Synopsis

The National Cancer Institute, nutritionists, and scientists concur: the colors of foods have definite health-promoting virtues. Using this knowledge, celebrated artist Mindy Weisel teamed up with her nutritionist and esthetician daughters to offer a delicious seven-day diet and beauty plan based on one color a day---White, Red, Green, Orange, Purple, Yellow, and Rainbow. On the Red Day, for instance, choose from Red Italian Tomato Casserole, Red Day Tuna-Apple Salad, and Baked Chicken in Tomato Basil Sauce, and end your day exfoliating with cranberry enzymes and washing with rose petal water. Complete with the 7-Day Color Diet Plan, a maintenance plan, more than 100 recipes, and seven days of colorful beauty treatments and tips, "The 7 Day Color Diet" is a treat for your mind, your body, and your eye.

Review

"New Yorker Carolyn Miller, 32, a registered dietician. The fat-melting powers of extra fruits and vegetables helped her shed 37 pounds. ‘It’s foolproof – you will lose weight,’ says Miller, co-author of The 7-Day Color Diet." (Woman’s World)

Chicken Paprikash recipe excerpted "Georgetown artist Mindy Weisel also preserves her mother's old world traditions, handing them down to her three daughters to nourish their own families....For the Jewish holidays, she cooks Lili's favorite Hungarian dishes, chicken paprikash and veal goulash. Like Hensley Vincent, Weisel has published a cookbook, ‘The 7-Day Color Diet,’ including perhaps the most famous Hungarian chicken recipe....This recipe is adapted from Mindy Weisel's mother, Lili Deutsch, who loved making it on Hanukkah because it reminded her of home in Hungary, (in Yiddish it was in ‘der hym’."
