Learn to make healthy, delicious Indian food in your own kitchen! Too many cookbooks these days are filled with recipes that are either too weird or too time-consuming for the everyday home chef. Even if you do manage to make one of these fancy dishes, chances are it won't become one of your staples. Easy, Healthy, Delicious Indian Recipes takes the opposite approach, only including recipes if they have a legitimate shot at becoming a favorite for the average cook. Don't sacrifice Simplicity shouldn't come with tradeoffs. Just because a recipe doesn't take a culinary degree to make doesn't mean it has an excuse to be bland! Indian food is known for its succulent tastes and tantalizing aromas, and it would be a crime to allow it to be anything other than delicious. By the same token, crave-worthy food should also be good for you. Our recipes are created under the Real Food framework, which follows the common-sense logic that nutrient-dense whole foods are healthier than nutrient-poor processed foods. We care about our bodies and our taste buds. Minimalist cooking is smart cooking Some cookbooks are so full of strange, difficult to make recipes that you only find a couple dishes worth making more than once. Healthy, Easy, Delicious Indian Recipes is a minimalist cookbook that is different by design. Containing a small assortment of recipes that you'll want to use over and over again, it is the ideal companion for the everyday home cook. If you are looking for a cookbook that would challenge a Michelin chef, you should look elsewhere. However, if you just want to make some healthy, easy, delicious Indian food, this is the book for you.

Horror and slasher films are often dismissed for their apparent lack of sophistication and dearth of redeemable values. However, despite criticism from film snobs who turn up their noses and moralists who look down upon the genre, slasher films are more than just movies filled with gory mayhem. Such films can actually serve a purpose and offer their audiences something more than split skulls and severed heads.In Life Lessons from Slasher Films, Jessica Robinson looks at representative works that have been scaring audiences for decadesfrom Alfred Hitchcock's seminal shocker, Psycho, to the cult classic Black Christmas and iconic thrillers like The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Halloween, Friday the 13th, and Scream. In this book, Robinson examines common themes that have emerged in these films, their various sequels, and countless imitatorsa maniacal and seemingly indestructible executioner, sexual encounters that invariably lead to death, increasingly gruesome ways to slaughter helpless victims, and a lone female survivor who finds a way to vanquish the killerand looks beyond such tropes for what these films can teach us about life.From practical advice (listen to your elders) to moral platitudes (teens never learn), each chapter considers a different ';lesson' that these films teach.

A fun read for fans and scholars alike, Life Lessons from Slasher Films offers an entertaining and persuasive look at how life can imitate art, and what art can say about life.
