The Best and Lightest Food Network Recipe Book Review

The Best and Lightest 150 healthy recipes for breakfast, lunch and dinner from the editors of the Food Network Magazine.
I was very excited to open this cookbook and find something to make for dinner.  The pictures are colorful and print is large enough so it makes it easier to read.  Each recipe has a beautiful displayed plate of what you have to look forward to when done.
The one problem with this cook book is that it’s not for the average middle class family house hold.  I found that most all the recipes had ingredients that no one would have on hand.  You have to make a list and go to the store before you can make most of these recipes.  I am one who likes to grab a recipe book and be able to find something I can make with the ingredients I all ready have on hand.  I think that most of the recipes in this book are on the more costly end.  I am always trying to watch our budget and most all these recipe really aren’t practical for us.  This is a cookbook I am afraid will be collecting dust on the shelf because of this.
But on the other hand if you are a gourmet cook this book is for you!  It has very unique recipes to make and with the colorful picture of the finished meal you should have no problem replicating it!
Like the title states the recipes for the most part tend to have healthy ingredients. I am sure everyone will enjoy using the book.  I am just a simpler cook.
