Although some of the recipes contain exotic ingredients that may be hard to get in some areas, many are relatively simple and incredibly delicious! Amazingly, they are also all low-fat. Plus, the book benefits a good cause. I've never gone wrong cooking something out of here--always raves from the guests!

Fabulous recipes for a great cause. A mouth watering guide to the Bay Area's finest chef's and restaurants. The book contains short biographies on each contributing chef.

The Open Hand Cookbook is one of the cookbooks that inspires me. It has very cohesive and inventive menus, and is fun to read and cook with!
