Thank you Sharsheret @sharsheretofficial and Symone Sass (CA Support Program Coordinator) for this free book as part of your free breast cancer resources!
“The Back in the Swing Cookbook” by Barbara C. Unell and Judith Fertig ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Genre: Specialized Cookbook
When I was diagnosed with DCIS breast cancer, Sharsheret supported me with a long conversation with Symone Sass, CA Support Program Coordinator, and a host of individualized resources. This lovely cookbook was one of the resources- and it is way, way more than just recipes.
Who can resist a cookbook? Not me! Even if you’re not much of a cook, just reading the recipes triggers ideas about enjoying food. This cookbook is full of recipes that integrate breast cancer-specific nutrition into delicious recipes. I guarantee recipes will appeal to everyone, no matter your health status. The fact that they are nutritionally sound is a big bonus!
I’m a quick and simple-only cook. Here are 4 of my favorite short and easy recipes from this book:
⭐️Brown Sugar & Walnut Meringues with Fresh Strawberries
⭐️Mexican Fruit Salad with Honey-Lime Dressing
⭐️Mushroom and Broccoli Risotto
⭐️Shrimp Fra Diavolo
The yummy recipes in this cookbook focus on lowering inflammation markers, normalizing insulin levels, and supporting immune function. The authors also include movement goals, weight management goals, conversions/measurements, and menu planning ideas. AND, they put the dessert recipes first! That’s my kind of cookbook! If you have been diagnosed with breast cancer, or know someone who has, or if you are a survivor, reach out to Sharsheret. Their mission is to help you! www.sharsheret.com IG: @sharsheretofficial FB: Sharsheret.org “To get back in the swing of life physically, emotionally, and spiritually for the rest of her life.” It’s 5 stars from me🌵📚💁🏼♀️🎀
