Great for the beginning cook!

I was a little intimidated when I saw the recipes, because some of them have a lot of ingredients. Well, a lot for me, who's more of a '4 ingredients or less' type of person. But they're explained really well, and the steps themselves are simple. The ingredients that I've encountered so far are simple to find, and the results are tasty, simple food. Some of the receipes might be a little too elementary for people who have a clue in the kitchen, but I really don't, so it helps me out a lot. Plus, there's a section for kid-friendly dishes, and another that puts together menus for 'fancy meals' with 2-3 dishes. They're a bit more exotic than the tuna salad and angel hair pasta picatta I've tackled thus far. Oh, and before the section on recipes they have general cooking tips, which is really great. I really like the 'aisle-by-aisle' guide section. It helps to know how to properly store the fruits and veggies I get (and for how long), and what the different health aspects are to different types of fish or poultry or beef, or what different spices are typically used for. So, for me, this was a great book. Now my only problem is I have so many leftovers piling up because I want to try everything!

Terrific!

This is a great companion to Joy Bauer's groundbreaking 90/10 Plan. This is a diet plan that doesn't feel like one and offers stunning results without giving anything up. The recipes are accessible, easy to prepare, and offer a wide range of options for even the fussiest of eaters. This is a book to be used for years to come.

Fast, easy, healthy food

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!

BRAVO!!!

Bravo!!! Forget the fad diets... finally a sensible, easy-to-use cookbook that teaches you how to incorporate healthy eating into your lifestyle. The recipies in this book are DELICIOUS and easy to make. There's a great section on meals for kids too! If you're wondering about the best way to lose weight and stay healthy, this book is for you.

Very happy with this book.

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.
