EatingWell 500Calorie Dinners

Hands-on advice on how to create satisfying meals that won?t leave you hungry, proper portion sizes, and shopping and menu-planning tips. "Calorie counting is back!" read a recent headline in the New York Times. Evidence: more and more companies are producing 100-calorie snack packs, New York now requires calorie count... more »s from all restaurants with 15 or more outlets, and Congress is considering two acts that would standardize calorie labeling nationwide.

Now, EatingWell, publisher of EatingWell Magazine and the 2008 James Beard Award?winning EatingWell Diet cookbook, is making it easier to count calories at home with EatingWell 500-Calorie Dinners: Easy, Delicious Recipes & Menus.

The book opens with sound nutritional advice from some of the country?s most esteemed weight-loss experts on how counting calories is the best, most sustainable way to control your weight. It includes hands-on advice on how to create satisfying meals that won?t leave you hungry, proper portion sizes, and shopping and menu-planning tips. The menus and meals are designed to work with most diet plans and are analyzed for nutritional values, cost, and how they match up with some of the country?s most popular diets, including Weight Watchers, South Beach, and others.

?For most people, dinner is the hardest meal to plan for,? says EatingWell nutrition editor Nicci Micco. ?If you can plan for a 500-calorie dinner and keep what you eat the rest of the day to 1,000 to 1,500 calories, most people will be able to maintain a healthy weight or even lose weight.?

EatingWell 500-Calorie Dinners offers main courses, sides, soups, appetizers, and desserts; menus give careful pairings, portion sizes, and shopping tips so you won?t go overboard.

?The secret to being satisfied is having food that tastes delicious and fills you up,? says food editor Jessie Price. ?The meals in this cookbook were planned to do that.? With recipes like Grilled Salmon & Summer Squash with Romesco Sauce served with new potatoes, Hawaiian Ginger-Chicken Stew with brown rice, and Greek Orzo-Stuffed Peppers with roasted broccoli, it?s easy to eat well and stay within 500 calories.

More than 150 delicious recipes, most that take less than 45 minutes, prep to table
