Customer Rating:      Summary: Wholesome whole foods for two Comment: This cookbook features healthy, interesting recipes for two that can be prepared quickly yet don't rely on a lot of convenience foods. Live alone? Pack leftovers for lunch the next day. If you like "comfort-style" food but don't like all the calories and fat this is the book for you!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Good choice! Comment: My husband and I have made several recipes from this book, and they've all been very good. Directions are easy to follow and the meals are tasty. When we're cooking for more than just the two of us, it's easy enough to just double the recipes. We like to watch what we eat, so it's great to have a cookbook that includes calorie count and nutrition information -- most cookbooks I've seen don't do that. The one thing I would like to have seen the author do differently is to include the nutritional information based on weight (eg. 3 oz. portion) or a measured portion (eg. 2 cups), rather than just "per serving." But overall, it's a great book.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Misleading book title Comment: I was surprised and annoyed at how many recipes there were for many more servings per recipe than two. This book is called Healthy Cooking For Two and often strays far from two servings. This book was not correctly titled and was at best deceptive.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Good Cooking Comment: The recipes are easy to follow, although they require ingredients I wouldn't normally have around the house. That was the only difficult part. Then again, no one said being healthy was easy.
I reccommend this to anyone who wants to eat healthy and doesn't mind working a little for it.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Easy, fast, and so delicious!!! Comment: This is an excellent cookbook for anyone wanting to eat healthy, but not spend hours in the kitchen. The results are extra tasty and there is no guilt because every recipe has the calories, fat, etc. printed on the page! I have had success with every recipe, and it is by no means a sacrifice to eat these healthy dishes. I checked this book out from the library, and after making several recipes I had to buy a copy to keep! Get a copy today if you want fast, easy, and very delicious recipes!
