This volume of the Best Mediterranean Diet recipes is especially for the spring season.
It focuses on the delicious food that is fresh during the spring season.

Many of these recipes will actually work any time of the year.

This is especially true if you live in location that has availability of the food year round.
While many of these recipes are not necessarily specific to the Mediterranean regions of the world, they are however friendly to the Mediterranean diet itself.

Possibly the most popular question of the diet is what is not allowed on the Mediterranean diet.

To be honest, the diet is largely all about the moderation of food.
By moderation, I mean eating more of the fresh fruits and vegetables and less of the meats, sugars, and processed stuff.

Here is what is not allowed on the Mediterranean diet, or allowed in moderation.

I mentioned processed stuff, such as many snack foods (which most diets would agree should be avoided).
Other foods to avoid on the Mediterranean diet include refined sugar, refined grains (white flour etc) and non-vegetable based oils.
