Tyler Florence: Celeb Chef, Locavore

When it comes to food, the people of Marin County, where I live, are pretty darn lucky...and we know it. We have the benefit of living in the heart of California's bounty, and to ignore that would be a crime. So the concept of being a locavore, or one who chooses whenever possible to incorporate locally grown or locally produced food into one's nutrition plan, is of great importance.

Now, I certainly didn't invent this concept, but over the past few years I've had many discussions with colleagues, friends, and family about what being a locavore means exactly, and how it can best be applied to cooking. And being a locavore doesn't simply stop at addressing the proximity of your food source. Rather, it encompasses, both directly and indirectly, such concepts as sustainability, organic farming, and being "green," among others. This is all important stuff, and as I grow as a chef, a businessman, and a father, the impact of these choices takes on greater and greater significance.

Meals on Tap

Americans have been cooking with wine ever since Julia Child brought the finer points of French cooking to our shores 50 years ago. But now a humbler libation is making its star turn: beer. "Cooking with beer is a hot culinary trend," says Rebecca Newell, executive chef at The Beehive, an eclectic comfort-food restaurant in Boston. "The microbrew boom of the 1990s made people aware of the true craftsmanship with which beer can be made, and now they're experimenting with beer in the kitchen as well as at the bar."

The right beer can deepen the flavors of both sweet and savory dishes, which is why Newell switched from cooking mussels in white wine to exclusively in lager. (And unlike at the bar, there's no need to worry about ingesting too much—most of the alcohol burns off during cooking, even as the flavors intensify.)

Lose Weight Fast!

Jessica Whitehead, 41
Director of sales for a technology company, Cheshire, CT

Before: 345 lbs
After: 145 lbs

Jessica Whitehead was never one to pass up a good time?especially if food was involved. For years she met friends every night for dinner, ordering the largest sizes and every add-on: extra cheese on her pizza, extra mayo on her overstuffed sandwiches, and a side of chips or fries with her meal.

"Eating big and trying everything was symbolic of success and living my life fully?I literally 'lived large,' " she says. But if someone asked her to play volleyball or go skiing, Jessica, 5'5", always opted out because she feared her weight?which peaked at 345 pounds at age 36?would prevent her from participating. "I was embarrassed. I felt as if I couldn't do those things."

You'll work out 5 days a week?alternating between fast-paced strength circuits and cardio intervals.

On days 1, 3, and 5 you?ll focus on strength: Perform one set of the first exercise and then quickly move on to the next one until you?ve completed one set of all five strength exercises. That?s one circuit. Rest for one minute, and repeat. You?ll complete the circuit three times.

On days 2 and 4 you'll focus on cardio: Complete the 20-minute cardio interval using high-intensity bursts to push your body to the max in the shortest amount of time.
