Cooking Light Chicken Cookbook Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have STACKS of cookbooks and I adore cooking for my family. This is a good little cookbook helping make that old standby in healthy cooking interesting again. Until I got this book I was on the verge of being happy to never eat chicken again. There are some good recipes in here. Worth buying, I believe, even if you only find a few favorites. Try the Chutney Chicken Salad, Herbed Chicken with Sour cream-Wine sauce, and any of their asian inspired stir frys. You'll get some good ideas out of this one.

Light and Easy Baking Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Having been an avid foodie and snobbish dessert baker for the last 10 years, I generally ignore both foods and cookbooks that are labeled "light." However, my vanity and aging metabolism have recently convinced me to foray into the realm of healthy and moderate cooking and I've purchased a dozen or so such cookbooks in the last few months.
Beatrice Ojakangas is an excellent baker and teacher (she was featured in "Baking with Julia") and this book is a great addition to my personal collection. The author follows a really reasonable approach of presenting recipes that are either intrinsically light or which can be lightened without sacrificing overall appeal. This book doesn't strive to present lowfat versions of rich desserts that are better left alone. Nor does it use any strange artificial ingredients. What it does do is provide some top-notch recipes that satisfy my most common sweet-tooth cravings: for cake, cookies, something chocolatey, etc. This book won't be a disappointment!

Healthy Calendar Diabetic Cooking Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I received this book in Feb., but started with the first week of recipes. Most of the meals have been good, some have been excellent. They seem to be right in line with low glycemic diet guidelines. Several meals that claim to serve 4 didn't serve 3. I have skipped some meals, but have tried several new herbs and vegs.
One reservation--not everyone can tolerate chili, cumin, cayenne pepper, and other "hot" food items. Suggestions for alternate flavorings would have been nice.
I intend to keep using this book to the end, and then start over again, with my own notes and reminders on each recipe I have already tried.

The American Lighthouse Cookbook: The Best Recipes and Stories from America's Shorelines Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Every time I look at a lighthouse in America, I get seriously hungry, and so when this book came along, I was torn between spending my time in the kitchen reading and cooking, or driving along the coast eating and looking at lighthouses.
These recipes are fabulous, and although I haven't tries all of the recipes, the simple ones are really good!!! Just ask the scruffy lighthousekeeper! There's a special, really special place in my cookbook collection for this book, but I can't put it there now because I'm cooking from it right now.
Look for my video review of this book soon.
