The Canyon Ranch spas are some of the most renowned wellness getaways in the country, not just because of the beautiful facilities and revitalizing treatments and activities that they offer, but also because of their food. The spas are known for serving food that is as good for your body food can get - and has a taste that "is beyond words." Canyon Ranch Cooking: Bringing the Spa Home is a collection of some of the spa's best recipes, which means that you can easily recreate their healthy, delicious meals even when you're mot visiting the spa.

The large volume is nearly 500 pages long and is well laid out, filled with beautiful pictures and well-written recipes. All of the recipes conform to the low calorie, low fat (20% cal from fat) guidelines followed at the spa. They rely heavily on fresh produce and meats, not on prepacked "diet" types of products, as well as cous cous, white and brown rice and other grains, and the dishes end up looking - and tasting - just as good as those from regular cookbooks. There are many options for breakfast, lunch, diner and dessert, as well as dips, sides, soups and salads. Some of the recipes include Banana Waffles with Maple Walnut Syrup, Indonesian Chicken with Grilled Bananas, Osso Bucco, Seafood Chowder, Cheese Enchiladas and Cherry Streusel Pie.
