Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - eat in good health
I join the chorus of praise for this cookbook. I appreciate the menu format, though you're free to select individual dishes. The grilled pork tenderloin with roasted red pepper and tomato sauce is a consistent success, elegant and delicious while requiring little work. This is an excellent source of flavorful recipes for those on salt and fat restricted diets.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Clever Ways to Present High-Quality Healthful Food
I am glad that I wasn't put off by the reader who complained about the stock recipes. If you don't like the stock recipes just substitute your own favorite stock recipes and proceed with the rest of the book. This book is full of very clever and elegant ways to produce food that promotes your family's health.

The recipes are accessible to the home cook, clever, elegant and healthful. Really people, what more do you want?



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A must
This is a book everyone who enjoys cooking and eating healthy should have. While some of the dishes are a bit on the bland side, many of them are not. The wine steamed salmon is fab. The garlic soup is a favorite! Even if you don't make a single recipe just the information in the front of the book is well worth the price.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Wonderful recipes for weekends
This book is truly inspiring. It's organized by season, and then by different menus for each season. The three summer menus I have tried have been absolutely wonderful. This book really lives up to its promise; the dishes are very refined and you don't miss the fat and calories at all. The authors make very good use of herbs and aromatics such as orange juice to give their dishes a lot of flavor. You will definitely impress your friends and neighbors with these recipes. However, there are a few caveats. This book is definitely not for beginners. The recipes tend to be complicated and can involve sophisticated equipment (mandoline, crepe pan). The recipes I have tried involved many steps and a lot of knife work, and therefore consumed a lot of time. However, if you really enjoy cooking, want to eat more healthfully, and you have the time to spend, this book will become one of your favorites. My husband and I are cooking one menu a week, and now we really look forward to our Sunday dinner.
