I’m Hot You’re Hot caters to the passionate romantic and gourmet in you. Have you ever heard of a romantic whole foods recipe book where aphrodisiacs flirt with the cook, or where libidos out to lunch get rescued? I’m Hot You’re Hot is a twelve month whole foods recipe book with romantic and sensual overtones. It includes love quotes, kitchen and bedroom poetry, and love banquets with whole foods participants that are in season. It also contains recommended wine and food pairings, beer and food pairings and suggested cut flower arrangements to enhance the beauty of your table setting.
This cookbook contains 214 pages, including a comprehensive glossary and index, filled with gratifying menus. What add life to the menus are the headers for each recipe. The information they contain are a combination of nutrients, energy, history, folklore, and aphrodisiac qualities of each food culminating with a sensual persuasion. Also, each menu is designed for two, primarily including recipes for vegans, vegetarians and macrobiotics and not excluding the adventurous mainstream couple daring to use whole foods appetizers to desserts as side dishes. If you are looking for a playful recipe book for lovers who enjoy the sensuality of eating healthy with desirable and satisfying ingredients and easy preparations, then this is the book for you.

Having taught macrobiotic cooking for more than 20 years, it's not a subject most people consider sexy...until now. 'I'm Hot, You’re Hot' changes our perception of this brilliant lifestyle and takes it to new heights, laying bare the idea that food...real food...is the key element in our lives...and romances. Fun, entertaining and filled with delicious seasonal recipes, this is a fabulous book for putting some real sizzle in your sauté pan.

When
my friend told me about this book I was skeptical. After all, I didn't think I
was "into" macrobiotics and that basically was due to my ignorance on
the subject. The beautiful cover and enticing title drew me in and to my surprise;
macrobiotics is naturally part of the diet of those who aspire to eat healthy every
day, or almost every day! The recipes are easy to prepare and delicious. What
makes this book unique is the combination of good food, wine and beer
selections, flowers, folklore and above all "passion".
You won’t be disappointed!!
Format: Kindle Edition
Love
the cover which is just a preview of things to come. The recipes are easy to
follow and my partner and I had fun making them together. We thoroughly enjoyed
the food and found, by the time we made it through a delicious seven course
meal, we were stuffed! Once the food settled....well, that's another story...
The author manages to turn cooking into a romantic venture for two! Delightful!
And, if the food doesn't turn you on, read her poetry! That'll give your
imagination a boost for sure!
Format: Paperback

This is much more than a cookbook. What you will get out of this book, in addition to many delicious whole foods plant-based recipes is an education. Divided into 12 monthly sections, Loretta includes her playful poetry, famous romantic quotes, beer/wine pairings and information about food nutrition and even history that also make this a great book to sit down and read when you're not in the kitchen! The recipes are fresh takes on many classic macrobiotic and contemporary recipes that are easy to prepare, satisfying, and above all else, HEALTHY. They are all indexed in the back, just in case you want to mix and match, and there is also an extensive glossary. Plus, did I mention the food you will cook is delicious?

Loretta is an amazing person. I have had the pleasure and honor or knowing Loretta since childhood and we are very good friends. I have read Loretta's cookbook and true to Loretta's style, I know the dedication and research that she put into developing recipes with love, fun and passion. Loretta is a very selfless, committed person and seeks pleasure in helping others as depicted in her recipes. I can truly hear her laughter when she designed these recipes. Not only is the food good but she made the recipes joyous to cook and takes you to another realm. Loretta brought a new meaning to food. Mangia!!
