Great Cooking!,
By
This review is from: Williams-Sonoma Essentials of Healthful Cooking: Recipes and Techniques for Wholesome Home Cooking (Hardcover)
This book has really great recipes. There are some simple recipes as well as those that are more time consuming. You have to enjoy cooking, which I do...and you have to want to be in the kitchen for at least 45 min. in order to prepare the meals. They turn out to be so delicious; it's definitely worth the time and effort especially if you're trying to keep a healthy eating habit. The portions aren't rediculously large and the taste is definitely satisfying! This book is highly recommended by me

Deliciously Healthy Recipes,

This review is from: Williams-Sonoma Essentials of Healthful Cooking: Recipes and Techniques for Wholesome Home Cooking (Hardcover)
Not only is this book about Healthful Cooking, the recipes are fantastic. Recipes are easy to read and the pictures are beautiful. Start with the mushroom, potatoes, onions and green bean dish and then move on the the salmon and asparagus salad and on to the poached pears. Thank you William Sonoma for another great book.
