In February, the Cookbook Club read and cooked from Comfort Food Makeovers: All Your Favorites Made Lighter by America's Test Kitchen. This book was no one's favorite of our selections so far. The general consensus seemed to be, if you're going to treat yourself to some comfort food, then have the real thing. Another point the group made was, that while the book gave how many calories were in the original versus the makeover dish, the original recipe was not included and it would be helpful to see what was being substituted for what. A few members were a bit disappointed with their dishes this time, but they were far from unenjoyable.
We tried the following recipes:
7 Layer Dip
Oatmeal Fudge
Lemon Squares
Pad Thai
Spinach Salad
Cheeseburger Pie
Tomato Soup
Next Book:
