Tribole, a registered nutritionist, gears this book to the young professional who has little time to cook nutritious, healthy meals. She believes in making the most of adversity and comes up with inspired suggestions for snacking. Her theory is that a snack every two hours during the day will fulfill daily requirements for vitamins and nutrients from the four basic food groups. The snacks can be as simple as orange juice and a bagel or as interesting as curried chicken celery on pita. Tribole also discusses the pluses and minuses of fast food, advises on weight loss for people on the go, talks about disease prevention and offers hints on nutrition for athletes. (June)

Ice Cream and Frozen Desserts
Author: Peggy Fallon
There's a new twist in the world of frozen desserts: homemade. Learn step-by-step how to use each type of ice cream machine on the market, and then indulge your creativity in the kitchen with this fully illustrated guide, packed with over one hundred flavorful treats, from classic French Vanilla Gelato to extravagant Chocolate-Chipotle Ice Cream.
Pauline Baughman - Library Journal
Americans love ice cream, and the homemade version always has a special appeal. Fallon (The Best Ice Cream Maker Cookbook Ever) serves up over 100 recipes to tempt every palate. A brief introduction describes different ice cream machines and ingredients, and the first half of the book is dedicated to original and often unusual ice creams as well as basics. Recipes range from the rich-Gianduja Chocolate Chunk Gelato-to the refreshing-Boysenberry Buttermilk Sherbet-to the grown-up-Gin & Tonic Ice with Lime. The second half of the work focuses on recipes that utilize homemade or store-bought ice cream to make frozen treats such as sundaes, ice cream pies, and shakes. Fallon shapes ice cream into whimsical plates of spaghetti, baked potatoes, and pizza, all designed to trick the eye, and it is these recipes that make this book a true standout. Well-written and easy-to-follow instructions are combined with tempting color photos. Recommended for public libraries.
