Light in calories but Heavy-weight of CookBook

Years ago I like others stumbled upon Cooking Light at the newstand. Having been a subscriber now for years I can attest that it is only one of two cooking magazines I subscribe to, read and use the recipes. This volume has many recipes I constantly use, e.g. see their Christmas dishes, the Balsamic Lamb Chops are a knockout. Also, the section on stuffed Chicken Breasts has kept me contiually slitting and stuffing with exotic mixtures.

The Best Recipe Book Out There

I was tired of making the same old stuff every week, so I looked for a book that would also help keep down our cholesterol and fat intake. I found this book and haven't missed using it a week since I got it. It is great not only for the healthy recipes, but for how the recipes compare to fatty ones and taste even better in my opinion. They are pretty easy to make and range from cakes and goodies to detailed Italian meals. It also gives you a selection of the same dish( ie. several kinds of lasagna to choose from). Recipes are easy to find and several have enticing photos to encourage you to try them. A "must have"in the kitchen. I'm buying it, and it's predicesors, for birthday gifts for friends...they'll "eat it up".

Inovative, appetizing receipes make healthy eating a joy!

I have only had this book two weeks and I have been cooking from it non-stop. The Cooking Light staff has brought healthy eating into the '90s and made it accessiable for everyone. The desserts and baked goods are beyond compare. Simple main dishes and wonderful treatment of vegtable side dishes abound. I love this book, it is better than any of their previous compilations to date!

Recipes are great - index needs to be catagoried like mag.

The recipes are great - it's nice to have a year subscription compiled into one book. The only downfall to the book is that it is missing the great index provided by the magazine that groups recipes into catagories. I just pulled my "97 index from the Dec issue of Cooking Light magazine as a reference and now have the greatest cook book around.
