Cooking Healthy with a Man in Mind

A rare cookbook: simple, healthy recipes, tasty but not for gourmets. I also have Lund's book "Cooking Healthy with a Food Processor," and both books share nutritional summaries for each recipe, valuable for Weight Watchers and Diabetics. Introductory chapters of a general nature are equally valuable. In this book Lund shows how to substitute low-fat, low-calorie ingredients for otherwise high-calorie ingredients, such as sour cream, sweet evaporated milk, cooking oil in recipes, and others. Great book for an old widower like me!

Simple recipes with easy to find ingredients!

Good recipes that taste good, Good variety of foods. Plain ingredients that you can find anywhere & don't cost an arm & a leg.

This is absolutely my favorite cookbook!! When I was trying to diet, I was always left feeling hungry and I hated doing without dessert. So of course my diets would fail. I happened to see Joanna Lund's cooking program on tv and decided it was worth trying one of her books. My husband and I love every recipe I have tried!! The best part of all is I feel satisfied and full when I eat, and I have lost 9 lbs since buying this book 7 weeks ago. I have bought several more of her cookbooks recently and love them too. Joanna Lund cookbooks are the only ones I will use now. I highly recommend this book!!

After my husband had a heart attack in October - we had to radically change our way of eating. I saw really fast that I had to come up with something other than chicken and broccoli! At a cardiac rehab education class, another wife mentioned she used the cookbooks by Joanna Lund. Having nothing but a hungry husband to lose, I ordered one and was pleasantly surprised that not only did she use ingredients that I have in my kitchen, the results were tasty, filling and did not look HEALTHY! ( A sure way to chase my husband out of the kitchen!) EAch recipe is broken down by calories, fat grams, sodium and most diet exchange program needs. Fantastic aid for anyone who is realigning their diets for any reason!

This book has VERY GOOD, basic recipes for the whole family. No fancy ingredients. Simple to make. Plenty of variety. This has become my most used cookbook.

This cookbook has some great recipes. I bought this book about 10 years ago and lost it. I like this book enough to buy it again! If you purchase it try the Salisbury steaks. It's so easy to make and a family favorite.

I believe this is a great cookbook for several reasons: (1) The ingredients are easy to find & I'm likely to have them on hand; (2) The recipes are usually easy to prepare; (3) It teaches how to eat healthy and make simple, healthy substitutes; (4) Most recipes produce excellent tasting, hearty meals my husband enjoys.

Good
