About this Event
Curated Cuisine is a monthly series examining all things edible, from the chefs cooking the food to the writers reviewing the recipes. Meet the people shaping the food industry, both local and national and enjoy a post-show bite inspired by the conversation.
Join New York Times bestselling author and shredhappens creator Arash Hashemi for a conversation about his new cookbook, “shredhappens: High Protein, Big Flavor.” After losing more than 150 pounds, Hashemi found a way to make healthy eating work without giving up the foods and flavors he loves. His approachable recipes and cooking tips have since attracted a following of more than 10 million across social media. In his new book, he shares ways to bring more protein into everyday meals, from breakfast and power bowls to satisfying mains, snacks and even desserts. The result is a collection of accessible, flavor-forward recipes that make it easier to eat well and enjoy every bite.
Signed copies of the book will be available to purchase from our bookstore partner Brookline Booksmith.
