Most of us simply arent willing to sacrifice culinary excellence for meals that are good for us. Its no wonder, then, that Cooking Light is Americas leading epicurean magazine and the most trusted... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I took this cookbook out from the library a few weeks ago. I have since made several of the recipes and I am now asking for this cookbook for Christmas! I have several cookbooks but I would say this is superior to them all. Not only does it have great recipes, but the tips throughout the book, such as 'How to seed a pomegranate' are really useful. I especially liked the section that tells you which ingredients last in the fridge and freezer. I would say this cookbook does not have many 'traditional' recipes, but I did make the cream cheese brownies and they were a hit! Also of note, the chipotle shrimp cups and edemame and shrimp salad. My only dislike of this book is the index, which I think can, at times, be poorly organized when trying to find your favorites. I agree with another review that also has the subscription--buy this book instead of a yearly subscription! While there are a lot of ads in each issue, there are a fair number of recipes. This cookbook however, has some of the best rated recipes!
The best cookbook out there!

Tasty,Great Low Fat Recipes

This is a great book. The recipes are excellent and are a compilation of the Cooking Light magazine. No need to subscribe to the magazine unless you want more than light cooking recipes. Don't get me wrong, the magazine is great too but has more articles on things other than cooking. I've made several recipes from this book and defy anyone to see the difference between the fat recipes and the ones offered in the book. I love Cooking Light.
Absolutely delicious!

This is an excellent cookbook with surprisingly delicious recipes. I have been using it daily for the past two weeks. My husband and I have enjoyed all of our meals. I can't believe that these recipes are actually healthy and so easy to make. There are quite a few 'all-time favorite' recipes included that are very tasty. I strongly recommendly this cookbook. There's a lot of variety...something for everyone.
definitely a tummy pleaser
