Each dish sounds like expensive restaurant fare, yet the recipes are simple and the presentation easy to follow. Four weeks of helpful, day-by-day menus plus charts, cooking lore, tips and techniques will inspire you to make healthy cooking a daily commitment--and it will soon become a lifelong pleasure!
About the Author:
With more than 5.5 million books in print and nearly thirty years of food and cooking experience, Julee Rosso has become one of America's most established and well-respected cooking authorities. Her best-selling cookbooks, including Great Good Food (Crown, May 1993), her first to focus on low-fat, healthy cooking, have won her a devoted following. The Washington Post says, "Rosso is the first cookbook writer who has made lower-fat cooking fun as well as sensible--and has gone out of her way to make it taste absolutely terrific.  It's what food fans across the country have come to expect from her."

As an original co-founder from 1977 to 1988 of The Silver Palate, the first real gourmet take-out food and catering shop in Manhattan, Julee and her co-founder introduced the big, bold intensely flavored dishes that have become so popular over the past fifteen years.  By 1989, she achieved international culinary fame as the co-author of The Silver Palate Cookbook, The Silver Palate Good Times Cookbook, and The New Basics Cookbook.

Great Good Food, her first solo effort, has sold more than 400,000 copies and Publishers Weekly recently listed it as one of the ten best-selling classic cookbooks.         Since the enormous success of Great Good Food, people all over the country have been eagerly awaiting Julee's next cookbook to focus on healthy eating. In FRESH START (Crown, May 1996), Julee offers twenty-eight days of menus, which include recipes that will appeal to everyone--food lovers, long-time healthy eaters, dieters, cookbook lovers, and others--and she proves that healthful cooking is simple and delicious enough to become a daily habit and a lifetime commitment.

Julee has appeared on many national television and radio programs, including NBC's "Today" show, ABC's "Good Morning America," and "20/20."  In addition, over the years, Julee has earned an incomparable reputation in the world of food.  Her contributions to the specialty food business have been recognized through such prestigious awards as the "Ocean Spray Cranberry Salute to American Food," "Business Woman of the Year for Gourmet Takeout" by the New York Small Business Administration, as well as the "Pacesetter Award for The Roundtable for Women in Foodservice," and "The Metropolitan Home Design 100 Award."  Inducted into the James Beard Foundation's "Who's Who in American Cooking," she is the recipient of the "Tastemaker Award" for The Silver Palate Good Times Cookbook, which also won the 1985 Duncan Hines/IACP award for "Best Entertaining Cookbook of the Year."  In 1992, The Silver Palate Cookbook was named to the James Beard Cookbook Hall of Fame.

Today, Julee and her husband, Bill Miller, live on the shore of Lake Michigan where, among other things, they own the award-winning Wickwood Inn in Saugatuck, Michigan, which Bon Appétit and Country Inns magazines recently named as one of the ten best inns in America.  Also, Mid-Western Living readers cited the inn as their favorite in all of the midwest.  In addition to overseeing the inn, Julee writes, lectures, and teaches cooking classes for fund-raisers throughout the United States.
