Rice Bowl Recipes: Over 100 Tasty One-Dish Meals Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I picked up this book on a trip to Japan and didn't really expect much out of it. To my surprise, it's become one of my all-time favourite cookbooks. It's a great way to start learning about Japanese home cooking. There are also some great recipes for Korean and Chinese dishes. Every recipe I've tried is quite tasty and easy to prepare. It's also great when cooking for 1-2 people or when you're on the go. For years I've thought rice was a side bowl of dry and bland grains. Well, no more! Get yourself a decent rice cooker and get ready for a new way of preparing wholesome, quick, and delicious meals.

Raw Food In Ten Minutes: How to make the best Raw Organic Meals in just 10 Minutes Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My partner and I have have tried a handful of recipes in this book and not one took 10 minutes or less. But I get that he's compiled a bunch of recipes that don't require 12 hours in a dehydrator or soaking nuts for 6 hours.
I've found that some of his recipes are heavy on the olive oil, which doesn't sit well with my stomach. He also uses a lot of miso which can make your food rather salty - DO NOT add the salt his recipes call for until the end, then add to taste. It almost seems to me that he doesn't measure when he is prepping his own food and when he put this recipe book together he just kind of guessed what the measurements should be. Many of the different items are texturally the same. Some recipes are heavy on the nuts as well.
This may be a good beginners book but by no means should this book be used as an indicator of what raw food can be...this is not a horrible book, don't expect it to look like a cookbook that you buy off the shelf. It looks almost handmade, with some of the pictures being heavily pixelated. This book does give you a decent foundation of how to start making raw foods and once you get that down you can just use his recipes as a reference. If you do order this book I would suggest going lighter then he suggests on many of his measurements - remember, you can always add more!

Balanced Eating Made Easy with the Food Balance Wheel: A How-To Guide For Quickly Planning Balanced Meals Around Your Own Favorite Healthy Food Choices Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I loved this book because it was easy to understand and it wasn't just another diet book. The concept of the "Food Balance Wheel" helped me realize what kinds of foods I should be eating lots of every day (vs. what kinds I shouldn't eat so much of.) I can eat all the foods I enjoy ... just have to remember to keep the "wheel" balanced!
I would recommend this book to the reader who is looking for a new concept in balanced, healthy eating. The book is a quick read (only 50 pages), has lots of colorful illustrations and color-coded tips scattered throughout. Overall, an easy to read little book with a new concept about balanced eating.
