Do This: Chicago Homegrown Cookbook at Green City Market

If you haven't bought a copy of the Chicago Homegrown Cookbook, head to Green City Market this Wednesday, where author Heather Lalley will be signing copies. If you have already bought one, go anyway and meet Heather and swap recipes. The book, which includes recipes from many of our favorite chefs including Rick Bayless, Paul Kahan, Mindy Segal and Rob Levitt, is a beautiful testament to our vibrant local food community. What better place to get a copy than at Green City Market?

Yum! I love a cookbook that celebrates local traditions and recipes. My cousin lives in Chi-town and is a huge foodie, so I think I just found her Christmas present!
The one thing I'm concerned about- do the recipes account for health as well as flavor? I know she tries to eat very healthily, as heart disease runs in our family. For instance, she love the cookbook "Heart Easy" by Kac Young - http://www.hearteasy.com
I guess she could always modify the recipes based on what she knows. Thanks for the cookbook recommendation!
