Thank u !!!!
Can't help much with the recipes as all mine have to come out of a cookery book, but I can tell you as a doctor that the Mediterranean diet is a good thing to follow. It has been shown to reduce cardiovascular disease more than other diets, as well as being tasty - lots of fresh tomatoes, fish, and olive oil as opposed to butter. My advice is to buy a recipe book and start experimenting!
