I used to always be on the lookout for good, European-style bread. The grocery stores seldom have it, and if they do it is made from white flour and has a hefty price tag on it. I would buy what I termed "good bread" from specialty bakeries for special occasions. Although I baked my own bread often, my recipe was for traditional loaves of sandwich-type bread, not the tantalizing, crusty, chewy loaves of bread I remember from Europe. Then a friend introduced me to the super simple method of making artisan bread without kneading. It seems too good to be true, but after making 20 loaves in one week, I am here to tell you that it is ridiculously easy, fast and foolproof. It has revolutionized bread at my house! No need to buy it at the grocery store when fabulous bread is this easy to make. And it only takes 4 ingredients: flour, salt, yeast and water. Hardbound book contains 100 fabulous recipes for healthy ethnic breads, whole wheat hamburger buns, pizza, corn bread, and gluten-free baking. Although they often use a mix of white flour and whole grain flour, I use only whole grain flour and the recipes turn out great. Bake your own artisan breads for just 40 cents per loaf! Color photographs will make your mouth water. A whopping 336 pages.

La Leche League (the breast-feeding moms' group) did what it takes a lifetime to do—gather recipes from mothers all over the nation who have converted over to whole foods (meaning whole grains rather than refined flours, and honey or fruit sweeteners instead of sugar). My copy of this excellent cookbook is bedraggled and beloved. Now, it has been printed with a hard cover and large spiral binding so yours won't wear out like mine did! All 900 recipes have passed the taste test and are wholesome and nutritious. Quick and complete, make-it-from-scratch instructions make this valuable indeed.

Instructions are also given on how to cook all the grains and beans, and what to serve them with to create a protein complement. Besides your normal cookbook sections of breads, main dishes (meat and meatless), and desserts, wonderful information is also included on breakfasts, lunch recipes, baby's first foods, non-allergenic recipes, sprouting, and using natural food dyes for Easter eggs or in cooking. I have often referred to the quick meals listed in the section entitled, "When It's 4 o'clock" to find out what I can scurry together for dinner. You will use it daily—one of my favorite cookbooks! 364 pages.
