Manufacturer: Clarkson Potter Brand: Brand: Clarkson Potter

Our lives are more hurried and harried than ever. Who has time to spend hours in the kitchen whipping up tasty yet healthy meals? When we try to eat fast, we almost always eat fat. It's tempting to visit the nearest fast-food restaurant or pop a fat-filled frozen entree into the microwave. With the AHA Quick and Easy Cookbook, working adults and hungry kids, singles pulling long hours at the office -- or anyone who wants to rediscover the joys of home cooking without a lot of fuss and bother -- can savor the pleasures of healthy meals that are as delicious as they are simple to prepare.        With everything from appetizers, soups, salads, and main courses to breads, breakfast treats, and desserts, the AHA Quick and Easy Cookbook has over two hundred options for truly appetizing meals that can be pulled together in under thirty minutes without sacrificing good taste or nutrition.Tempting dishes include stuffed French toast, mushroom quesadillas, pesto "fried" chicken, cornbread-coated pork chops, veal scaloppine in shiitake cream sauce, southwest shepherd's pie, peppery parmesan pan rolls, easy apple-cinnamon crisp, and confetti cupcakes with chocolate glaze.Menu suggestions, a shopping list for the prepared cook's pantry, a glossary of cooking terms, and helpful hints will  make AHA Quick and Easy Cookbook the most well-thumbed and well-loved cookbook on your bookshelf. It's easy to fall into high-fat, fast-food habits when we're busy, and who isn't busy? The American Heart Association has a solution: 200 recipes that are tasty, healthful, low-fat, and fast. The recipes--conveniently spiral-bound--take 20 minutes or less preparation time, and most take just a few minutes of additional cooking time. (Some require more cooking time, but you don't have to hover over them.) Don't skip breakfast when you can make Cinnamon-Bran Pancakes (total time: 11 to 14 minutes), Stuffed French Toast (16 to 18 minutes), or a Banana-Kiwi Breakfast Shake...

Heart disease poses the greatest health threat that women in the United States face: One in every three women will die from it each year. But that doesn't have to be the case. Heart disease is not an inevitable part of growing older. In fact, if you reach the age of 50 without developing the major risk factors for heart disease, you can live your entire life without it, and your chances of dying from it decrease from 50 percent to a strikingly low 8 percent. The key to preventing heart disease is embracing a heart-healthy lifestyle—and the sooner, the better. In this groundbreaking book, the American Heart Association shows you how even the smallest changes can make a big difference over time to protect the health of your heart.   The Complete Guide to Women's Heart Health explains how gradual and sustainable shifts in your routine, such as using just a little more than one percent of your time each week to exercise or losing just 10 percent of your body weight, can have a far-reaching impact on your health. With specific pointers on diet, exercise, and health care, this book shows you how to get past the common obstacles as well as how to make taking care of your heart easy and attainable for the busy life you lead, at every age. In chapters targeted for every decade of a woman's life from her 20s to her 70s and beyond, the American Heart Association gives women age-appropriate advice on healthy lifestyle choices and heart-health care.
