Book Description

January 29, 2008
A quick, easy-to-use collection of 150 recipes from prominent chefs, organized into healthy, hassle-free meals that can be made in just 30 minutes, most using five or fewer ingredients.

Cooking fast and eating fit do go together, and this quick, good-for-you meal planner-in-a-book shows you how. Welcome to Fast & Fit, a handy guide to the simplest, healthiest, tastiest meals.

Eating well has never been so easy. Fast & Fit's 150 healthy and delicious dishes draw their flavor and their healthfulness from using the freshest, in-season ingredients. All of the meals can be made in less than 30 minutes--many in less than 15--and even more require only five ingredients or less. In addition, all the recipes reflect the recommendations in the government's 2005 Dietary Guidelines for Americans and the new Food Guide Pyramid. In addition to the menus and recipes, each section of the book includes nutrition and cooking tips to help readers make meals fast and keep them fit.

The recipes come from FoodFit.com's award-winning healthy living website (www.foodfit.com), and they have already gotten rave reviews from the site's millions of visitors. It's no wonder--the recipes were created by nationally recognized chefs such as Alice Waters, Charlie Trotter, Eric Ripert, and many more. But the best part of Fast & Fit is its hands-on approach to making easy meals quickly. With ideas for easy everyday meals and casual weekend suppers, menus for holidays and parties, a personal menu planner, and shopping lists--all in a format so easy to use it will never leave your kitchen counter.

4.0 out of 5 stars Healthy Meals in under 30 minutes, July 20, 2009
By 
This review is from: Fast & Fit: 150 Quick & Healthy Everyday Recipes Ready in Just 30 Minutes or Less (Paperback)
This book is for busy people who dont have a lot of time. People who would like to eat healthy with simple ingredients in under 30 minutes.Its great because you can eat well and lose weight too. It depends on your level of cooking of course. The author Haas includes seafood, vegetarian and entertaining meals. There's 150 recipes which include, soup, beef, chicken and dessert. Everything is broken down in terms of serving size and nutritional value. The only bad thing about this book is no pictures. Its great to add to your cooking library and it doesnt make you feel like your on a diet.

This review is from: Fast & Fit: 150 Quick & Healthy Everyday Recipes Ready in Just 30 Minutes or Less (Paperback)
The book had a lot of easy recipes...some stuff that was so simple I really didn't need a recipe book to show me. And, there are no color pictures. I prefer to see (in color) what I'm going to make. I still will use it though.
