Cooking Light: 5-Ingredient, 15-Minute Recipes
Healthy eating is easy with these recipes that have only 5 ingredients (excluding water, cooking spray, oil, salt, pepper, and optional ingredients) or can be prepared in 15 minutes or less. Many of the recipes fit the bill for both. And because these are Cooking Light recipes, the focus is on fresh, natural ingredients and simple, straightforward cooking methods. Simplicity has never tasted so good!
Cooking Light: Plant-Based Recipes
Eating a diet with more focus on fruits, veggies, and grains instead of meats has clear health benefits and can provide a wealth of nutrients in pleasurable ways. Some of the dishes in Cooking Light Plant-Based Recipes do contain lean meats, poultry, and seafood, but only in small amounts and as more of a flavor accent rather than the main part of the dish. This compilation of over 65 Cooking Light recipes is for those who are moving toward eating less meat (“flexitarians”) as well as those following a vegetarian lifestyle. Featured recipes include grain bowls, stir-fries, pastas, pizzas, and pressure-cooker recipes. Complete nutrition information is provided with every recipe.
