Rodale Books, 2008

Excellent book for families
This is a great book. I've tried many and not only are the recipes high fiber, low sugar, and low fat but my kids (4 and 8) thought they tasted great. My husband loved the marinara sauce and the "new meatballs". I may be an experienced cook but I found the recipes ...

Jeff Hertzberg, Zoe Francois

Thomas Dunne Books, 2007

Great introduction to bread baking
Although I've enjoyed baking for years, I always found baking bread to be intimidating, until I bought this book. I dove right in, and using their recipes had great results almost immediately. But I think one has to keep it in perspective. Their technique will not ...

Giada De Laurentiis

Clarkson Potter, 2008

Good addition to the kichen library
I have earlier acquired and used one of Giada De Laurentiis' cookbooks, "Everyday Pasta," which was jammed with good pasta recipes. None that I ever tried turned out to be a dud. So, I took a look at another of her books, "Giada's Kitchen." Again, this is a fine ...
