Edition

I love to browse cookbooks, look for new ideas, and read
some of the extra narratives related to those recipes. This particular cookbook caught my eye
because I had purchased one of the earlier versions and since misplaced
it. The older one had some good stuff in
it, but this one is like a while new world.
I can have tacos, and crepes, and all sorts of yummy desserts now like a
brulee. Vegetables and fruit are still musts,
but in new ways. Green beans and spinach
are still out there, but so are edamame and artichokes. There are sauces to drizzle over nearly any
category of food to enhance the flavors and appearance. This is not the
regimented cookbook I remember from before.
Beef is back and more recipes for a larger variety of seafood, too. As always the nutritional information follows
the recipe. So yes, I’m already happy
with this edition. Easier to stay on
track if the food is tasty. So, to that
long list of folks that worked on this edition I say, “Thank you!”
The advice offered is more helpful and much easier to
understand. My favorite part is a
shopping list found in the back that helps keep your shelves stocked with supplies.
Another item I found useful is the
portion size estimator that compares a portion with everyday articles like
baseballs, dice, and even hockey pucks. Portion
size creep is my favorite way to add to my weight. A good review once in a while is very needed
in my case. There’s plenty more advise
and suggestions within this cookbook.
This cookbook makes eating healthier much more attractive
than ever before just by allowing some new flavor and variety back into a
dietary plan. I like it and think you
will, too.
I received this book from the publisher in return for a
review.
