   This was surprisingly a good, solid cookbook. We take our references seriously and this one was interesting. A few pictures. No, it didn’t reinvent the salad but it did was clarify things and trigger good ideas for the meal. The salad dressings are very informative. The roasted grapefruit dressing was a winner. So was the ginger-miso vinaigrette.We liked this book so much we ordered it in paper form to add to our collection.

   For most people, salad is an appetizer or a very light meal and is generally composed of lettuce and vegetables. The Dinner Salad Cookbook offers vibrant salads, simple, delicious, and satisfying. The book is divided into two separate parts. Part One is Formulas For Salad Success while Part Two covers The Recipes. In Chapter One of Part One, The Dinner Salad Formula is explained. The various ingredients are discussed with brief descriptions of each and suggestions for how they are used best. The s For most people, salad is an appetizer or a very light meal and is generally composed of lettuce and vegetables. The Dinner Salad Cookbook offers vibrant salads, simple, delicious, and satisfying. The book is divided into two separate parts. Part One is Formulas For Salad Success while Part Two covers The Recipes. In Chapter One of Part One, The Dinner Salad Formula is explained. The various ingredients are discussed with brief descriptions of each and suggestions for how they are used best. The section then goes on to describe pulling together the formula to create recipes and Basic Techniques for preparation. Chapter Two gives you The Dressing Formula for topping off your salads. The bases and various components of the dressings are all discussed. A list of Basic Ingredients for stocking fridge, pantry, and spice rack are included. This helps you know what to keep on hand at all times. Part Two contains several recipe categories including: Asian-Inspired Salads European-Inspired Salads Middle Eastern- And Mediterranean-Inspired Salads Latin American-Inspired Salads American-Inspired Salads Dressings Each of the recipes includes Serving Size, Prep Time, Finish Time, Total Time, and labels such as Dairy-Free, Nut-Free, Vegetarian, Gluten-Free etc. The recipes also include a brief introduction and Nutritional Information. Some even include a Technique, Substitution, or Ingredient Tip. The various ingredients listed in each recipe also includes the symbol for the corresponding component in the formula. This helps you to know how each ingredient fits into the Dinner Salad Formula. More Than Just Recipes Because of the formulas include for both how to create a salad and how to create a dressing, this book is very helpful. I like the idea of being able to create my own flavor combinations. The only photographs included are at the beginning of each recipe chapter or new section. This is disappointing because as only a moderate cook I find it is easier if I knew what to expect the recipe to turn out like. After all of the recipes comes a page including the Dirty Dozen And The Clean Fifteen which covers the ingredients which use the most pesticides and those which are grown without. Next follows a page on Measurement Conversions, and both a Recipe Index and a general Index. See the full review and the recipe for Tajín-Citrus Vinaigrette at The RecipesNow! Reviews And Recipes Magazine. This review is written in response to a complimentary hard copy of the book provided by the publisher in hopes of an honest review.

   When it comes to cookbooks, I try to be as open-minded as possible. I enjoy cooking and being creative with food. As I know some people reading these books have little kitchen background, I based my reviews as subjective as possible. However, I am really struggling with this cookbook. When it comes to cookbooks, the biggest turn off is lack of photographs. I like to see the dish before I start cooking. Having to read through a whole lot of recipes before I find a place to get started can be time When it comes to cookbooks, I try to be as open-minded as possible. I enjoy cooking and being creative with food. As I know some people reading these books have little kitchen background, I based my reviews as subjective as possible. However, I am really struggling with this cookbook. When it comes to cookbooks, the biggest turn off is lack of photographs. I like to see the dish before I start cooking. Having to read through a whole lot of recipes before I find a place to get started can be time-consuming. When I opened this cookbook, it felt more like a novel to me. While there are a lot of recipes and I am sure they all taste great, I found the lack of photographs to be a huge turn-off. I am sorry, but for me, I was not at all fond of this cookbook. I love taking my food on journeys but when I cannot see where to start, I find it difficult to take it to the next level. I will say, if you love getting creative with your salads and would like to take the time to read through the recipes, this book has a lot to offer. For me, it just did not work. I received this book in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are mine and were in no way influenced by outside sources. I am a professional blogger at Little Lady Plays

   Who knew there could be so many different salads? Love the book. There is so much info and even helps teach techniques and each salad has a breakdown of nutritional facts for each salad.
