Rating:  Summary: Wonderful cookbook Review: Buy this book and make the Sesame Chicken!
Rating:  Summary: Simple, healthy, and flavorful recipes - outstanding! Review: By far, this is my favorite cookbook in the entire world. My wife and I can never agree on anything (I like spicy and flavorful, she prefers blander dishes), but we both love every recipe we've tried from this book! The recipes are not too complex to make, most can be completed fairly quickly, they don't require many (if any!) exotic ingredients, and they taste fabulous.The inclusion of complete nutritional information (including fiber, for you Weight Watchers folks who are computing points) is an added bonus. I lent this cookbook to a coworker, and I've purchased another copy because I just can't live without it!
Rating:  Summary: More than 200 wonderfully delicious recipes Review: Healthy cooking expert Evelyn Tribole (the 1995 recipient of the American Dietetic Association's national award for excellence in private practice and consultation) has compiled more than 200 wonderfully delicious recipes in More Healthy Homestyle Cooking. From exotic dishes like Chocolate Chip Pecan Loaf; Mandarin Spinach Salad with Orange Vinaigrette; and Hummingbird Cake; to mainstream dishes like Cornmeal-Fried Fish; Mexican Pizza; and Homestyle Mashed Potatoes, More Healthy Homestyle Cooking is an impressive, "kitchen cook friendly" addition to any home or community library cookbook reference collection.
Rating:  Summary: Fantastic Food Review: I can't say enough good things about this book!! I bet I have a dozen low-fat or diet cookbooks collecting dust on my shelves because the recipes either don't taste good, they are too difficult to make, or I can't find the ingredients. Everything I have made from this cookbook has been fantastic and quick and easy, too. My husband loves what I cook now, and it is good for us, too. I am planning on purchasing her first Homestyle cookbook and getting rid of all the rest of my low fat cookbooks!

Rating:  Summary: Fantastic Review: I don't know how she keeps coming up with great tasting recipes. I just made the Whipped Brandied Candied Yams and the Holiday Cranberrry Gelatin and my guests gobbled them up. I can't wait to try the Aunt Boojies Chocolate Cake. This cookbook is staying in my kitchen.
Rating:  Summary: family friendly recipes for a "fat" family Review: I have to start by saying that every one of these recipes are great! I'm a southern girl with a southern family and southern ways, and these recipes are practically taken from my grammies cookbook(minus the fat,grammie puts bacon grease in everything).One week of eating from these recipes and I've already lost 11 pounds! The ingredients are easy to find and the recipes are so simple that I enjoy cooking again! The aunt boojies chocolate box cake tastes like a brownie(yes its that rich) but has the fluffy texture that makes it good enough to go to a church supper! It replaces my daily little debbie fix and will probably save me from a heart attack! Thank You Evelyn!
Rating:  Summary: More Healthy Homestyle Cooking--One of My Favorite Cookbooks Review: I just got this book and have made several recipes which are GREAT! The sesame chicken is as good as any you'd get in a restaurant, and WAY better for you! The beef stroganoff is one of my boyfriend's favorites--he's already asked me to make it again. It's so nice to be able to make great meals you would be happy to serve to guests, and know you're not blowing all your nutritional goals in the process! I'll be getting the first book soon!
Rating:  Summary: Wonderful cookbook Review: I love to experiment with new recipes. However, most of them are loaded with fat and calories but I never have any idea exactly how many. This book has so many recipies that are SIMILAR to those I've tried, yet I know exactly what I'm getting. Believe it or not, these recipies actually taste better than the original.
