Award-winning chef and former Vatican Swiss Guard David Geisser presents seventy-five international, meatless recipes crafted especially for the season of Lent, inviting families to unite culinary tradition with spiritual renewal. From hearty soups and stews to flavorful curries and classic fasting fare, these dishes help make penitential practice both meaningful and memorable. Enriched by substantial reflections from biblical scholar Scott Hahn on the history and purpose of fasting, this volume explores forgotten customs such as Ember Days and St. Martin’s Lent while offering Scripture and saintly wisdom for meditation. More than a cookbook, it is a guide to living Lent with intention, devotion, and joy that extends beyond the season itself.
