> Very little time involved. I work two jobs and have little time for food

> Wow. So delicious and so easy to prepare. I made the Waldorf Salad and

I agree that this a very good book, the advice is reasonable and easy to follow.
Some delicious salad mixtures the above reader mentions are particularly tempting.
When one realizes how crucial good heart health is to a long and healthy life,
it's n no-brainer!
