Recipient of the International Association of Culinary Professionals' Award for Best Special-Diets Cookbook, this book makes heart-healthy eating a pleasure as well as a virtue. It features such mouth-watering recipes as spicy Chicken Fajitas, Salmon and Pasta Salad, rich Eggplant Parmiagians, and creamy Chocolate Soufflé with Vanilla Sauce.

  • Step-One and Step-Two Diet plans to show you how to use the AHA's recipes in an easy-to-follow plan to lower your blood cholesterol level

The topic covers two very important aspects of staying healthy. I have always cooked a lot and now I spend a lot more time considering the cholesterol and fat content in foods. This book is very helpful.
