I have all of EK's cookbooks, and she doesn't disappoint. The thing I find so appealing about her approach is that she totally gets people and food. She never says "I know you love it, but it isn't good for you so just don't eat it." She knows that people love to eat good food. She doesn't preach and she doesn't make you feel horrible about yourself because you really, really like cheese. She figures out a way to make "off-limits" foods accessible to those of us that love food AND want to be healthy. Her philosophy is all about balance (usually, sometimes, rarely foods) and her cookbooks give tons of examples for how to incorporate this balance into you diet. Comfort Food Fix is a great addition to my EK collection. I've only had it a few days, but have made several of the recipes (the pumpkin-cranberry bread is delicious and will be perfect for the holidays) and bought ingredients today to make several more. I feel good about preparing her recipes for my family. And they feel good eating them!

Ellie, you really hit it out of the Ball Park with your New Book "Comfort Food Fix:Feel- Good Favorites Made Healthy".The thing that was a real eye opener for me was the before and after data showing how many calories one could save by making a few simple changes.
Your meatloaf receipe and mashed potatoes were mouthwatering.I couldn't tell any difference between my old receipes,nor could my family!
Please,please,keep your beautifully photographed cookbooks comming!

Format: Hardcover Vine Customer Review of Free Product ( What's this? )
This is the third book from Ellie Krieger that I own, though I have also read and made recipes out of others by her as well as those on the Food Network website. What I love about her food, as illustrated in this book is that it never feels like 'diet' food. It's full of sumptuous, crave-worthy foods that are made from real ingredients and taste like an only slightly lighter version of the original. I also appreciate that she pairs down the calories and fat grams in each recipe by making inspired swaps, not by making everything a teeny, tiny portion size. Expect classic American comfort foods like Baked Jalapeno Poppers, Stuffed Potato Skins, Nachos, Oven-Fried Shrimp and Chicken Parmesan to mention a few. I'm especially fond of her version of fish fingers in this book. They're very easy to make, require mostly pantry staples (flour, eggs, panko, etc.) and come together quickly. Overall, I would say the skill level of this book is easy to moderate. The time commitment is probably a little over 30 minutes per recipe, but on par with recipes from places like Cooking Light.

Best of all, her recipes really work. Of all the recipes of hers I've made over the years, I can't remember a single flop. Granted, I am a pretty experienced cook, but I still have my share of fails with other books and recipe sites. The recipes seem to be well tested and the directions are also exceptionally clear.

Thrilled to see this book is just as successful as her previous. I'd also recommend the Canyon Ranch books and Cooking Light cookbooks as other great resources for lower fat recipes that still satisfy.

I have all three of Ellie's cookbooks and have to say that this is the best of the three. The recipes are delicious, and - as usual with Ellie - the portion sizes are very realistic. She doesn't use a lot of unusual ingredients, and the combination of flavors is awesome! I would strongly recommend the following recipes: the meatloaf, the scalloped potatoes (we made that into a main dish by adding chopped ham to it, and my six year old couldn't get enough of it!), and the banana pancakes (my husband had 3 pieces "to try" while I was still cooking them on the griddle. Nice job, Ellie - this book is a winner!

Format: Hardcover Vine Customer Review of Free Product ( What's this? )
This book has amazing recipes! The recipes don't call for ingredients I don't know where to find nor are they too complex for the average homebody to handle. I am impressed by the number of recipes I know my hubby will be willing to try, from make it yourself microwave popcorn in a paper bag to buffalo wings and individual cheesecakes. There are enough desserts, including homemade pudding and chocolate covered pretzel bites, to keep anyone from feeling deprived. The color photos are wonderful and there are loads of them to make your stomach growl while flipping through the book. This is a keeper. I highly recommend this book.

OMG the recipes are so yummy and healthful too! The "Everything" Parmesan Crisps are such a great snack and only 40 calories for 2. The broiled buffalo wings are just as good as restaurant-style without the frying, I also love the green bean casserole with crispy shallots is going to be my holiday center piece, The pictures are gorgeous and I can't wait to try out everything else!

I honestly couldn't find a single thing about this book that I disliked. The photos are luscious, the recipes simple and straightforward, and the food is exactly the kind of food I was hoping I'd be able to make from this book! I would have been happy with several recipes I wanted to make: nearly the whole BOOK is filled with them! Even the BREAKFASTS in this book were things I'd want to make (first time THAT'S happened!). It's regular food that we all WANT to eat, made healthy. But not so much so that you know it's going to taste like cardboard. She uses good ingredients, but mostly just uses less.

And I could not BELIEVE how few calories some of this stuff had: Chicken Parm down from 630 calories (traditional) to 390 calories (Ellie's version)! You also get Chicken Marsala, pot pie, calzones, fried chicken, chicken alfredo, posole, stuffed cabbage, country fried steak with gravy, shrimp scampi---and that's just a few! There are easily close to 200 recipes in this book--and I only saw a couple I might not want to make. (I didn't see ANY I didn't think I COULD make--they all look pretty easy.)

There's a section on:

breakfasts
snacks/starters
soups/salads
meat main dishes
poultry main dishes
seafood main dishes
vegetarian main dishes
sides & salads (with some REALLY GOOD recipes--I never seem to get a cookbook that has enough really good side dishes, but I got one now!)
and desserts.

Each section has plenty of recipes, and she includes a section in front on nutrition and ways to eat well and healthy.

I always loved Ellie's FN show, but this cookbook--this is WAY past what I expected.
