Too many errors in the Nook version. There are way too many ingredient lists with the first few piled on top of each other making it impossible to know what the ingredients are and thus making the recipe unusable. I have to buy the hardcover now.

I had never read through a cookbook before I got this book because I had never found them that interesting. This cookbook was so fun to that I read it all the way through. It is colorful, full of interesting tidbits of information, and designed really well. When I finished I ordered 2 of their other books for my cookbook library as well. Though not every single recipe is a favorite, I have developed a long list of tasty, great favorites that my family loves and that are often a special treat for guests. It is great if you are just trying to eat a little healthier and you enjoy trying new things.
This book also makes a great gift for someone who is learning how to cook, as there is a good variety of things they can choose from never and the recipes are simple, easy to follow, and use everyday kind of food. No really bizarre ingredients our labor-intensive time wasters here. It is a great book.

"LooneySpoons" Book Review
disclaimer: I received this book from Hay House Inc. in exchange for as honest review and all opinions are my own.
Mommy in Ga says:
I am a mom of 4 so I am always looking for new ways to shed a few pounds!! The baby will be 4 in may and I swear people only accept "It's from my pregnancy" as an excuse for so long!!
I saw this book in the Hay House Book Nook and thought it looked like a fun and easy solution to the problem I have! There are tons of recipes and they all have really fun names. I was trying to think of ways to tie Easter into this post and ran across:
Deviled in Disguise (your not so traditional deviled egg)
and
Shanks for the Memory (old-fashioned, smokey ham and split pea soup)
thinking they would tie in to Easter nicely for the mere fact you can use your leftover ham and boiled eggs to do these!
These are only 2 of the 325+ ("I can't believe these are healthy") recipes in this book and I just want to tell yall, almost all of them sound delicious and the motto the authors, Janet and Greta Podleski, is "Lick your Lips and Shrink your hips!"
This cook book covers your:
appetizers (get appy)
Salads (Become a beleafer)
Soups (Ladle Gaga)
Vegetarian (Eats Without Meats)
Pasta (When Ya Hasta have Pasta)
Chicken (Chicken Worth Pickin)
Your Fish ( A fine Kettle Of Fish)
Beef and Pork ( It's a Meat Market)
Ground Meat (Ground Keepers)
Sides (The Bright Sides)
and of course you have to have:
Sweets (Bring Home The Bakin')
These are just a few of the fun Play on words' that they do, I was reading some of these titles and actually laughed out loud.
The recipes taste good, are good for you and best of all, help you keep an eye on your figure without losing the flavor!!!
Hope you will keep this cookbook in mind when you are in need of a new one!!
Also you can check out the Janet and Greta website here for more recipes and info. !
