The Low GI Diet Cookbook: 100 Simple, Delicious Smart-Carb Recipes-The Proven Way to Lose Weight and Eat for Lifelong Health (Glucose Revolution) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I liked this book for many reasons, and one of them is that it provides nutritional info for each recipe -- including, fat, carbs, protein, fiber and sodium! With so many people having other nutritional interests in addition to GI rating, this is a big plus!
It also provides color photos of almost every recipe, which I find very helpful as well. I look forward to the "Forthcoming" titles that are listed inside. If they are anything like this one, I will buy them as well.

Weight Watchers Points Plus Cookbook Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)For a cookbook based on a diet plan, this is amazing. The recipes have been 99% DELICIOUS, like other people not following the WW diet plan ask me for the recipes regularly. There is this incredible buttermilk banana bread; a refreshing fava bean, fennel and tomato salad; a pizza recipe with arugula and a fried egg that I'm trying soon, a french apple tart with rosemary that blew me away....the recipes compete with meals I order in fancy California bistro type places, and each one tells me how many points a serving has, how to improve it's "power food" status, etc.
Not only delicious, the recipes are really simple. Each one is about half a page long, with only a few steps. The pictures are enticing and true to the recipes. I was moved to write a review, I like it that much!
I have only come upon one miss in the book so far, which were some terrible buckwheat pancakes. I have a suspicion I did something wrong though, based on how far off track they were. But followed by the powerfully successful almond biscotti recipe and the flank steak with roasted corn salad I promptly forgave the authors their one failed recipe.
If you're following WW pointsplus program, this is really a must have. You can actually serve guests and they never have to know it's part of a diet.

Instant Gourmet: Delicious Meals in 20 Minutes or Less Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is my all-time favorite cookbook (and I own a ton of them). The recipes are easy to prepare and usually contain fewer than ten ingredients. I have found at least fifteen dishes that are always dependable, quick to prepare, and exceptionally popular with guests. The only downside is that very few of the recipes are particularly health-conscious -- heavy cream and butter are two of the most common ingredients. Nonetheless, I recommend this cookbook heartily to anyone who likes good food but doesn't have hours to spend in the kitchen. Too bad it is now out of print!

Easy Livin' Low-Calorie Microwave Cooking: Fast, Easy, Great-Tasting Recipes that Will Turn Your Microwave Into a Dieter's Best Friend Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased this book for myself and thought it was so useful that I bought another copy for my student workers who had decided this was the semester they were going to be serious about dieting. There is a nice variety of recipes and they are very easy to follow. Especially good for people who have limited cooking facilities and/or limited cooking time. I usually opt to do some of the prep work in the traditional way since I don't think you get the optimum flavor in the microwave. I saute or brown on the stove top, for instance. I like that the nutritional information is clearly stated and this book is especially aware of sodium content - a big problem for some. I was not clear about the browning powder talked about in some recipes. Can't find it anywhere, but the recipes for salt substitutes and dry cream mixture for creamed soups and sauces is excellent and a huge help when time is short. This is a nice addition to your dieting cookbook collection.
