Editorial Review of The Big Book of Quick & Healthy Recipes: 365 Delicious & Nutritious Meals in Under 30 Minutes
The information age has brought a much greater awareness of the need to eat nutritiously, but less time to put that awareness into practice. The Big Book of Quick and Healthy Recipes shows how even on busy days, readers can create meals that not only taste great but are nourishing and healthful as well. Recipes are grouped by season, emphasize use of fresh, local, seasonal ingredients, and feature ingredients known to have potent powers as detoxifiers, energy boosters, and healers. A wide range of dietary preferences is covered, with vegetarian, vegan, and dairy-free alternatives given where suitable.

Review Summary: Not What I Expected...Not Kid Friendly Foods
Review: This cookbook was a huge dissappointment to me. I was expecting to open the book and find great ideas and recipes to make family meals a little more healthy and exciting again! Just a few of the recipes look ok to me...but I am adult. My kids would not like any of these recipes, I am sure! Scandinavian Beet Burgers hmmm, try serving that to a 14 year old! Tibetan Boetuk..what is that? So, to sum it all up in one thought...
this is one cookbook that will grow old in a book shelf of other dust gathering bad purchases. My advice is to go see it in the book store first if you think you may still be interesed. I would have chosen to pass on this one if I had taken my own advice and previewed it first!!!

Review Summary: Not for beginners
Review: I was really disappointed with this book - I bought it about a year ago and # of times used = 0. I was hoping this would be more traditional, familiar meals that could be prepared in 30 minutes, but no such luck. Half of the recipes have titles that I've never heard of, and most have ingredients that you wouldn't find at your every day grocery store. I wouldn't even know what would be a suitable substitute. Nothing even sounds appetizing. If you were already familiar with cooking, this book may be of more use, but as a beginner looking for some quick, healthy recipes for my new family, this did not work out.
