The Food Lover’s Healthy Habits Cookbook, by the editors of Cooking Light magazine (Oxmoor House, $24.95), offers more than 250 recipes paired with lifestyle changes and a 12-month plan for carrying them out.
A solid how-to for people seeking a healthier lifestyle, the emphasis here is on cooking at home and incorporating more fruits, vegetables and grains into your diet.
Cooking techniques and introductions to potentially unfamiliar ingredients, such as edamame (soybeans) and the ancient grain farro, are peppered with recipes for dishes such as oatmeal pancakes, the Middle Eastern red pepper dip called muhammara and cinnamon-laced beef tagine with butternut squash.
