Cooking Light Weeknight: 57 Essential Recipes to Eat Smart, Be Fit, Live Well

When you buy a cookbook, you never know what you're going to get. Too often I've picked one up at the local bookstore, only to get it home and realize that it requires me to go to a specialty market for the ingredients. This one is no such book! It has some delicious and fast recipes with easy to obtain ingredients (ones that I often already have). Heck, the recipes are so easy that even my husband can cook them! (Not that men can't cook. He just can't cook.)

I have yet to try a recipe from this cookbook that has not been requested by my family to be used again.

This is one of my favorite books that I have actually used. I have many other cooking books that I have not really used. I scan through them and never really followed a recipe. This book is great. Lots of healthy recipes inside and it has a little bit of everything as far as fish, beef, chicken, etc. What is great about the book too is the nutrition information. Every recipe has its own picture so you know how your dish is supposed to come out. There are also lots of tips and ideas on making and preparing dishes faster and easier. Great book!

I have a million cookbooks, and am a food network addict. This is by far the best cookbook. It has pics to go with every recipe as well. There aren't a huge amount of recipes, but what they have is all delicious. I don't think theyre extremely FAST to make though. Some still have a lot of prep work. But that's fine for me.... I make some of these recipes when I have company and it's always a huge hit! I definitely think everyone should own this cookbook!

I am a working mom and eating well is very hard to do when you have to please the palates of a trucker husband and an 18 month old too. I have made about 50% of the recipes in the book since I have bought it and I have not found one we didnt like yet. They are fast and not short on flavor.
