Rating: - Very Tasty and Healthier!
I have really enjoyed this cookbook! I have made 6 recipes - The Thai/coconut chicken, Asian greens, turkey meatloaf, French fries, steak tacos and carrot cupcakes. All were very good and especially loved the turkey meatloaf, fries, coconut chicken and carrot cupcakes(for my son's 2nd birthday)! I got into a recipe rut and this has helped out tremendously. Healthier can be easy and tasty. I am an RD and love to cook - her book is fun, informative and full of good recipes. Highly recommended!

What an awesome cookbook and guide to better eating. I wish she would do a children's cookbook to teach adults what to do. If we help our kids we will not have the obesity problems we do now.

Rating: - Luscious and simple
I tested some of the recipes in this cookbook and was quite happy with them. There are ways to trim calories even further (I am a big fan of egg substitute and Splenda), but today the trend is to offer recipes that are both healthy and 'crave-worthy', and this one is right on the mark. If you buy this cookbook, you can make the recipe 'as is' or find the way to cut calories that is acceptable to you. Some people can live with near-zero fat desserts, other cannot. Some people worship Splenda, others loathe it. The great advantage of this cookbook is that recipes are crave-worthy for anyone, including people who do not need to restrict their calories.

This book is great! I have made many of the recipes and not only are they easy...but they taste terrific! I have been on a mission lately to cook healthier for my family and this book has just done the trick. I love the way that Ellie puts the foods that we love along with the foods that are healthy for us so that way we don't feel deprived. For example, putting both whole wheat flour and regular all purpose flour gives the taste that we love but cuts back on the badness if we had just used entirely the all purpose flour. I have been very conscious of my decisions when shopping since buying and reading this book. I think that everyone should add this recipe book to their kitchen! I LOVE IT!!!
