FIRST SENTENCE: This book is much more than a collection of recipes, it is a new way of looking at food - a fresh approach to eating that, just like my Food Network show Healthy Appetite is about having the food you crave in a healthier way, using real ingredients prepared simply enough for every day but special and inspired enough to wow you.
SUMMARY: [From BN] Do you think that healthy food couldn't possibly taste good? Does the idea of "eating healthy" conjure up images of roughage and steamed vegetables? Author Ellie Krieger, host of Food Network's Healthy Appetite, will change all that. A registered dietitian, Ellie is also a lover and proponent of good, fresh food, simply but deliciously prepared. And she's not about denial—no nonfat foods here, because when you take the fat out of natural foods, in go the chemicals. Don't deny yourself butter—use a pat of it, but put it front and center on those mashed potatoes, so you can revel in it with all your senses. The Food You Crave is all you'll need to change the way you eat and change the way you feel. It contains 200 recipes that cover every meal of the day and every craving you might have. Every recipe contains a complete nutritional breakdown, as well as tips on ingredients and techniques that will keep you eating smart and eating well.
THOUGHTS: Ellie Krieger makes me want to EAT ALL THE THINGS. This book is well written and enticing. I enjoy how she shares what some of the meals mean to her everyday life.
RATING: 7/10 [Very Good]
