Despite my title for this review, this is an excellent, very detailed manual that merits reading for those who are in the pool business or want a reference tool for things no one else seems to know or understand. The author is an expert in his field, so anyone can learn from him no matter how much t..

Canyon Ranch Cooking : Bringing the Spa Home |
This intimidatingly beautiful book on low-fat spa cooking takes the chi-chi out of spa food and actually makes it accessible to the average cook. Although the easy-to-prepare recipes in Canyon Ranch Cooking rely mostly on fresh produce and meats, Cook It Light expert Jeanne Jones offers alternatives to and substitutes for ingredients you might not find during certain times of the year (such as frozen berries and vegetables in place of their fresh counterparts). Also, many of the recipes incorporate carbohydrates and grains such as pastas, white and brown rice, couscous, and bulgur, which are easier to find year-round. The tone of the book is not restrictive or didactic--Jones really wishes to make the food accessible and friendly, as well as healthful--and the language used is posit.. |

Some say that they starve to death because the portions are so small, and others claim that the entire eating experience is out of this world. Although Ive not been to Canyon Ranch, I must say that this cookb..
