the greening of American cuisine
I love spa cookbooks because they are filled with inviting recipes that can entice high-powered clients to pay thousands of dollars to starve themselves. With books such as The Golden Door Cookbook, I can stay at home and prepare nutritious yet luxurious meals, and then cheat without anyone knowing. And think of all the money I save! Seriously, this is a very well thought-out low-fat cookbook from a chef who has had years of experience feeding demanding dieters. The recipes are so delicious, you don't realize that as you are eating well, you are also eating healthfully. —Judith Choate
