Today's food processing machines are more versatile, affordable, and easier to use than ever before. And now is the time for readers to discover - or rediscover - the healthy goodness and time-saving convenience of their food processors.

Even the cook who's all thumbs can easily whip up soups (such as Easy French Onion Soup), vegetables (such as Dilled Potato Vegetable Bake), main dishes (Pork-Tenders-and-Potato-Bake) - even desserts (Aloha Carrot Cake or Cheyanne's Peach Crumb Pie).

4.0 out of 5 stars A very good cookbook, September 9, 2009

I usually check out a cookbook from the library before actually buying it. I bought this one for several reasons. First of all, these are recipes I would actually make. Some cookbooks have a list of ingredients so long that my eyes just glaze over and I turn the page. This book uses ingredients that you probably already have in your house. If you are watching your health, the recipes are all created with that in mind. I hate all the chopping & slicing, so I bought a food processor and this cookbook is a perfect companion.

This review is from: Cooking Healthy with a Food Processor: A Healthy Exchanges Cookbook (Healthy Exchanges Cookbooks) (Mass Market Paperback)

I have purchased several of Joanna Lund's cookbooks and I have to say that they are the most used cookbooks from my collection. The recipes are simple, straightforward, and are pleasing even to the pickiest of eaters, including my husband! They also contain nutrition information making them easy to adapt to almost any of the popular diets.

I highly recommend Ms. Lund's cookbooks.
