I did like the `healthy' twist on these recipes; however, I do believe this twist did take away much of the flavor these dishes would normally have.
Rating: - Great Book.
This book a very a good basic healthy latin american cookbook. The difference in the overall calories are not so huge however the dishes are much lower fat. I have done several recipes from this book and the flavors are very authentic. I would have liked more nutritional information like fiber and sat. fat content however it did have calories, carbs, protein and overall fat. GREAT BOOK

Although my mom was one of the better cooks I knew, I grew up in a household where dinner was not dinner if there was no meat. I knew first hand of many other cooks who fried foods in lard, or cooked with heavy creams, whole milks, white rice and sugar (brown rice and sugar were unheard of). I loved Latin American cooking and if I ate in my adulthood as I did as a child, I would probably have died of a heart attack by age 40. Stephen Raichlen presents healthy alternatives to traditional ingredients and takes the time to explain why he's made those substitutions. This is a great book if you savor Latin American cooking and want to enjoy it for years to come.
