Over the last few decades, nutritional authorities have transformed the way we experience the family meal. No longer is "meat and potatoes" considered the standard for what should be served for... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I'm so glad I bought this book! I knew I needed to eat better, but found it tough to break the fast food cycle. This book gave me the incentive and the motivation to take control of what I eat. It gives you lots of options, including how to still eat beef in a healthy way, which is exactly what I do, in moderation and in small portions. It also shows you how to shore up your diet with more whole grains, fruits and vegetables. A previous review seems way off base--this book does NOT "push" soy recipes at every turn. There are very few soy recipes. It also doesn't say that beef is evil. On the contrary, the authors explain how beef can be a healthy part of a healthy diet...if you eat it in a healthy way!! I really recommend this book. Knowledge about the food you eat is ALWAYS better than ignorance, and this book is full of knowledge and sound, sensible nutritional advice. Read it and feel better the very first day.
A life saver here! I feel better than ever!

I was skeptical when I first picked up this book, but I thought I'd give it a try. I had been toying with becoming vegitarian for a while (on my doctor's orders), but every time I tried, I went right back to an unhealthy diet. What I like about this book is that it doesn't expect the reader to eliminate beef from the diet, but it helps the reader to understand how to eat better meat, and to subsitute beef for other things. It's easy to follow, and I feel better than I have in years. My skin is clearer and I have more energy too. I recommend this book to anyone looking to improve their basic diet and health.
