Ingrid Hoffmann, Latin D’Lite: Delicious Latin Recipes with a Healthy Twist

Hoffmann re-imagines your favorite Latin American dishes to offer healthy alternatives that are still full of bold flavors. Featuring more than 150 classic Latin recipes, Hoffmann adds her signature touch, introducing readers to healthy ingredient substitutions that are light and fresh in a few simple steps. The key to making the lifestyle change to healthy eating is using the right seasonings and ingredients that will give your food the flavors you want.  An example of this is substituting mayonnaise in a coleslaw to lime juice or baking codfish balls instead of frying them.

Whether you’re craving tacos or tostones, Hoffmann delivers dishes that’s sure to please.  She still includes an indulgent recipe to allow for occasional splurges while maintaining these healthy changes.

Ingrid Hoffmann is an international food and television personality, restauranteur, and host of Cooking Channel’s Simply Delicioso and Univision’s Delicioso. Latin d’lite is a fully illustrated, easy-to-follow cookbook that offers a healthy spin on modern Latin cuisine.  If you don’t win and interested in buying her book, click here! 

She’s a serious food lover who lives in Miami and I’ve had the honor of meeting her on several occasions through a foodies group and earlier this year, she spoke at the Women’s Success Summit to coincide with the launch of her latest cookbook, Latin d’lite!  I loved hearing how she started from scratch against all odds, so inspiring.

I can’t wait to experiment with her healthy Latin dishes in my wok and put my personal spin on them. I see Pork and Chicken Paella, p.163 which woks perfectly, I’ve made many paellas in my day!  Or Basque Style Chicken p.132 woking really well, umm.  Visit her site for all the other great stuff she does, always reinventing.

You can catch Ingrid on Saturday and Sunday at the Miami Book Fair, here’s schedule!

Manuel Villacorta, Peruvian Power Foods: 18 Superfoods, 101 Recipes and Anti-Aging Secrets from the Amazon to the Andes

Villacorta traveled to his native Peru and spoke with locals from across the country to learn about the incredible health and lifestyle benefits of “superfoods” native to the Amazonian jungles and the Andinian valleys and highlands. He returns with over 100 recipes, each with less than 6 steps, introducing all 18 incredible edible superfoods in healthy and hearty dishes one can easily prepare at home. Villacorta makes eating healthy an adventure, enlightening foodies and home cooks to experiment with fruits like the pichuberry, rich in vitamins and antioxidants, and the camu camu, which packs more than 60 times the vitamin C in your average orange. Watch his promo video below!

I picked this book to giveaway because I know so many of us struggle with trying to be healthy and not knowing how to go about doing it that still satisfies our cravings and bad habits.  I share Villacorta’s wonderful philosophy on his site, Eating Free, go check it out!  If you don’t win his book, you can buy here!

Villacorta, MS, RD, is a dietician, author, and the founder of Eating Free, an international weight management and wellness program. Born and raised in Peru, Villacorta lives in San Francisco and contributes to the Huffington Post health blog, Univision, and Fox News Latino.
