Good Eats, Good Health!

My husband and I spent the summer exercising in our pool with other retired teachers who are health conscious because of our ages, orthopedic problems, etc. One of our group has diabetes as well as congestive heart problems and needs to lose a great deal of weight, so she was particularly interested in the Eating Well magazine, with it's index of nutritional information, when she saw it at our house. Later,when I spied the advertisement for the cookbook, I immediately bought some and stashed them away to send to our grown children to prepare for the holidays with their families, since all of them live in areas where farmers' markets abound. A family and friends who eat together stay healthy together!

Comes from a food editor and a doctor who team up to provide an emphasis on seasonal, fresh ingredie

Any who would make the most of farmer's market fresh produce will relish EatingWell in Season: The Farmer's Market Cookbook. It comes from a food editor and a doctor who team up to provide an emphasis on seasonal, fresh ingredients and menus. Chapters are organized by produce type, not season, making it especially quick and easy to locate recipes such as Pecan-Crusted Turkey Tenderloin with Grilled Peach Salsa under 'Peaches', or 'Fennel & Orange Salad with Roasted Pistachios' under 'Fennel'. A 'must' for any general lending library.

Great Gift!

Got this for a friend who is getting married, and Moving to a farm town in OK.

The book for people who want a little more local in their life

I feel inclined to write this review because I found this book absolutely fascinating. The opening of the book does a very good job of explain why you should listen to its advice. The authors give plenty of useful tid bits that have come in very handy not only in the farmers market but also in the produce section in the supermarket. The included recipes are well sized and appropriately portioned. They are healthy without tasting like health food. The pictures are gorgeous and I have wanted to try every recipe that has one. The recipes are a great way to experience new ingredients that you can only find in a good farmers market. In my humble opinion this book is worth the purchase price if you only read the first chapters about the benefits (and hype) of local and organic produce. My wife and I purchased the Eating Well for two along with this one and we are considering buying more from this series because we love every dish we have tried so far. I hope this helps, Happy Shopping
