More than 300 scrumptious, heart-healthy recipes from the kitchen of the best-selling authors of Choose to Lose and Eater’s Choice. Long acclaimed as the nation’s leading authorities on healthful eating, Dr. Ron and Nancy Goor have assembled, for the first time under one cover, the finest recipes in their repertoire: appetizers, soups, salads, main courses, and desserts so delicious you won’t believe they are actually good for you. To help you monitor dietary fat and cholesterol, each recipe is accompanied by a full analysis of calories and fat, and every one bears the user-friendly stamp that runs through all the Goors’ books—and has made them million-copy bestsellers. The instructions are foolproof and clear, so even beginners will have no trouble turning our luscious, heart-healthy meals. Techniques have been streamlined, prep times have been minimized, and ingredients are available in any supermarket. Everyone can now eat well.
I'm one of those people who buys cookbooks in a fit of inspiration and then deems all the recipes unsuitable for whatever reason (too much work, weird ingredients, unappetizing ingredients, bland food...). I tell you this only so that you realize for me to actually rate a cookbook four stars means that I not only read it, I found stuff to make, actually made it, and *liked* it.
Granted, I certainly haven't made everything in the book, but the things I have tried were consistently flavorful, healthful and uncomplicated, with a minimum of special-order ingredients needed (or the ability to substitute pretty easily).
The salad dressing, the "kitchen sink" lentil soup, and the mustard chicken have all made it into regular rotation in my house.
This is a solid cookbook that I've turned to over and over again.
