Cooking Light 2006 Annual Recipes (Cooking Light Annual ... (ISBN 0848730127)

A year's worth of the best light dishes:
COOKING LIGHT ANNUAL RECIPES 2006 gathers a year's worth of Cooking Light Magazine dishes, from Spicy Pickled Beans and Breakfast Sausage Casserole to a Chicken Broccoli Casserole. A centerfold of color photos enhances sidebars of information and a appealing primer on dishes which have been 'lightened' for the new year. Both are outstanding recommendations.

An Excellent Healthy Source:
While this is a summary of the magazine's recipes it is well organized and easy to reference. Easy to follow instructions are a definite plus. For once, cooking without a degree in rocket science being required.

Great:
I never believed that I would have enough patience for cooking. That is until I came across Cooking Light at my friends place a few months ago... She let me take it home to try some of the recipes that I found interesting. What happened next? I actually stopped going out for dinner day by day and started cooking on my own. The meals that I create now are not only tasty, but they also let me keep my weight within limits, as I am now in charge of what is going into the meals that will land on my dish. This magazine helped me change my eating habits, indeed. Also recommended The Best Of Cooking Light

Great recipes, inaccurate index:
The recipes are great, but impossible to find unless you are thumbing through the book. Oxmoor is still publishing the book to reflect the monthly magazines, not food categories. I still have yet to find where the edame recipe is.

Easy to follow recipies.:
I am a big fan of Cooking Light. The recipies are easy to follow. You may want to check the on-line reviews for a recipe you are going to try. The suggestions might be helpful. The only problem I had with purchasing this cookbook was the shipping time. When ordering from the Amazon warehouse (even if shipping one state away) it takes an unbelievably LONG time for them to process and ship!!!
