 One of the Best!, 2008-07-03
This cookbook has extraordinary dishes. I'm surprised by some comments, in other reviews, that state the recipes are complicated or require obscure ingredients. Yes, there are more than 5 ingredients in most recipes, but that's because:
A) The recipes offer dishes that use minimal refined ingredients...Hence, you have to mix the 'raw' ingredients (as they are found in nature) in yourself. After all aren't you buying this book as a guide to eating more healthily?
B) Many of the 'extra ingredients' are spices that, for the most part, are readily available. Using your own spices - especially fresh spices - make a WORLD of difference in recipes. If you have extra fresh spices left over, simply chop and freeze in distilled (or purified water) in ice cube trays. You'll have ready/fresh spices to use in the future.
I'm not at all put off by the extra ingredients or steps. This cookbook provides exactly what I was looking for...unique recipes that are healthy in every sense of the word while also being very, very tasty.
I'm 100% satisfied and would purchase this book all over again. A claim I rarely make with cookbooks. Usually there's a handful of recipes that suit me or are truly healthy. I plan to try every single one...They are that good. The eating advice presented is sound and easy to follow.

Amazing recipes!, 2008-01-01
I love cooking, but I can sometimes get bored with it. I received this cookbook as a gift and LOVED IT! It has nutritional facts for each recipe, tells you how many servings of dairy/protein/fat/vegetables/fruits each recipe has, and general "healthy eating habits"
I get excited about cooking this stuff because I know it will taste good and be healthy for me. BLACK BEAN BURGER IS TO DIE FOR!!!!

Delicious and Beautiful, 2007-12-21
Beautiful color pictures for every recipe. I've tried several recipes and enjoyed the results (health food can look and taste wonderful). I've made the salads for socials, and not a bit remains to take home. This book is especially good for finding new and inspiring ways to enjoy vegetables.

I LOVE this Cookbook!, 2007-11-29
My mom gave me this cookbook as a wedding present two years ago. I have to say, "I love it!" All of the recipes are healthy and delicious. I live in a metro area, so the ingredients are in my grocer. LOVE IT! Highly recommended for the health conscious, metro crowd.
