Heart healthy cookbook for two

by Candy H
Simple, easy, quick
I like that the ingredients are straightforward and easy to find in the grocery store. I also tweaked the dressing a bit in the photo, but mostly this book is a very good beginner level+ healthy cooking basic guide – very holistic. Meal plans are superb and well thought-out.

Heart Healthy Cookbook Disappointing
This cookbook is OK for people who do not have a serious heart problem or not on a salt free diet or taking Coumadin.It’s been good for just two people though, I like that.I have found several recipes I do like for Salmon and chicken. Breakfast recipes are disappointing. I like the egg in the avocado one though. The muffin ones come out looking great but the taste is lacking.I should have shopped around and looked at several before I bought this one. If I hadn’t written in it, I would have sent it back.

This is great book if you are on a cardiac diet which is low salt
Just wanted to give a shout out for this book, after a year of using it. The recipes are easy to prepare, you can even use them for special occasions. It’s a really great book that is keeping me on track to eat low sodium without pain. Kudos!

Helpful and easy to navigate
I just got this today and dove right in! It’s appears to be easy to navigate through. Gives you first, what a heart healthy diet is and what variation matches your situation. It addresses diabetes, cholesterol, blood pressure and more. I did not have a heart attack “PRAISE GOD” however I was told via genetic testing I show signs of Cardiomyopathy so my diet change, lifestyle change is primarily for preventative purposes. I share this because im finding this book an easy read and a blessing. I don’t need pictures (there are little to none) I need easy recipes and more importantly tasty!Best of luck to all who are on this same or similar journey-

Cookbook
Has variety of good recipes
by Tessa Clark-Jago
This cookbook was a great gift for my grandpa who just had heart surgery and has to change his diet. Lots of amazing and tasteful recipes and not to long of a prep time or cook time!

Es un libro muy informativo. Cada receta contiene comentarios sobre los ingredientes y lo que aportan nutricionalmente, ofrece sugerencias de acompañamientos y cuenta con un indice para localizar fácilmente las recetas, aun cuando esta claramente organizado por tipo de comida (desayuno, comida, cena, postres, etc). Hay una sección entera antes de las recetas con información importante e incluye conversiones entre medidas, entre otros detalles. Compre varios libros de recetas bajas en colesterol y este es por mucho el que mas utilizo porque ademas, las recetas que he probado han sido muy buenas.

Bought as husband just had 2 stents. Liked the fact the recipes are for two people. But I didn’t realise it was an American book, so measurements in cups and some foods have differing names to British foods, which will make for extra time rewriting the recipes. The variety of recipes looks tasty and as I am gluten free, many of them meet this requiremt.
