Summary: a book for cooks with penty of time on their hands
Review: All of the recipes in this book look delicious but after having the book for almost a year I have only tried out a few. The reason? Most of the main course recipes take over an hour to prepare. The Not-Meat Loaf, for example, is described as taking over 60 minutes and that doesn't include the time it takes to prepare cooked brown rice and lentils the recipe requires. This maybe fine for Mr. Milken, who can afford his own personal chef, but those of us in the real world need recipes that are not only healthy but quick.

Summary: This cookbook should be used in everyone's home!!
Review: Every page of this book holds educational information that would help any and all individuals. A person need not be ill to reap the rewards of good nutrition from the recipes in this book. I saw Mike Milken and Ms. Ginsberg on a television show, listened to what they had to say, then immediately went to the phone in search of the book. It took 3 phone calls to places that were already sold out. Finally, on the fourth call, I found my copy. I used the pantry list in the book to help me in the grocery store that same day. Dinner and dessert that night was marvelous!! I will definitly try every single recipe in my book because I have always TRIED to be a healthy eater, now I can always BE a healthy eater! A big THANKS to: Mike Milken and Beth Ginsberg Jeanne Lawcock Derr

Summary: Incredibly designed to taste and appear like the real stuff!
Review: For years I have tried to incorporate soy products into my diet. I tried various recipes in magazines and other cookbooks, but the meals were never quite right in the taste and appearance departments. The recipes in Taste for Living, however, are exactly what I was looking for. I was pleasantly shocked when I not only looked forward to eating the food in these recipes, but so did the children! With a long line of cancer and heart disease in my family, I am grateful for the recipes and tips in this book. I know these dietary change may save my life and the lives of my family members.

Summary: Loving A Taste For Living
Review: I am thoroughly enjoying the recipes in The Taste For Living. The recipes are easy to follow, dishes are beautifully photographed, and everything I have tried has been delicious. The only addition I wish it had is an index referenced by ingredients.

Summary: Tasty and easy recipes
Review: I have 3 very young children and I don't have time to make extravagant dinners. So, I really enjoyed this cookbook because of the easy and healthy recipes. And it's food that my kids will eat even though it's GOOD for them. The "hot dogs" taste like real hot dogs! I saw the authors on "Martha Stewart Living" making all these delicious foods (quesadillas, deserts, etc.) so I decided to get the book and I'm glad I did!

Summary: Mike Milken's Favorite Recipes Are My Favorite Recipes Too!
Review: I like to eat healthy because I want to prevent cancer. This recipes are for everyone, not just for cancer patients. I am an 18 year old vegetarian and I love the recipes in this book. They are proof that you can eat great food and stay healthy at the same time.The belief that something good for you has to taste awful is just a myth. Just try the recipes in this book and convince yourself!

Summary: Great for those who are lactose intolerant
Review: I purchased this book because it contained recipes like flan that didn't require any dairy products. It also provides some great tips for substituting out ingredients like cream and other milk products without sacrificing texture and taste. At first, I was a bit concerned that most of the recipes in the book called for ingredients that I had never heard of, but even the small health-food section of my local grocery store had almost everything that I needed.
