Product Description 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.

not impressed July 16, 2008 Andreea C. Capata (chicago) 0 out of 3 found this review helpful
received the book a while ago,was very excited to try some tasty low fat,low cal receipes...to be honest the book is under my expectations.not too many pictures,which are important for the presentation of the dish,some dishes seem to involve a lot of ingredients,thought it was a little bit simpler and helpful in cooking and dieting.would not have bought it had i had a chance to look through it before my order.
Great Recipe Book July 14, 2008 B. Sharp (Farmington, AR United States) Excellent cook book with lot's of Ellie's slimmed down recipes that still taste delicious! A must buy if you want to eat healthy, but still enjoy flavors.
Great Value July 3, 2008 S. Baker (Millersburg, OH) This is a great companion to the Small Changes Big Results book. If you're looking for a variety of recipes that are good for you (not the same old salads and grilled meat), this is the book for you. Nothing seems impossible to make in this cookbook.
Healthy Alternatives June 19, 2008 Valerie Usowski The book was enjoyable to read, the pictures were nice, and the recipes were palatable. Learning how to substitute healthier ingredients for the ones we 'crave' is essential to losing weight and having a healthier self. Ellie gives good nutritional information and the tips are valid. Good without a lot of hype.
Delicious and Easy--My Kind of Cookbook June 19, 2008 Book Nut (Philadelphia, PA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This has probably been the best cookbook purchase I've ever made. All of the recipes that I have tried (about a good 1/3 of the book already) have turned out wonderfully and best of all I--a novice cook--have been able to actually make them. And lest you think that the recipes are geared only to the amateur, my fiance, who is quite the foodie, also turns to this cookbook first when we are trying to figure out what to make for the week. Especially recommended are the home-made breakfast bars (totally yummy, though we add dark chocolate chips), roast chicken, stuffed peppers. Highly recommended!
