Book Review: The Health Cookbook by the Australian Women's Weekly - Page 2

I really liked the smaller 20cm size of this book, which makes it easier to work with than a large size book, but it's still large enough to make a nice gift book and present a great accompanying image for each recipe. It isn’t all savoury either. There are delicious desserts that are healthy enough for a main course, like the berry-muesli baked apples, or the homemade lime, grapefruit or blood orange sorbet.

The key thing with healthy eating is to make it a regular habit. If you eat in the way that this book suggests, you’ll just be healthier, and it certainly won’t feel like a diet or privation in any way. Colourful, easy to make food that is as attractive as it is delicious. What else could you ask for in a cookbook?

The book can be purchased at: Abbeys Bookshop.
