This is another new author. I love getting cook books from different authors. They all have a different style about them.  I give this book 5 stars. I would highly recommend this cook book.  I never realized that there were so many different ways to use yogurt.

The pictures are absolutely beautiful. And I love seeing what the food is supposed to look like when it is finished. She goes into so much detail about what to use and how to use it.

They were some names of things...
