For Christmas I would like to get my inlaws a cookbook and maybe ingredients to make a recipe out of the cookbook - put it all in a basket but I am looking for one that is healthy - my father in law just had stints put in for heart blockage and my mother in law is trying to cook healthier for the both of them so I thought a cook book would be a nice gift - does anyone have any heart healthy cookbook suggestions?
Thanks
I just saw this. I have the Low-Fat, Low-Cholesterol cookbook by the American Heart Association and the Fix-It and Enjoy-It Healthy Cookbook by Phyllis Pellman Good with nutritional expertise from Mayo Clinic. I got them two years ago when I learned my cholesterol was a bit high. I recommend both.
the american heart association has a large cookbook.
My very favorite book is "The Worlds Healthiest Foods" by George Mateljan. There are some recipes in there, but it does a great job of explaining the true health benefits of foods.
Another good cook book is Eating Well. They also have a monthly magazine which may be nice for them. Because each month it has recipes of foods in season.
Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone by Deborah Madison is like a bible of simple foods, with tons and tons of vegetable recipes that can be served with simple chicken or meat side dishes.

My faves are any Weight Watchers cookbooks, HungryGirl cookbooks and The Busy Mom's Slow Cooker Cookbook by Jyl Steinback, all are healthy and yummy!!
