MORE HEALTHY HOMESTYLE COOKING

In this long-awaited sequel to her million-copy bestseller Healthy Homestyle Cooking, Evelyn Tribole proves once and for all that home cooking can be just like Grandma used to make-- minus the fat and fuss! Pull up your chair and settle in for another round of home cooked meals so delicious, you may not even guess that they are good for you too! Evelyn Tribole's first Healthy Homestyle collection sold over a million copies. Now shes back with 200 all-new recipes that are even easier to prepare but just as satisfying. With chapters on meatless main dishes, salads, appetizers, side dishes, and a range of pastabilities, you will never be at a loss at mealtime again.

An award-winning dietitian, Tribole reviews the basics of nutrition and clears up the confusion surrounding carbohydrates, sodium, fatty acids, and phytochemicals. She also reveals her insider secrets to recipe makeovers, both tried-and-true and brand new. Here's a hint: Straight substitutions don't always work. (Anyone who has spread fat-free cream cheese on a bagel knows the truth in this.) Lots of reliable fat-saving swaps and flavor-boosting tricks are out there, and Tribole knows them all.

Reviews:
"In this follow-up to her 1994 bestseller Healthy Homestyle Cooking, Tribole continues to teach readers how to lighten up a varied assortment of family-pleasing dishes by using a smart collection of replacement ingredients and a refreshing dash of common sense. Don't cut out the mascarpone and cocoa so essential for tiramisu, she urges; pair them with fat-free cream cheese and sponge cake, swirled with frozen light whipped topping. Appetizers, entrees, "fixings," desserts and baked goods have all been revamped the Tribole way, and she tells exactly how she did it in two information-packed introductory chapters (one featuring helpful "conversion" charts - change coconut flakes to coconut extract and save 337 calories!). Each recipe has a "nutritional scorecard" totaling fat and calories before and after; tricks for making changes (such as using fruit puree for shortening in cakes); and a complete nutritional analysis. Some selections are naturally light and easy - Broiled Sole with Olive Topping or Portobello Pizzas (the caps serve as "crusts"). Others, like Chicken Kiev, demand more tinkering. If the goal is to have your Cheesy Green Enchiladas and eat them, too, then Tribole's methods will be great weapons in the battle against the bulge." - Publishers Weekly
