Since Valerie Bertinelli is a spokesperson for Jenny Craig, is her new cookbook filled with diet recipes?

While it is true that the “Hot in Cleveland” star, 52, lost some 50 pounds on the weight-loss program, her new “One Dish at a Time” cookbook is filled with time-honored Italian recipes gathered from family and friends instead of calorie-counting diet fare. “This is really how I learned how to cook—one dish at a time—either watching my mom or my [grandmother],” says the Wilmington, Del.-born actress/author, who adds that moderation is the key to comfort food. “Just remember that the first bite is always the best, so you don’t have to overindulge.”
