Summary: "Good standby"
NY Times Health editor, Jane Brody's cookbook career might be dated, but this is a great and inventive cookbook. My favorite receipes include dilly beans, fruited chicken (with prunes). Healthy, delicious, creative and simple.

Summary: "Jane Brody's Good Food Gourmet Cook Book"
Just as enjoyable and nutritious as Jane Brody's other cook book. Some of the recipes are the same as in Jane Brody's Good Foods, but still worth reading.

Summary: "never gets old!"
I have used this cookbook for years. It's recipes never get old. They are healthful but always tasty. The most used cookbook on my shelf. Don't miss her "Guacamole Grande", homemade stock and then Turkey soup, and Quick Eggplant casserole.

Summary: "My "go to" cookbook"
I have used this cookbook for years. I also use her original cookbook,Jane Brody's Good Food Book. The recipes in both are easy and delicious. Many of us have forgotten how good all those healthy carbs can be. Brody reminds us. Whenever I don't know what to prepare for dinner, I pick up one of these two books. I always find something tasty and healthy. Morrison's Minestrone and Jane's Everyday Vinaigrette are two of my favorite recipes.

Summary: "Jane Brody's Good Food Gourmet: Recipes and Menus"
I am a tremendous fan of all Jane's cookbooks and this one is my all-time favorite. Not only are the recipes easy to follow and delicious, they also really do make enough to entertain friends and family. I have made many of the recipes in this cookbook and many have become family standards. Friends always ask me for the recipe when I cook from Jane's book, and many of these recipes are now standards for their families too! Last, I will add that its easy to be a good cook with Jane Brody!
