This book is amazing. I wasn't really sold on it when I first got it, but once I started going through the recipes I actually found a recipe for a Thai Chicken Soup that I have been looking for forever. I am so thrilled. I love all the salad and soup recipes and plan to try all of them, as they are exactly what I like to prepare.
Bonnie Stern is well-known in Canada for her culinary voice, and what pleases me is that her recipes are recommended by the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada, which is a bonus! There are many excellent recipes in this book, including the calorie counts of each. My mouth was watering as I read the recipes and most ingredients are fairly easy to find in your local grocery store. This book is my favorite "new" cookbook!!

The recipes look simple and tasty. The ingredients won't send you all over town. I appreciate the tips in the sidebars and the stories.
