This Saturday it’s all about “Age-Defying Dishes of the World”, nearly 300 Recipes that Feature the Healthiest Foods from around the World

Chef and author Grace O has traveled the world in search of delicious, good-for-you foods. Her passion for discovering food treasures from the Blue Zones and elsewhere, where people live longer, healthier lives, is the driving force behind FoodTrients.com and her new cookbook, Age-Defying Dishes of the World.

In her third cookbook, Grace O delivers all the hallmarks of her two previous award-winning cookbooks, and more. In addition to over 200 easy-to-make recipes using everyday favorites, exotic ingredients, and superfoods from around the world, Age-Defying Dishes of the World includes healthy resources, helpful guides, and tips for improving your lifespan and “health-span.”

Grace O’s global approach to her age-fighting recipes ramps up the flavor profiles of each dish to entice food lovers everywhere. She takes classic recipes and gives them international twists with a few simple steps, creating very interesting meals. For example, people will love her global take on chicken soup with recipes developed with Chinese, French, Greek, Middle Eastern, Mexican, and Indian variations. She does the same thing with basic sauces, pesto, main dishes, pastas, and bowls, and includes recipes with African, Southeast Asian, Latin American, Polynesian, Scandinavian, European, and Australian ingredients.

The book also features guides to key herbs and spices from around the globe, and to the top 50 foods for longevity, healthy sweeteners, cooking oils, ancient grains, and more. Get a copy NOW!

All proceeds from Age-Defying Dishes of the World will be donated to the Grace O Foundation, which supports educating the public about nutrition, working with other food-based non-profits, and participating in research that explores food and the diseases of aging.

Grace O’s blog, Age Gracefully, appears weekly on FoodTrients.com. She is also a contributor to Scrubs-Mag.com, the award-winning lifestyle nursing magazine and website, and is a bi-monthly columnist for the Asian Journal newspaper. She was recently knighted by Pope Francis for her community service. Dame Grace shares this honor with such great luminaries as G.K. Chesterton, Bob and Dolores Hope, and Eunice Kennedy Shriver. Her three cookbooks are all available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble.

Later in the show I’ll be talking to Janice Zerby about Holiday Tables. Each year, the galleries of Mark Arts are transformed with exquisite tablescapes, sure to give attendees ideas for the upcoming holiday season.  Dining tables of all shapes and sizes are decorated by individuals, nonprofit organizations and businesses showcasing home entertaining ideas. Designing Women also offers a popular boutique in conjunction with the event, as well as Girls’ Night Out, ARTrageous Party and a Holiday Tea.

Good Life Guy’s Wine of the Week:
2019 Catena, Appellation San Carlos Cabernet Franc
Family vintners for over 100 years, the Catena’s are recognized for their pioneering role in high-altitude viticulture in Argentina. This Cabernet Franc is sourced from the family´s historic vineyards in San Carlos. Here, the sandy-loam soils and mountainous climate yield a wine with concentrated ripe red berries, a touch of eucalyptus and black pepper, robust tannins and smooth lengthy finish. 100% Cabernet Franc. ABV13.5%

Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate 93/100
The incredible 2019 Appellation San Carlos Cabernet Franc is super elegant, fresh, varietal, nuanced and complex. A wine like this often costs more money than the price point of the appellation range, but it feels like a bargain anyway. This is an updated version of the 2018, with precision and symmetry. It’s vibrant and lively, velvety and focused.
