Synopses & Reviews
Food Network host Ellie Krieger is best known for her show Healthy Appetite, which also aired in reruns on the Cooking Channel for years, and she makes frequent appearances on national morning shows as one of Americas leading nutrition experts. Ellie has long been loved for her no-nonsense (yet delicious) approach to healthy eating. She is the first to recognize that people wont succeed at eating right if they feel that theyre being deprived. Thats why Ellies recipes often start with favorite foods and familiar recipes, and then she works her magic to remake them without all the fat and cholesterol. This book will be no exception, including 150 recipes, like Parmesan Chicken Breasts and Goat Cheese Frittata (plus no-guilt desserts), that can be prepared any day of the week, even after a long day at work. As always with Ellies recipes, there will be minimal fuss about cooking techniques or hard-to-find ingredients, so people can stay focused on eating well.
