Summary: Nice pictures but...
Comment: With all of the 100's of cookbooks out there, don't bother with this one. The recipes are uninspired (although the pictures do look nice.)
My major disappointment with this book was the super moist chocolate cake. I love almost anything with sugar in it, and her cake was nearly inedible. It was rubbery, and had both an odd texture and an odd flavor.

Summary: Light and Easy!!
Comment: I was looking for a healthy cookbook with quick and easy recipes and I stumbled upon this one. It is excellent!! She includes a lot of easy to understand information and tips in the beginning of the book. The recipes are super easy and don't taste like you're eating diet or health food. Specifically, "The Gazpacho Monterey" and "Spicy Potato Tacos" are delicious. I've even tried a few seafood recipes, and really liked the "Oven-Baked Catfish". I also tried the "Roasted Basil-Pork Medallions with Red Grapes" and was impressed. I never really thought of pork as healthy, but all the meat recipes in the book use the leanest cuts of meat and aren't prepared in heavy, fatty sauces. As for my favorite chapter, dessert, I found the "Triple Raspberry Brownies" are great anytime when I want to indulge. And I recently made the "Berries with Champagne Sabayon" for company and everyone was impressed. Great book overall!!

Summary: The Complete Set
Comment: I completed my set of Sandra Lee books and this one was a surprise. I adore the recipes and tired of the chefs adding tons of butter and sour cream-this one is a relief.
My cancer nurse recommended this one to me & glad she did. Chemo exhausts me & I am able to shop for these easy recipes with the recipe cards & then the photos inspire me to eat.

Summary: Another Sandra Lee Hit!
Comment: I love this cookbook! I love Sandra Lee and her show, Semi-Homemade Cooking. I tape her show daily and I have a few of her other cookbooks. I love the idea of light recipes. I am trying to eat great food, but still enoy great flavor. Many cookbooks have "light" or "diet" recipes that include tons of ingredients, take hours to make/prepare, or have really expensive ingredients. Not to mention they often taste gross! This book has lots of ideas for great tasting food that is not going to kill your budget or your schedule. The recipes are practical and easy. I have tried a few of the recipes and I really enjoyed them. My husband didn't even realize he was eating "light" food. I had some friends over and made a few of the recipes and they all asked for the recipes afterward. My favorites include the mango and black bean salsa, sweet potato fries, the pizza recipes, and pears with almond and chantilly cream. I have to admit though, being a huge dessert person, I wish there were a few more light dessert recipes that didn't include liquor.
