Product Review
In addition to offering detailed information on nutrition and diet, this hefty volume provides valuable advice on purchasing and storing healthy foods, menu planning, and cooking techniques that reduce calories while still retaining flavor. From soups to desserts, recipes for 400 different dishes—each of which serves ten or more—are given, with complete nutritional information included for each. While there are plenty of choices when it comes to general books on nutrition and healthy cooking, this useful, information-packed book is highly recommended for academic libraries requiring a practical text for culinary arts programs or public libraries needing an expertly written resource for professional cooks.
—John Charles, Scottsdale P.L., AZ; RED STAR REVIEW (Library Journal, April 1, 2008)
