5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent & tasty food,
By Issaquahzimodo (Seattle, WA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Jane Brody's Good Food Book: Living the High-Carbohydrate Way (Hardcover)
I've been using this cookbook for almost 20 years. Over that period of time the current, latest nutritional advice continues to change and contradict that which came before. But I still love these recipes and I'm still alive and not fat. [Those who don't eat too much and excercise seem to do OK.] These recipes are tasty and easy to prepare. Jane's Turkey Carcass Soup is the best standard soup stock recipe I have ever found. If you actually enjoy vegetables - and don't need to approach them like medicine or something to force yourself to eat beacause they're "good for you" - then I highly recommend this book.

The standard cookbook in our house,
By "vter" (Harrisonburg, VA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Jane Brody's Good Food Book: Living the High-Carbohydrate Way (Paperback)
I love to read cookbooks, and I credit Jane Brody for that! My mother gave me this book years ago when I was trying to eat healthier and it worked. The information on nutrition in the beginning of the book is excellent and I have referred to it again and again. When I got married to a man who would almost rather eat dirt than eat "healthy" food, I won him over with recipes from this book. Now my kids love them, too. I can't say enough good things about Jane Brody - I also have her "Good Food Gourmet" - another triumph and a staple in my kitchen.

This book changed my life.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Jane Brody's Good Food Book: Living the High-Carbohydrate Way (Paperback)
Three years ago I decided to get healthy: change the way I eat, exercise, live. Jane Brody's Good Food Book was given to me as a gift and has been part of my life ever since. Her recipes are delicious. She uses lots of herbs and substitutes bad stuff in traditional recipes with good stuff. It's real cooking for real life.
