Reviews

It's easy to dismiss this recent cookbook from Eating Well magazine as just another culinary "lite" weight. Yet it not only translates forbidden favorites into more healthy recipes, it also provides an abundance of cooking tips for those who truly care about kitchen preparation. One other bonus: the editors don't drone on and on about the benefits of a plant-based diet, and they readily admit that comparisons between high- and low-fat dishes are spurious. To their credit, too, are the acknowledgments of reader queries and contributions. Some of the more than 200 recipes to enjoy include quiche Lorraine light, nectarine raspberry coffee cake, wonton chips, corn pudding, Swiss chard and wild mushroom lasagna, roast chicken with guava glaze, and chocolate meringue drop cookies. Each contains a nutritional analysis per serving, with the net result being lighter, maybe gentler meals. Barbara Jacobs
