Book Reviews of The EatingWell Healthy in a Hurry Cookbook: 150 Delicious Recipes for Simple, Everyday Suppers in 45 Minutes or Less
Book Review: A cookbook you'll actually use!
Summary: 5 Stars
My first reaction to this book was one of delight. I thought, this is one cookbook I'm actually going to use and not just read for the pleasure of it! Time would have to tell if that prediction would come to pass.
I've now had this book in my kitchen for over 6 weeks now and every week's meal plan has featured at least two recipes from this book. The "Healthy in a Hurry" concept is an excellent one for modern mothers struggling to prepare wholesome meals with little time to spend in that short window between the end of the workday and the 6:30pm hockey practice. As the book's subtitle suggests, the recipes are appropriate for quick and simple everyday suppers. There is not much here that you'd want to serve for special occasions, but the book is a great resource for an almost endless variety of tasty weekday meals that can be whipped up in minutes.
The author takes his inspiration from a wide variety of culinary traditions. Meals are inspired by Korean, Thai, Japanese, Middle Eastern, Italian, Southwestern, Indian, Greece and North African cuisines. Approximately two thirds of the 150 recipes are accompanied by full-color photos. Each recipe provides information such as prep and cook time and nutrition information, as well as stating whether the recipe is high in fiber, low in carbs, or appropriate for a "healthy weight" lifestyle. "Nutrition Bonuses" are provided for recipes that contain 15% or more of the daily value of specific nutrients.
Aside from the recipes, the book is divided into helpful sections that can be useful in meal planning such as stocking your pantry, seasonal menu suggestions and vegetarian meals. Three sections provide ideas, not strictly recipes, for sauces, sides and desserts "in a hurry." Special indexes help you to select recipes for healthy weight, 30 minutes or less, and kid-friendly meals.
Some of the recipes we have enjoyed are: Vietnamese-Style Beef & Noodle Broth, Grilled Eggplant Panini, Turkey with Blueberry Pan Sauce, Chipotle Flank Steak Tacos with Pineapple Salsa, Tangerine Veal Medallions and Adobo Pork & Potato Packets.
A selection of delicious recipes that are on my list to try soon are: Spiced Pork Chops & Peaches, Grilled Filet Mignon with Vegetable Kabobs, Korean-Style Steak & Lettus Wraps, Shrimp Enchiladas Verde, Turkey & Balsamic Onion Quesadillas and Express Shrimp & Sausage Jambalaya.
