Just first rate! by 3turnip (here) 5 Stars

If you think heart healthy eating has to be bland or with no variety, tyr this. There are a wide variety of familiar dishes, such as chili, stews and fish dishes. Like one of the other reviewers, my copy is starting to fall apart also. I had gone through a stack of healthy eating cookbooks and this one is the best!

Great Food, Poor Bookbinding. by H. Bahr (Oklahoma City, OK USA) 4 Stars

The recipes are excellent, but the cookbook itself is falling apart. Maybe because I use it so often. You will get better tasting results from this cookbook than from many of the other heart healthy cookbooks. I wish the publisher had included pictures of the dishes. This book has healthy versions of many of my favorite dishes from childhood, including pork chops.

My husband had a heart attack so I bought this book to cook foods for him that I thought would be more healthy for him to eat. I don't know that much about nutrition, but I do know that these are some of the best tasting recipes that I have ever cooked...from any cookbook of any kind...and I have been cooking for a long time! I would recommend this book to anyone, heart problem or not!
