What is a good diet-based nutritional cookbook?

I’m looking for one that has lots of nutritional information and tips. I’d really like organic, or something using a lot of vegis and natural foods. I can’t seem to find a good one! Thanks!

well one that i started using as a wedding resolution was ‘the biggest loser’ cookbook! i haven’t really delved into it too much though. weigh watchers also has a good cookbook which includes nutritional information and most betty crocker cookbooks include this too.

if you are interested in organic cookbooks, ‘food to live by’ and ‘the organic cook’s bible’ are supposed to be pretty good though i haven’t tried them.

i have included links below for all the cookbooks i mentioned, amazon is a pretty good source and makes for very easy ordering.
