Ian Thorpe: Cook For Your Life

In his first cookbook, Ian Thorpe shares the recipes that keep him fit, as well as his philosophy on diet gathered from nutrition experts throughout his years of sporting success. As a competitive swimmer, he has learned that he can't just eat anything and achieve elite level success—healthy eating is something that he has always to keep in mind to perform at his peak. A lifetime love of cooking teamed with a refusal to give up the flavors of his favorite meals led him to develop this plan that allows him to eat the delicious foods he loves and to maintain a healthy, strong body. The recipes he shares here include Roasted Pumpkin and Hazelnut Salad, Braised Celery Hearts with Bacon, Green Chicken Curry, and Mango and Berry Soup.
