Product Description
Andrea Chesman presents 366 creative and flavorful "natural gourmet" recipes using a wide variety of beans and grains, like basmati and jasmine rice, adzuki beans, amaranth, and quinoa. Organized by course and main ingredient, these dishes range from light and lively starters to hearty and soul-satisfying foods that stick to your ribs but not to your waistline. American favorites are well represented here, but adventurous cooks will be pleased to find ethnic cuisines dominating this mouthwatering collection, including such recipes as:
* Spicy Vegetable Couscous
* Pesto Pasta with Cranberry Beans
* Smoky Black Bean Burritos
* Jamaican-Style Rice and Peas This wonderful addition to our 366 Ways series features foods that are among the most versatile and healthful in the human diet, not to mention absolutely delicious.
* Recipes are high in flavor, low in fat.
* Each recipe includes a detailed nutritional analysis, which counts calories, fat, percentage of calories from fat, protein, fiber, sodium, and calcium.
* Vegetarian dishes dominate the collection, but healthful variations include salmon, shrimp, and chicken.

 Diappointing August 19, 2010
Andrew Jackson (Dallas Metroplex)
I excepted 366 rice recipes/combinations. What the book does is 80% salad, soup and other recipes and about 20% is some form of rice. Rather disappointing. It is not meant for vegetarians or vegans for she uses a lot of meat; we are vegans and we don't eat any type of oils and much/most of her recipes asks for unhealthy canola ([...]) or olive oil. I'll keep the book because it was not that much, but over all, disappointed. The title says 366 rice + recipes which is false. I wont purchase any more of her books. She does not mention as I have found, rice cookers. I have a Zojirushi (that I have fallen in love with) that I paid almost over $300 and I was really looking forward to the book. Oh well...lie and learn, I guess.
 One of the best cookbooks ever July 6, 2010

What a surprise this cookbook turned out to be! It is jammed-packed with wonderful, delicious recipes that are so doable, so easy and fun to create. I bought additional copies for my mother and my daughter and they are in love with this invaluable book, as well.

For anyone that has a desire to cook using more grains in their meals this is a wonderful cookbook. I bought it primarily because I was getting a new rice cooker and wanted to have some new recipes to use with it. Great buy, well written, yummy!!
 SERIOUS OVERSIGHT, MAJOR FLAW March 29, 2010

The book gives nutritional analysis for each recipe - which does NOT contain the CARBOHYDRATE content! Are they serious? Whether you just want to know the major nutritional information about what you are eating, or (like me) you have medical concerns (diabetes), you need the carbohydrate count! This is a ridiculous oversight, and a serious one. Shame on her, her editors, and her publisher.
 Less than wonderful March 5, 2010

Read the recipe before heading out to the grocery store. In fact, read the recipe's before you buy this book! This book is not great.
We moved from the Southwest to the DC Metro area. Once I received the book and started comparing what I have in my pantry to what is in the recipe's - couldn't do it - could not even try the recipe's that sounded appealing. And I keep Quinua & Basmati on hand!
Fresh cilantro, healthy chili's, heck even fresh beans, much less a variety of them, are just not available at my local grocery stores. Consider myself lucky when I find canned Jalapeno's or green chili's that are NOT pickled. Perhaps if I made a special trip 40 miles to Wegmans I could find them....
