A recovering sugar addict seeks delicious, healthy recipes

Nearly two years ago, I decided to stop mixing up entire bowls of sugar cookie dough and calling that breakfast, lunch, and dinner. With the support of my husband and the apprehension of my three children, I stood in the pantry and threw out all of the processed junk we owned.

When I was finished, we had a few cans of tomatoes and that was it. I then purchased huge bags of all kinds of grains. Different kinds of wheat, spelt, Kamut, amaranth, buckwheat, and more. But I didn't know what on earth to do with them.

For about a year, we ate a lot of brown rice, and I learned how to make bread from my freshly ground flours, but what to do with pounds upon pounds of all of those other types of grain?

I stumbled upon Whole Grains Every Day, Every Way while browsing for healthful cookbooks at a book store. I flipped through eagerly, would this help me use all of those grains and cook good-for-us, yet delicious foods for my family?

I didn't buy it immediately, but went home to read reviews on Amazon. Encouraged, I purchased it and waited for it to arrive.

This book is fast becoming my go-to Food Bible. Every recipe I've tried, my family has adored. The directions are easy to understand, the suggested substitutions allow me to get more comfortable with the many different kinds of grains, and the results have all (so far) been wonderful.

My only complaint? I wish every recipe had a full color photograph. But other than that, this book is an absolute must for anyone desiring to eat more healthfully, or use up the fabulous grains pining away in their basement food storages.

Whole grains never tasted so good

I have not tried lots of these recipes though I hope to soon. I will say that the ones I have made - Whole Wheat Biscotti, Spelt Ginger Snaps and the Thai Chicken Rice soup are in my "best recipes ever" file. I am sure the rest are just as good. I plan to give it as presents for Christmas. So glad I discovered it thanks to other comments I read about it!

Life style change

It is the best cook book about grains I have found! Fantastic ideas and great variety of recipes. My cooking has changed for better and my family diet as well. The best of all, is the idea of a grain bank in your freezer. It saves my time and helps me to vary the combinations.
Fantastic book.

Delicious recipes!

This book contains many delicious recipes using a variety of grains. I especially like the quinoa and barley recipes; however, every recipe I have tried has been delicious. Also provides tips on the best way to cook the grains for the best results. This book contains recipes you wouldn't necessarily find in a "Betty Crocker" type of cookbook (not that there is anything wrong with Betty Crocker), so if you are looking for a cookbook with a lot of delicious and different recipes............this book is for you!

Whole Grains for everyone...

Excellent book providing easy to understand information on a wide variety of grains in addition to delicious recipes. Lorna's method for cooking quinoa described in this book resulted in the best tasting & easiest quinoa I've ever made. I have most of her other books and use them constantly. "Cooking Under Pressure" is one of my favorites.
