Are you stressed out over how to feed your family a nutritious meal at the end of a long, busy day without turning to convenience foods or the drive-through? Now, the nation’s most trusted authority on heart-healthy living presents a cookbook bursting with nourishing, flavorful recipes to please the palates of family members of all ages. Since the main dish is usually the starting point of meal planning, more than half the recipes in this book are for entrées.

Here’s how they’re organized:

• Busy Nights
• Plan-Aheads
• Cook Once, Eat Twice

To help you incorporate additional vegetables, fruits, and grains into your family’s diet, we’ve included Make It a Meal, a special feature that suggests accompaniments–salads and soups, vegetable and grain side dishes, and even desserts–for many of the main dishes.

Shrimp Tacos
Serves 4; 2 tacos per serving
Start to Finish: 25 minutes

Tasty seafood tacos are all the rage, and since you can buy peeled and deveined shrimp either fresh or frozen, these are super-easy to prepare.

1/2 cup fat-free sour cream
2 tablespoons snipped fresh cilantro
1 teaspoon canola or corn oil
13 to 14 ounces peeled raw shrimp, rinsed and patted dry
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
2 medium garlic cloves, minced
8 6-inch corn tortillas
2 cups shredded lettuce, such as romaine or iceberg
1 small tomato, diced
2 tablespoons sliced black olives

In a small bowl, stir together the sour cream and cilantro. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use. In a large nonstick skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat, swirling to coat the bottom. Add the shrimp to the pan. Sprinkle the chili powder and cumin on the shrimp. Sprinkle with the garlic. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes if using large shrimp, or 2 to 3 minutes if using small, or until the shrimp are pink on the outside, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat. Using the package directions, warm the tortillas. Put the tortillas on a flat surface. Sprinkle with the lettuce, tomato, and olives. Spoon the sour cream mixture on each. Top with the shrimp. Fold 2 opposite sides of the tortilla toward the center. If you prefer a dramatic presentation instead, place 2 unfolded tacos side by side on a dinner plate. Fold each in half. Push a 6-inch wooden skewer through both tacos near the tops to hold them together. Repeat with the remaining tacos. Your family will be able to remove the skewers easily before eating the tacos.

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy and Good!
Reviewed in the United States on October 7, 2022

I love this cookbook. I have high blood pressure and have used this for the past 2 months with my family. Every recipe I’ve tried so far has been excellent and easy! Quote from my kid: “This is the first healthy cookbook you’ve bought that actually tastes good.” They’ve got the combination of spices down in the recipes. Whole family is eating more fruits and veggies, less sodium, less saturated fats, and less sugar…and not feeling deprived. We are all active in sports and the meals keep us well fueled. Thank you AHA for creating this cookbook!

5.0 out of 5 stars Healthy Meals For The Whole Family
Reviewed in the United States on July 6, 2015
Verified Purchase
I love this book! It really works for all of my family. The meals taste great. All nutritional info is printed. There are numerous pictures. All of the recipes I've tried have sodium content that meet my low sodium diet restrictions and still taste good to my kids and husband. The shrimp tacos on the front cover were a big hit with my husband.(I did use Mexican creama instead of sour cream). I made the Ginger Beef Stir Fry and the whole family liked it except one child picked out the red bell pepper and another one would not eat the water chest nuts but overall it was a really good meal. I like that the book has a variety of foods and uses common ingredients. Another nice feature is the "make it a meal" box on the page with an entree that gives suggested sides and desert to go with the entree. This book was just what I wanted.

I like the easy, tasty recipes in this book. I know my meals won't be too high in calories and that they will be healthy! I really like that they give ideas of what to pair with your main dish. I love the educational materials and pointers about eating healthy and several tips. It's very nice to have all of this information on hand. Great pictures. It's a great book. I really like it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Heart Healthy Family Meals
Reviewed in the United States on September 9, 2011

This book is exactly what it promises to be. Full of healthy meals that most, if not all, of your family will love. We all have a picky eater in our lives somewhere but this book does a great job of covering all the bases. Ingredients are easy to find at any major grocery chain and cooking time is reasonable for a busy working family. This is not a gourmet cookbook, it won't take you to far away lands to please your palate, it is simple family cooking. I highly recommend this book for practical, down to earth cooking without the hassle of specialty prices.

5.0 out of 5 stars Healthy Eating for All
Reviewed in the United States on July 15, 2016

I purchased this in addition to other AHA cookbooks so that I could expand my selection of healthy meals with less forethought. This is a great book for family cooking. It is divided into sections for quick meals, longer prep meals, cooking once for two meals, cooking with kids, etc. Then most sections are divided by fish/poultry/beef/vegetables. My kids have loved most of the meals I have selected so far. It is also fairly simple to expand the recipes for larger families (we have 6).

I have always been pleased with AHA cookbooks and this is no exception

3.0 out of 5 stars Fancy cooking
Reviewed in the United States on March 2, 2012
Verified Purchase
I am pretty simple in my food likes and cooking ability. This is for those with fancier tastes. There are quite a few suprises in the contents of the recipes. For instance, the brownies include a jar of pureed prunes (baby food). I have some food sensitivities, and I have to keep away from onions, peppers, and expecially cayenne. To be able to make most of the meals, I would have to leave out quite a few ingredients. I was really hoping that at least some of the recipes would be simpler meals. I neeed to improve my eating habits because of recently diagnosed heart problems. This is not the book to help me. It may be great for some, but not me. I am seriously considering returning it.

I ordered a used book and it said there may be highlighting or writing in the book but it is a cookbook so I didn't think it would matter. The book I received is just like new. I am so happy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Cookbook with Easy-to-Find Ingredients
Reviewed in the United States on August 10, 2013
Verified Purchase
My husband and I have loved cooking out of this cookbook so far. The things we like about them are:
* The recipes are relatively healthy.
* Most ingredients are easy to find or things we already have around the house.
* The recipes appeal to a mainstream American audience. Healthy versions of chilis, pasta dishes, casseroles, etc.
* Many of the recipes are quick so we can make them during the week.

As someone who works full-time and is pregnant, relatively healthy, easy, and mainstream are what I need right now. I feel this cookbook delivers!
