I'm not a fan of cooking on a weekday after work, and thought I'd have a quick look at this. There was nothing (other than strawberries with balsamic and yoghurt - cooked) that stood out.
It had things like pea soup, veggie tart, casseroles, salad dressing, mash, tzatziki, frittata - basically pretty much any recipe where you have either cream or milk that can be substituted by plain yoghurt. As to the strawberries, they looked great, but the sludge colour of the cooked yoghurt/balsamic mix was revolting. Like a bird had flown past and had had an accident on them!
I really wouldn't bother.

Good Recipes, Some a Bit Too Time Consuming for Week Night Cooking
14 Aug 2011
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is a cookbook that features about 20 recipes that include yogurt as an ingredient. The recipes are interesting and varied--everything from roast pork to strawberry pancakes. The recipes are organized by the day of the week (i.e. Mexican casserole and berry parfait dessert on Monday, spicy yogurt chicken and cranberry slaw on Thursday, etc.)
The premise of this book is that the recipes are simple, quick and easy enough to be a cinch to whip up after a long day at work. If that's the case, then I don't completely agree with their recipe choices. For example, Wednesday's recipe selection is a spinach pie that requires twelve ingredients, at least 20 minutes of prep time (by my estimates), over 40 minutes of baking time and about 10 minutes of cooling time. My feeling is that a dinner that requires almost an hour and a half to get on the table and requires lots of kitchen clean up (graters, several mixing bowls, pie pans, etc.) isn't that great a choice for "an easy relaxed meal".
Many of the recipes in this book require over 10 ingredients, involve activities such as baking from scratch and use a lot of different bowls, baking pans, etc. which leads to lots of clean up.
However, the recipes do look appetizing and people who enjoy cooking as a way to unwind after a long day of work will probably really enjoy them. Cooks who want dinner on the table in 30 minutes or less and don't want a lot of kitchen clean up afterward might not enjoy the menus in this cookbook.

I didn't know yogurt could go into so many dishes!

The dish that surprised me the most.. was the yogurt mashed potatoes! That one.. I can't wait to try out on my menfolk! I love yogurt.. but, I'm the only one in the house that will eat it. So, maybe.. just MAYBE.. I can sneak some healthy stuff into their food.. and they'll NEVER be the wiser, eh?!! Shhhhhhhhh!

I think ever I could make them

Dinners Made EasyI think this is a good little cookbook. Of course all the recipes use yogurt. Yes some of the recipes have 12 ingredients but they are common ones like
onions, garlic, cider vinegar, white vinegar, cumin, honey, salt, yogurt, parsley. I don't even cook with a lot of spices and herbs and I have most
of the stuff. And even if I would have to buy something they're not ingredients that you would buy and never use again. Although I never made pancakes with oat bran so I don't know if I would buy that.
