Step into Kirsty Strowger’s eighth recipe book—a sun-drenched celebration of the Mediterranean’s most enduring flavours and life-giving wisdom. Inspired by the coastal kitchens of Greece, Italy, and Spain, this isn’t just a recipe collection—it’s a lifestyle invitation.

In this beautifully curated guide, Kirsty explores how the Mediterranean diet supports a long, vibrant life backed by decades of research and shaped by real-world results. From its heart-protective ingredients to its joyful, flexible approach to eating, this diet continues to top the list for health-conscious women around the world.

“With its fresh ingredients, simple meals, and emphasis on balance, the Mediterranean diet is as much about how you eat as what you eat.”

Taste of History

The Mediterranean diet traces its roots back thousands of years, developed by cultures along the Mediterranean Sea who prized fresh produce, olive oil, legumes, and seafood. Meals were shared, savoured slowly, and built on a foundation of balance.

In the 1950s, the Seven Countries Study spotlighted the Mediterranean way of eating—proving that people in places like Crete lived longer and had dramatically lower rates of heart disease than their Western peers. What made the difference? Real food. Community. Simplicity. And a little red wine.

The Science Behind the Plate

Today, the Mediterranean diet is a gold standard in nutritional science. Studies continue to show it reduces inflammation, supports brain and heart health, lowers cholesterol, and improves weight management.

At the core of this lifestyle is a powerful mix of:

  • Colourful fruits and vegetables

  • Olive oil rich in antioxidants and polyphenols

  • Legumes and whole grains

  • Lean proteins like fish, eggs, and yogurt

  • A splash of red wine, enjoyed with intention

Even better? It’s not restrictive. It’s sustainable, enjoyable, and completely realistic for modern life.

A Recipe for Life

This ebook brings the Mediterranean to your kitchen where rustic risottos, herby Greek salads, and fragrant Spanish paellas become part of your everyday rhythm.

Whether you’re new to clean eating or looking for delicious hormone-friendly meals, these recipes are here to nourish your body and spark your joy. It’s proof that good health doesn’t require perfection just real food, enjoyed with love.
