I'd hardly call advice to handwash your dishes in order of dirtiness inspirational, and elements like *use the lid when cooking to cut down on cooking time and thus save energy* had me rolling my eyes. Not the reference book of useful green kitchen tips that I thought it would be.

Wish I had found this book during the hot summer we had two years ago--this green cookbook also teaches you how to cook food thoroughly with less heat. Recipes are quick and easy, mostly for smaller families i.e. 4 people or fewer.
