Pasta Grammar, a channel hosted by an Italian woman married to an American man, has been posting authentic Italian pasta recipes; which, surprise, are bean based.
I keep seeing these Mediterranean cookbooks that are pushing lots of fish and chicken recipes. I saw a study that the rural Mediterranean diets had a total max of 1/4 pound of meat, fish, and chicken in a week. One of the issues with removing meat and chicken in the American diet is replacing it with equal amounts of fish or dairy.
