Review: Large variety of recipes which is good. All the ones I have made so far have been very good. Some of the recipes have called for ingredients that aren’t always readily available but otherwise the recipes have been easy to follow.I recieved the book on time and in good condition. The table of contents
shows the value of this book. Many good recipes–especally the treatment of fish preparation,this was of interest to me.
On the whole it I believe it was a great purchase.
Bill MackayI recently purchased this book since I was out of ideas when it came to healthy, good tasting recipes. I do not believe in no-carb diets, diet pills, etc… I belive in doing it the hard way - eating well balanced meals and exercising.
The book is amazing. Unlike other “diet” books, there are normal meals in this one… for example, hamburgers, 3 cheese pasta, etc… the meals you normally can’t eat on a diet have been converted into nutritionally sound meals! The best part of all, the food tasts great!
A word of caution however, these recipes are not good for people who don’t want to chop vegtables. Many recipes use finely chopped veggies to reduce calories/fat in meal, while still being filling. If chopping isn’t for you, invest in a food processor. It will make all the difference. I bought this book for my Mother because she does the cooking for my father whom has had a heart attack in the past. She uses it just about everyday and we all wouldn’t even know it was diet food. We honestly have enjoyed the receipes she has used. Thank you for amazon recommendations that I saw it in. it is a good read also.Lots of good recipies and easy preparation. Worth ordering. Great help for newly diagnosed heart patient.
