Naturally Vegetarian: Recipes and Stories from My Italian Family Farm: A Cookbook

Naturally Vegetarian: Recipes & Stories from My Italian Family Farm by Valentina Solfrini is a celebration of Italy's colours, smells, and flavours and will show readers a new side to the traditional Italian kitchen. Drawing upon the traditions of her Italian farming family, the author shares vegetarian recipes that use fresh, local, seasonal ingredients. As the daughter of an Italian farming family, Solfrini grew up eating fresh, local, seasonal foods, but when she moved to New York City to study design, she quickly felt the damaging effects that came with eating a new diet. Returning to Italy, she embraced the seasonal, vegetable‑friendly foods and, after eliminating meat from her diet, felt better than ever.
