Vegetarian Star

Christina Pirello was one of the featured celebrity chefs at the 2010 Sun Wine Fest in Connecticut.

The whole foods vegan chef’s presence help offset the less veggie dishes by other chefs like Todd English, Michael Ginor and Ben Ford.

Ten years ago when Pirello wrote her first cookbook 10 years ago, Cooking the Whole Foods Way, there may not have been room at the chef’s exhibit for an organic, vegan chef like herself.

“Now everyone’s cooking with whole grains — I feel extremely vindicated,” she said told the Herald News. “It’s kind of cool to open a food and wine demonstration cooking with miso and tofu.”

“I’m taking vegan cuisine up a notch; paired with a lovely wine it allows us to be a part of the party.”

When pairing a wine with vegan food at home, don’t forget to check it against the vegan alcohol list.

If you need to brush up on your veggie cooking skills, chef Christina Pirello is offering several classes that give veg love in the city of brotherly love.

The same chef who brought you better sex tips offers three different culinary programs in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in the United States: demonstration classes, a three-day Intensive Study Program and a six-month Cooking and Integrative Health Studies Program.

The classes cover topics such as kitchen utensils and menu planning to complete lifestyle assessments to help students make healthy decisions away from the dinner table.

Pirello’s book, Cooking The Whole Foods Way, was recently chosen as one of the top 5 cookbooks of the decade by the Physicians Committee For Responsible Medicine.

Skinny Bitch In the Kitch

The Physicians Committee For Responsible Medicine has named Rory Freedman and Kim Barnouin‘s Skinny Bitch In The Kitch one of five best cookbooks of the decade.

From a press release:

“Skinny Bitch in the Kitch provides healthy vegan recipes that actually taste good, from Bitchtastic Brownies to dairy-less Fettuccini Alfredo.”

It’s those Bitchtastic Brownies that made Bitch in the Kitch a New York Times Bestseller.

As expected Alicia Silverstone‘s The Kind Diet made the cut, as well as The Conscious Cook by Tal Ronnen, The Engine 2 Diet by Rip Esselstyn and Cooking the Whole Foods Way by Christina Pirello.
