Customer Reviews

Includes some great quick options

I agree with other reviewers that the organization can be frustrating, but I still think this is an excellent cookbook. It includes a range of recipes from the complex to the relatively simple. This particular edition of the Cooking Light series includes a segment on how to help a family organize their kitchen and make some quick weeknight meals. Personally, I am particularly a fan of the quicker recipes, and every one I have tried has been a huge hit with my family -- even my 2 year old.

An outstanding collection.

COOKING LIGHT is a leading food magazine in this country, offering tips on nutrition and tested recipes which convert high-calorie productions to healthier fare. The 2007 annual collection of COOKING LIGHT ANNUAL RECIPES is packed with over a thousand of such recipes, including 100 meal plans with dishes which include the latest cooking techniques and conveniences. Public lending libraries will find it a very popular lend: it compiles recipes from 2006 and provides a seasonal approach which makes it easy to take advantage of fresh produce and ingredients. An outstanding collection. Diane C. Donovan California Bookwatch

A Year of Health and Nutrition

I don't believe that there's a legitimate food recommender out there who doesn't suggest that we would all be better off if we hade thing that are lighter than the normal American diet. One response to this was the start up of 'Cooking light' magazine. From now where, this magazine has grown with spactular success. The magazine has a collection of recipies centered around cooking light. Now a year's supply of how to cook everything you can imagine in a lighter, healthier way but with recipies that have been 'kitchen tested' for accuracy and taste. It's straight from the pages of the magazine. And that makes for one of the strengths causes one of the problems with the book. It's a strength because the issues of the magazine are organized around something such as: menus for a week for a family of two. It's a weakness because if you're trying to find all of the salads, they aren't found together. All in all, here's a thousand recipies, with an emphasis on healthy, lighter eating.

Another year's worth of great recipes

Cooking Light's recipes are always good and often excellent. I take the magazine and try some of them throughout the year. But it is so nice to have them all in one place and not have to keep clipped recipes! Sometimes the ingredients can get a bit exotic -- but nothing that you can't find in a large supermarket. Enjoy!

Healthy cooking resource

I love the Cooking Light Magazine for healthy recipes and for every day cooking. It is much easier to find recipes using the Cooking Light Annual Recipes than flipping thru various magazines. Even if you don't take the magazine, I recommend getting the cookbook as a good resource for cooking variety and recipes without a lot of additional fat, sodium etc.
