Format:Hardcover
I am an avid reader of the Cooking Light magazine. I often remember a dish that I read about and found it frustrating to go back through a pile of magazines to locate the recipe. I now have 3 years of the annuals and find it very convenient. The index is by month and alphabetical.

Cooking Light magazine is the best lifestyle, health conscience magazine published. It appeals to the novice and the experienced chef and health nut. I bought the book because I own 2 previous editions. These cookbooks are awesome. Years ago, I barely knew how to throw together spaghetti. Now, I explore my cookbooks and magazines for new ideas. The recipes appeal, not only to me, but my young son and husband. Meal time doesn't have to be bland or fattening anymore!! It takes getting used to the formating, receipes grouped by month; however, it works better for produce that is in season. Why spend a fortune in February for something that comes in spring or summer? What really helped me get started down this path, was the easy & fast receipes. They allowed me to graduate to more complicated dishes. I recommend this book (and the other Cooking Light publications) to everyone that I can.

This is the most recent of a series. I've bought them all and enjoy making recipes from them immensely. The variety is fabulous, the food deliciousand the instructions always easy to understand. It's fun to cook healthy when you have a great tool like these cookbooks. My husband thinks we eat better than 90% of people in the US and most of my recipes come from Cooking Light. The recipes range from easy to prepare to long and involved . The end product is nearly always worth your time and effort. YUM!!

Annual receipes 2008
I am a long time subscriber to Cooking Light magazine. I look forward to the yearly book so I can discard my magazines. All the receipes are in one book. A great convenience.

Recipes sound great!
But there are hardly any pictures. It's pages and pages of boring texts, with very little pictures.

Great everyday cookbook!
I ordered the 2006 and 2007 edition from Amazon after using the 2008 and 2009 for two weeks. Every week, I go through all four books and pick new recipes to try. Read more

This book is nothing more than scanned receipes in BLACK & WHITE from their magazines. A few colored receipes in the middle. Not worth the money. Read more
