One of the last cookbooks you'll ever need Jan 05, 2011
By W. Luckey
"healthcare analyst"
This comes from the publishers of Whole Living magazine, part of the Marth Stewart empire. The magazine focuses on holistic (wholistic) living that seeks to improve the physical, emotional, spiritual, social and environmental imbalances in our lives. In practical terms, this means yoga, stress reduction, healthy eating, spiritual tranquility....you get the idea. Although I don't buy into all of this, we could all stand for more of it. This cookbook focuses on the healthy eating part. It contains beautiful pictures, straightforward recipes(not too many ingredients that are not too difficult to obtain) and some practical advice. Expect recipes with beets, salmon, nuts, eggs, healthy grains (e.g., quinoa) and more. I enjoy cooking and have a bookshelf of cookbooks, including Martha's two previous cookbooks. This book has the healthiest recipes of the group, but all her books have great recipes. There are few things put out by Martha Stewart living that aren't well conceived (no, I'm not a paid spokesperson).
There is an arm of nutrition research that is headed in the direction of this type of cooking: limiting wheat (gluten), limited saturated fat (no or minimal dairy, beef, pork or even fowl), low salt and sugar, incorporating healthy oils (nuts, olive oil), minimal processing, etc. Much of this is vegan cooking. Say goodbye to the Heart Attack Grill. If you have Celiac's disease, many of the recipes will suit you. This would also be good for people who have genetically related inflammatory-type diseases (e.g., Crohn's, ulcerative colitis, arthritis, diabetes, etc.). Anecdotally, this type of diet has also been used with autistic children with some success.
Want to live to be 137? This is a great introduction into this type of cooking. If you are looking for a start into a truly healthy lifestyle, I recommend this text.

On My Way to Eating Less Meat Jan 14, 2011
By K. Aszman
"KBA"
I am really enjoying "Power Foods" and can highly recommend it for people who are interested in adding more vegetables and grains to their diet. If that is your goal you will find this book very informative. The photos are beautiful. Every recipe has a photo which I personally think makes for a better cookbook. There are recipes that do incorporate meat, fish and poultry but they are few and far between.
I especially like the section on healthy snacks. Snacking is my downfall because I usually grab something that is not good for me while I'm working on dinner or in the afternoon when I need an energy boost. This book offers some very delicious options for snacking. Granted, I'm going to have to plan ahead to be sure they are ready when I am, but I've made that commitment and am loving it.
I love to cook but these recipes are for cooks of all levels of experience. You don't have to be a chef in the kitchen to whip up a batch of tasty beet chips. I'm really enjoying this book and think most people who are interested in eating healthier will too.Power Foods: 150 Delicious Recipes with the 38 Healthiest Ingredients

A great go to cookbook Feb 21, 2011
By The Olive Branch As a Whole Living reader, I was looking forward to purchasing this book. After looking over the reviews, however, I felt discouraged and decided not to buy it. How fortunate that I received it as a Valentine's Day gift, however! This is a great go to cookbook and an excellent value for the price. Since we got it, we've made 10 or so recipes and each one has been great. Yes, the recipes are simple, but delicious and satisfying. I really like how most recipes have only a few ingredients, many of which I already have, so it's a great resource for planning meals ahead of time.

Healthy, Unusual, Delicious Feb 20, 2011
By Ladibug I love this cookbook. I am a graduate of Le Cordon Bleu Cooking School in Scottsdale, Arizona. I have always had great interest in gourmet type cooking but now healthy is what I am looking for and found it in this great cookbook. Not only are these recipes healthy but they are also delicious! Sure there have been one or two recipes that are not my style but the majority of the recipes are wonderful.
In order to evaluate a cookbook, you need to try MANY of the recipes and not just one or two. I have tried 12 out of 150 recipes so far which isn't that many and only one has fallen flat (Spiced Nuts and Seeds) and that was because it was bitter with the quinoa. The saponins in the outer coating of the quinoa are bitter. Perhaps the quinoa I bought hadn't been properly washed to remove it or it should be cooked and dried as was recommended for another recipe in the book. It might not be the recipe but the preparation of the quinoa that I bought that caused the problem. My favorite recipes so far are Quinoa, Apricot and Nut Clusters, Kiwifruit Summer Rolls, Spicy Sweet Potato Soup, Sablefish (didn't find sablefish and used snapper instead)in Tomato Saffron Stew, Roasted Salmon and Parsnips with Ginger, Shrimp with Kiwi Lime Relish and Berry Grunt. I am looking forward to trying more of the recipes.
Beautiful photos, excellent information on recipe nutrition values, great information at the front of the book on what each power food does for you. A great cookbook!

This food is really good! Apr 01, 2011
By V. Pantalone
"I'm no expert, but..."
I'm slowly working my way through this book in no particular order. The "autumn greens soup" is fabulous and really, really good for you! My husband loved the "quinoa, apricot and nut clusters" (I added chocolate chips) though they were a little bit of work so he won't be getting them too often. I NEVER expected to love the "oranges with olives and parsley", but I had a bunch of oranges and parsley that I needed to use up and, WOW, what a strange and delicious combination of flavors! The "paprika shrimp with walnuts" was also delicious. Everyone loved the "wild and brown rice salad" I made to clean out my pantry and the "kale slaw with peanut dressing" that I brought to a party. And, for desert, try the "lemmon cream with blackberries" - amazing and, nearly, non-fat! I'd write more, but these are the only recipes I've tried so far and, honestly, loved them all. Even if you aren't especially crazy about healthy eating 24/7, but you know you must, you won't be disappointed by this book. On the other hand, if you're strictly the "meat and potatoes" type , it will not be for you.
