balanced meal ideas

Really good book if you want to expand your macro-biotic cooking repertoire. There are nice references to the thermal nature of foods ( heating/ or cooling,Yin/Yang), that are helpful for those who want to create more balanced meals for their body type or the season. (No, I don't mean the food pyramid! hee hee ) A nice addition to a natural cooking library.

Great macrobiotic book!

This book contains excellent background on macrobiotics and the why/why nots of the ingredients used. The recipes are diverse and very good. If you've ever thought that a macrobiotic diet would be boring and flavorless, you really need this book. This is by far my favorite of all the macrobiotic books I've read.
