This review is from: Cooking with Herbs & Spices: Easy, Low-Fat Flavor (Paperback)

This cookbook has fun twists on some old favorites. The cornish game hens stuffed with orange wedges, rosemary and garlic and glazed with orange marmalade and rosemary was yummy! I bought this book to give as a gift, but I have to order another because the pages are wearing! If you grow your own herbs or purchase them at the store, this is a great book for using herbs in your cooking.
