Book Festival: Ellie Krieger
Tuesday, May 06, 2008
For those of you interested in low-fat cooking and natural foods, don’t miss Food Network celebu-chef Ellie Krieger‘s appearance at the upcoming Philadelphia Book Festival! Krieger will talk at noon on May 17 at the Skyline Salon.
Healthy eating shouldn’t hurt, argues Food Network star and registered dietician Ellie Krieger. A proponent of good, fresh food prepared simply but deliciously, Krieger eschews the use of supposed “healthy” non-fat food substitutes, because when the fat goes out, the additives go in. The 200 recipes collected in The Food You Crave celebrate natural foods–including butter!–in moderate amounts as the keystone of a healthy lifestyle.
The Philadelphia Book Festival is a free event that runs the weekend of May 17 and May 18. In addition to a long list of author readings, a Book Fair is held with more than 70 literary exhibitors.
