Healthy Calendar Diabetic Cooking: A Full Year of Simple, Menus and Easy Recipes
From Publishers Weekly Dietician Rondinelli and chef Bucko make cooking five healthy dinners a weekfor an entire yearlook like a no-brainer in this simple cookbook. They divide their book by month, and within each month, they give four weeks worth of main courses (presumably for dinner, though they could certainly make nice lunches). A grocery list begins each week, followed by the recipes, which generally fall under the "continental" umbrella, with Mediterranean, Latin, Asian and other influences. Although no dish requires more than four steps, and prep times range from 5 to 20 minutes per recipe, there are plenty of intriguing dinner options, such as Three-Pepper Pasta Salad with Goat Cheese, or Chicken with Portabello Tofu Sauce. Rondinelli and Bucko also feature one dessert for each month, which are the books weakest link, as they often take the easy way out: Cherry Tarts, for example, require canned "light" cherry pie topping. Sidebars give further information on ingredients and advice for alternate preparation methods, and every recipe includes the dishs nutritional information.
