I was interested in Kosher by Design Lightens Up as, though I'm not Jewish, I've long been intrigued by kosher cooking. However, I did not hold out much hope for it because I don't cook light. We don't do diet anything in this house, we make full fat meals and desserts and simply eat smaller portions. But I have to say I was truly impressed with Kosher by Design Lightens Up. I was immediately drawn in by the large, lovely photographs. I love to see what a dish should l ook like upon completion and every recipe boasts a photograph. After flipping through the photos I decided on a handful of recipes to try over the following weeks. Let me tell you, none of them disappointed. I was pleased with each and every dish and dessert. My favorites would have to be the Garlic Burgers and Green Tea-Applesauce Cake. Of course with over 140 recipes I'm still cooking my way through, who knows what new favorite may present itself next? What does Kosher by Design Lightens Up have to offer? How about Tex-Mex Turkey Meatballs, Miso Glazed Cod, Peasant Soup or Fudge Brownie Torte? Or perhaps Chummos Canapes, Mile-High Chinese Chicken Salad, Veal Marsala, Spicy Fries and Apple-Rum Croustade. Doesn't sound light does it? It doesn't taste light either!
