Book description
From the Queen of American cookery comes a fabulous collection of
recipes - all 500 calories or less, and all big on flavour!
Martha Stewart knows it's not enough for home cooks to prepare tasty
weeknight meals in a flash - they also need to be healthy and
appealing for the whole family. Martha Stewart's Everyday Light
features delicious, low-fat recipes that are made with accessible
ingredients, and each recipe is accompanied by beautiful colour
photography to keep you inspired and cooking light every day of the
week.
The recipes, which are organised seasonally, include salads, soups,
stews, main courses, easy sides, desserts, and more. You'll find
slimmed-down favourites, such as Beef Chilli, Chicken Parmesan,
and deceptively skinny Chocolate-Chunk Brownies, plus new
delights such as Spicy Chicken Stir-Fry with Peanuts and
Salmon Burgers with Yoghurt-Dill Sauce. With basic low-fat
cooking techniques (stir-frying, cooking in parchment, grilling), tips
on the 10 best ways to boost flavour without adding fat (including
marinades, dressings, herbs and spices), and simple tools for
low-calorie cooking (cast-iron skillets and grill pans and steamer
baskets), Martha Stewart's Everyday Light helps you cook the
kind of delicious, healthy food you really want to eat!
