Review

"Macrobiotics for the 21st century . . . simple, practical, and delicious! It belongs on the bookshelf of every cook who recognizes the connection between what we eat and how we feel."
(Melanie Melia, macrobiotic chef and owner of Rising Tide Natural Foods Market )

"Author Lisa Turner sets out to 'take the best of macrobiotic principles and adapt them to a Western lifestyle and sense of taste, with fast, simple, and delicious dishes.' She includes sections on stocking the kitchen, cutting and cooking techniques, eating out and entertaining, and a month of meal plans. Her appealing recipes don't leave out breakfasts or desserts."
(Meredith McCarty, American Macrobiotic Cuisine )

"Mostly Macro blends nutritional information with mouth-watering recipes. It not only demonstrates the there's more to macrobiotics than brown rice, it's also a wonderful collection of vegetarian recipes. Make your meals "mostly macro" for a healthy approach to delicious food."
(Vegetarian Gourmet )

(Neal D. Barnard, M.D., founder/president of Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, and one of the founders of the New Four Foods Group  )

5.0 out of 5 stars Great macrobiotic book!, October 16, 2004
By Brian Redmond (Oregon Coast) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book contains excellent background on macrobiotics and the why/why nots of the ingredients used. The recipes are diverse and very good. If you've ever thought that a macrobiotic diet would be boring and flavorless, you really need this book. This is by far my favorite of all the macrobiotic books I've read.

4.0 out of 5 stars balanced meal ideas, December 12, 2008
Really good book if you want to expand your macro-biotic cooking repertoire.
There are nice references to the thermal nature of foods ( heating/ or cooling,Yin/Yang), that are helpful for those who want to create more balanced meals for their body type or the season. (No, I don't mean the food pyramid! hee hee )
A nice addition to a natural cooking library.
