Summary: Fantastic southwestern health food.
Comment: I have been searching for quite some time for a southwestern-style cookbook that is health-conscious...unfortunately, most Mexican food and Southwestern food is not healthy by nature. This cookbook gives me the best of both worlds.
Additionally, I agree with the other review on the research information at the beginning of the book...wonderful. I've never seen such an abundance of information packed into about 40 pages of helpful-hints.

Summary: Great Cookbook for health-conscious non-vegetarians
Comment: I found _The Healthy Table_ completely by accident ... I wish I had found it earlier. Cookbooks seem to be divided into two camps: super healthy, super crunchy vegetarian cookbooks (with mostly inedible dishes), or super rich, super fat, decidedly insalubrious gourmet or ten-minute dinner cookbooks. This cookbook combines the best of both, leaving out the worst -- the recipes are easy and satisfying, but also very healthy.
Mainly, I was impressed with the amount of medical and dietary research that lay behind the recipes: _The Healthy Table_ most definitely is NOT "Grandma's favorite recipes for people who don't expect to live beyond 45 anyways." Nor is it a mass-produced hospital cookbook, written in a laboratory. The author brings her personal touch to the work: faced with the task of cooking for a family afflicted with abnormally high cholesterol, she spent years researching diets and health, in order to cook food that would be both satisfying and healthy for her kids. (She comes across as the sort of person I'd like to meet for coffee some day). Her heartfelt dedication shows, and her work has paid off.
After a month of using it, I can safely say it's one of the best all-purpose cookbooks I have on my shelf. It's helped me to eliminate the garbage from my diet, without resorting to subsistence on nuts and berries in the forest. I highly recommend it.

Summary: Wonderful for the health-conscious and gourmet-seekers alike
Comment: I have now tried 36 of the recipes in the book from the Jamaican Salmon Tacos, to the Tangy Cilantro Pesto. It has all been wonderful, and has renewed our interest in cooking. As an added bonus, the cookbook also contains about 35 pages of health-related research for those on restricted diets. Thank you Janet Taylor
