cook, she leans on what she knows best — Italian food. But the challenge there has been to cook Italian healthfully without compromising taste, fit it into her day and feel good about serving those meals to her family. After more than two decades working as an editor and writer, Fina is merging her vast journalism experience with her love of Italian food and cooking. She is no stranger to successful bestselling books. Fina has also been a book editor for many book titles, including the blockbusters The Looney spoons Collection and Eat, Shrink & Be Merry! by Janet and Greta Podleski, as well as The Wealthy Barber Returns by David Chilton. With The Healthy Italian, it has never been easier to enjoy a nutritious, mouth-watering meal with family. Fina has paid particular attention to convenience in every recipe but, more importantly, she focuses on great taste — her family wouldn't have it any other way! After all, it's about cooking for the love of food and family.
