Author of CLEAN FOOD cookbook to do a chef demonstration and book signing of her new book CLEAN START

Terry Walters, author of the award-winning CLEAN FOOD cookbook, will be at Chicago French Market from noon to 1 p.m. Friday, Feb. 18 to demonstrate three healthy recipes from her new cookbook, CLEAN START, followed by a book signing. Her philosophy of eating locally grown, seasonal and fresh food mirrors the efforts of the Chicago French Market and its nearly 30 artisan vendors.

“CLEAN START is about enjoying healthy, delicious, clean food every day,” says Walters. “It’s my goal to empower people and help them make healthy choices that are simple, nutritious and delicious. There’s not a better venue to spread the word about healthy living than the Chicago French Market.”

Walters will prepare three of the 100 recipes in her new book, all of which are vegan and gluten-free: Shallot Fig Spread, Red Lentil Soup with turnip and parsley and Hot Spiced Coconut Milk. Following the short cooking demonstration, Walters will be available for a book signing of CLEAN START, available for purchase for $25.
