From the American Heart Association, 150 healthy, flavorful, easy-to-make recipes that the whole family will enjoy

Searching for meals that are not only appealing to the whole family but also nutritious, tasty alternatives to convenience products and fast food? The nation's most trusted authority on heart-healthy living presents nourishing, delectable recipes to please the palates of family members of all ages. Since the main dish is usually the starting point of meal planning, more than half the 150 recipes in this book are for entrées.

With American Heart Association Healthy Family Meals, you'll be serving healthy, flavor-packed dishes to your family every night of the week. Chapters include:

- Busy Nights recipes, like Pesto Presto Sirloin and Spring Ragù with Spiral Pasta, which are especially quick and easy to prepare--each of them can be made, start to finish, in 30 minutes or less.
- Plan-Aheads, which offer recipes that require somewhat more time and steps such as marinating and chilling Tandoori-Style Chicken or using a slow cooker for Southwestern Beef Stew, but let you get a head start on a meal when it's convenient for you.
- Cook Once, Eat Twice recipes that give you the benefit of having planned-overs instead of leftovers. For example, Roasted Salmon with Cucumber Lime Sauce provides enough cooked fish for tonight, plus more for Salmon Cakes with Lemon Caper Sauce later in the week.
- Everyday Dinners recipes that provide tasty dishes, including Pomegranate Walnut Chicken and Curried Shrimp Risotto, which your family will want over and over again.

Beautifully designed and sprinkled with dozens of vibrant recipe photographs, American Heart Association Healthy Family Meals also includes information for the educated shopper, the smart cook, parents with picky eaters, and more.
