Really Does Make it Easy to Eat Healthy

I bought this book in an effort to eat and cook healthier that I honestly thought was destined to fail. But this book has stuck, and I cook from it all the time. The Edamame "Hummus" is a virtual constant in my house - who knew? I consult this book regularly, and the principles put forth have translated into all my daily cooking. I recommend this book to friends all the time and it sits on my shelf with a colorful collection of post-it flags marking my favortie recipes, like Baked Shrimp with Feta. And the Turkey Meatballs are fantastic - I make a batch and freeze the, to have on hand.

Better than advdertised!

I ordered this cookbook after seeing it on a blog site. Absolutely a keeper! The recipes are clearly written, concise and the end product is fantastic! Have bought many copies to give as gifts.

Not for Your Average Cook

I really enjoy Ellie Krieger's show on the Food Network. She has great tips for making almost every dish more healthful. Unfortunately this cookbook is full of amazing recipes that my family would never eat. Grilled Zucchini Roll-ups with Goat Cheese, Portobello Panini with Gorgonzola and Sun-Dried Tomatoes, and White Gazpacho with Grapes and Toasted Almonds are just a few examples of foods my kids would never touch and which require ingredients we never buy. I was looking for a cookbook that gave simple substitutions for more healthful cooking. Most of these recipes are just too fancy for us. Cornmeal-Crusted Ratatouille Tart? Really?!

My husband says he eats like a king - great job Ellie!!

Wonderful recipes!

I make her Ratatouille Tart almost every week, it is that good! My husband and daughter who both dislike eggplant do not even notice that eggplant is in the tart. One tip if you start making it alot too - make 2 batches of roasted eggplant & zucchini at one time and freeze one batch to use later. The sloppy joes are good and the Pasta with escarole, white beans, and chicken sausage is wonderful with a glass of wine. Buffalo Chicken Salad is good but do not use a baking sheet to broil the chicken. I had a category 4 mess on my hands after the chicken juice flowed off the baking sheet all over my oven and kitchen floor. No fun. Now I use a broiler pan.

My husband says he eats like a king. Now isn't that the complement all women want to hear? Great job, Ellie!

Inspirational!

I do all the cooking at my house. Have really loved the inspiration this book gave me to try some new things in a healthier way. My husband loves the results and doesn't mind helping with the clean-up!

Do you think that healthy food couldn't possibly taste good? Does the idea of "eating healthy" conjure up images of roughage and steamed vegetables? Author Ellie Krieger, host of Food Network's Healthy Appetite, will change all that. A registered dietitian, Ellie is also a lover and proponent of good, fresh food, simply but deliciously prepared. And she's not about denial--no nonfat foods here, because when you take the fat out of natural foods, in go the chemicals. Don't deny yourself butter--use a pat of it, but put it front and center on those mashed potatoes, so you can revel in it with all your senses. The Food You Crave is all you'll need to change the way you eat and change the way you feel. It contains 200 recipes that cover every meal of the day and every craving you might have. Every recipe contains a complete nutritional breakdown, as well as tips on ingredients and techniques that will keep you eating smart and eating well.
