5.0 out of 5 stars Terrific for weight loss!, April 7, 2008
This review is from: Taste of Home: Everyday Light Meals (Hardcover)
My wife is picking out new recipes from this book every day, and I have to say that this is a surprisingly consistent book when it comes to "light" fare. Most "healthy" cookbooks either contain only one or two winners, or have such delicious fare like sprouts and lima bean brownies. In this book, some recipes have been better than others, but all recipes so far have been good, and best of all, I've lost 30 lbs in the last 2 1/2 months! Granted, I've been working out as well, but I can honestly say this book has definitely had an impact on my weight loss!

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent cookbook, but as always, some hits and misses..., January 28, 2008
This review is from: Taste of Home: Everyday Light Meals (Hardcover)
Excellent pictures of recipes which help me decide what looks appetizing at least, rather than going through the science on a recipe to guess how it's supposed to turn out.

The upside: everything was pictured, *easy* to prepare, and the ingredients have yet to send us on a hunt for something we couldn't find in your average American grocery store.

The downsides: Some of the recipes are very 'American', meaning they appeal to the folks that think ketchup is 'spicy'. I've had to "Bam" a few of these recipes to my liking. The other thing is that there's a lot of interpretation to what "1/2 cup of salsa" could do for a meal. IE: 1/2 cup of pace vs. 1/2 cup of homemade can completely make the meal different. It's no big thing, it just requires some vigilance to make sure it tastes as well as it looks in the picture.

The coffee pot-roast was awesome, but I do NOT suggest making a gravy out of the juices. Rather, it's a perfect match for barbecue sauce. The quesadillas are a 4-star favorite in the house, as well as the macaroni and cheese.
