Summary: Terrific!
Review: To begin, I'm not a fan of cook books. But now that I'm older with children I really needed an approach to cooking that was fast, nutritional, and tasty. I'm not a gourmet chef but not clueless either. I've tried a few other books and found that over time I mostly abandoned each books approach and guidelines (a few recipes aside) for variety of reasons. But I did need help in the kitchen and wasn't afraid to try something new.Selecting this book on a whim, I delighted to find a practical approach to meal preparation that meets my busy lifestyle. Better, the meals are truly tasty and healthy. Translation - less junk food for the family - less time in the kitchen - less griping at the dinner table. The writing is upbeat and easy to follow and easily referenced - pleasant to read. I rarely write reviews this glowing but in this instance I feel it's been earned - kudos to the authors. This book is presents a great approach to food preparation that is healthy and tasty that fits the today's busy lifestyle. It works both for me and my family. I highly recommend.

Summary: Fast, easy, healthy food
Review: When I bought the 90/10 Plan, I was excited to find a diet that was realistic. It taught me a new lifestyle. The problem for me has always been cooking. When I make my own food, I have a hard time figuring out the calories and such for what I've put in. And then there's portion control! But, with Cooking with Joy, I've found a great way to make healthy, tasty food that limits both calories and portion. It's been a great help, and I'm keeping the weight off. If you have the 90/10 Plan, this is a must. Even if you don't, it's a great set of recipes to help shed the pounds!
