Pea Soup

Beth Spencer's "Pea Soup: Recipes for Body, Mind, and Spirit from a 'Kitchen Table Gourmet,'" is a veritable feast of family favorite recipes-recipes full of life and love, recipes to wrap your mouth around and savor, recipes for foods that for years Beth thought she couldn't eat as part of everyday meals-normal foods using normal ingredients, foods that were on her "forbidden food" list-foods that she's happily invited back into her daily life. While writing "Pea Soup," Beth learned how to be a "competent eater"...and learned to accept her body at its "natural" weight, after over 40 years of yo-yo dieting and disordered eating. From appetizers to desserts and everything in between, "Pea Soup," fairly brims with wonderful, wholesome recipes-quick and easy recipes for when you're pressed for time, as well as classic recipes that require a little more time (and flour) on the hands, yet yield delicious and joyous results. Bon Appetit!
