Book Talk:
Just about everyone loves food. Eating it is wonderful. This book shares some amazing recipes that are easy to make and stress the use of fresh produce.Spring Rolls, Tabouleh, Chick-Pea Burgers with Mango Salsa, and Eggless Ceasar Salad are just a few of the yummy recipes waiting to be tried.
(While you are talking, hold open the book and show the beautiful full-color pictures of the completed dishes.)
The directions are clear, concise and easy to follow. The author also includes helpful information, such as how to pick the best produce, and how to slice a mango. The recipes all require the use of a sharp knife and cutting board, so if you want to try them, make certain that you know how to safely handle a knife before you start!
Bon Appetit!

Reviewer's Note:
We now own this book. We cooked our way through the book. I tried tabouleh for the first time in my life, and it was amazing! I have many new favorite recipes from this book. Many of her recipes are healthier recipes than the more traditional recipes (my Mom's) that I have been using for a while now. (The meatloaf and Ceasar Salad recipes pop to mind.)
I think most anyone could follow the recipes, but you do need to make certain that whoever is doing the slicing and dicing is familiar with a knife. Many school districts have now cut their Home Economics programs, and we have a generation of kids who aren't familiar with how to safely slice produce without slicing off a finger. If you're going to use this book with your kids, invest some time in working on knife handling skills before you set them loose.
I also think this would be a great book for anyone who is moving out on their own for the first time and needs some easy to follow, healthy recipes to get started with.
