Scientifically backed by decades of peer-reviewed research, the Mediterranean diet is a rigorously tested diet that can lower your risk of developing chronic diseases including diabetes, stroke, heart disease, fatty liver, some cancers, depression and dementia.

In recent years, the Mediterranean diet has grown in popularity, not just because of its undeniable health benefits, but also because of its focus on fresh, seasonal produce: a vital array of plant-based ingredients, moderate portions of fish and eggs, fermented dairy products, and a small amount of meat. Now Australia's leading expert on the Mediterranean diet, Dr Catherine Itsiopoulos, and her daughter, Vivienne Koutsis, show us how the traditional diet can be adapted so that everyone can enjoy its plentiful benefits.

With big flavours and little fuss, these delicious recipes have all been created with modern-day lifestyles in mind, whether you are eating less meat for ethical or environmental concerns, you're avoiding gluten or dairy, or you want to enjoy a classic dish without the traditional preparation time.
