 The Essential EatingWell Cookbook
Good Carbs | Good Fats | Great Flavors

Edited by Patsy Jamieson

This long-awaited collection of more than 350 recipes represents favorites from EatingWell, The Magazine of Food & Health, that have migrated to the top of an elite heap of new and classic dishes now numbering well into the thousands.

     These are the exciting new recipes our own staff members take home at night alongside the time-tested winners that dedicated readers call and write to request over and over again. All are freshly updated, with improved nutritional analyses and an eye to today's fast-evolving nutritional guidelines.
  
    Within these pages you'll find clear, simple and often very quick recipes. You'll also find a unique Healthy Weight-Loss Index that identifies which recipes fit into particular diet guidelines, rating them on overall health (calories, carbohydrates and fats), fiber content, and which recipes best address the needs of those on low-carbohydrate weight-loss plans. Losing weight no longer has to mean sacrificing fine dining.

     Patsy Jamieson has a large and devoted following among cooks who demand recipes that call for healthy ingredients, clear instructions and that can be counted on to work every time. She has hosted popular cooking segments on CNN, Good Morning, America, the Today show, and the Food Network. She is a graduate of La Varenne Ecole de Cuisine in Paris and has overseen the recipes in EatingWell Magazine since 1990.
