HOW THYME FLIES! Bestselling cookbook authors and sisters Janet & Greta Podleski are celebrating the 15th anniversary of their fun-filled, blockbuster cookbook, Looneyspoons, with the launch of the ultimate guide to healthy eating and healthy living: The Looneyspoons Collection: Janet & Greta's Greatest Recipe Hits PLUS a Whole Lot More! IT'S GOOD FOOD, GOOD HEALTH AND GOOD FUN with 400 pages, 325 "I can't believe this is healthy!" recipes, hundreds of gorgeous, full-colour photos, pages and pages of healthy living, weight-loss and anti-aging tips and, of course, lots of corny jokes and silly recipe titles that made their three previous bestselling cookbooks famous. According to Janet, the nutritionist of the duo, "TLC is jam-packed (as in 'loaded'..not as in 'full of jam') with Greta's amazing recipes (wait until you try her gluten-free brownies!) and tons of cutting-edge nutrition and lifestyle tips. It's our most comprehensive cookbook to date and includes reader-favourite recipes from Looneyspoons, Crazy Plates and ESBM:... PLUS recipes we've written for magazines, our TV show and LOTS of brand-new, never-seen-before stuff, too. I feel like this is the cookbook we were meant to write. The first three were just practice!""The best news for fans and owners of our cookbooks is that all of our old, outdated recipes from Looneyspoons and Crazy Plates have been revised and updated to reflect current nutritional trends and ingredients," adds Greta. "Remember way back in the 90s when all of the experts were telling us that 'fat is evil' and we should basically remove all fat from our diet? Well, now we know the difference between good fats (salmon, avocados) and bad fats (hydrogenated and trans fats) and that not all fat is bad for you. Coconut oil is good! Nuts are not the enemy! Similarly, no one was focusing on reducing salt and sugar back then, because fat was getting all the attention. We think some of our older recipes are too high in sugar and salt and these recipes have been modified and 'healthified' for the new book. We've also included gluten-free recipes as well as recipes suitable for diabetics. Our new Moroccan and Rollin? Quinoa Salad alone is worth the price of the book!" "Finally, for all of the Weight Watchers members who bombarded us with requests for the fibre content of Looneyspoons recipes, your wish will come true in The Looneyspoons Collection! Every recipe in the book, and there are loads of them, contains a complete nutritional analysis."

Does not disappoint,
By J. S. (Nanaimo, BC, CAN) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Looneyspoons Collection: Janet & Greta's Greatest Recipe Hits plus a Whole Lot More (Paperback)
Another great book from these two! And it is a beautiful book. Lots of pictures, lots of info and tips, and of course Los of scrumptious recipes, both new and old (from their other 3 books). It is a fantastic book, I find I have lots of cookbooks but I cook mostly from these books....healthy and quick and easy and my family approves!

This review is from: Looneyspoons Collection: Janet & Greta's Greatest Recipe Hits plus a Whole Lot More (Paperback)
I had purchased their original Looneyspoons cookbook years ago and really enjoyed it, but got caught up in another series of cookbooks UNTIL NOW! Not sure how I got on the hype train, but I'm on for the entire run. I love the anecdotes and humor and for you complainers, anyone can print a recipe on a page, it takes thinking outside the box to come up with this winner that includes helpful tips, nutritional contents and more. Marla's Maple Port was recommended to me by Greta on her facebook page and I took it from there. In one weekend I made the roasted beets, Britney Spears [Asparagus], Crab & Corn Chowder, Tuna Salad & Cococabanana cake. My family just polished off the Roast Feast (pot roast extraordinaire] in which the addition of cabbage was genius. Now I'm a celebrity [got my copy signed by Greta & Janet this weekend] in my house too!!
