(More customer reviews)
I happened upon this book and thought I'd give it a shot. That was a year ago and I still use it a few times a week. The food is normal and delicious! My boyfriend loved almost everything I made from this book because it's stuff you would normally make. There are a few new things you will probably want to try, but also, if you have a favorite meal such as chicken cacciatore, beef stroganoff, or cheesecake this book has the recipe and shows you how to make it healthful and still delicious. I use the weight watchers points system and had no trouble converting recipes. It also gives exchange, fat and calorie values for dieters who use a different program. I highly recommend it! It's worth it!

Diabetes Meals on $7 a Day-or Less: How to Plan Healthy Menus without Breaking the Bank Review

Diabetes Meals on $7 a Day-or Less: How to Plan Healthy Menus without Breaking the Bank
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is a cookbook of great everyday recipes. My family is kind of meat and potatoes and doesn't like that "gourmet" stuff most cookbooks have. The peach cobble-up, apple crisp and chicken and dumplings are awesome and fairly simple to make. You might have to start out buying some of the lower fat or sugar substitute ingredients but most of the ingredients are regular pantry items. I definitely recommend this book if you are looking for some healthy recipe alternatives to old fashioned cooking. I usually buy a cookbook, use it once or twice and it winds up on a shelf, but not this one. I use it at least once a week and sometimes 3 or 4 times.

I originally checked this book out of the library and, after renewing it for the max number of times, ended up purchasing it on Amazon. Not only great for the medical issues it addresses, it is also a great cookbook for healthy eating. I'm addicted to the granola bars on page 110!

It's easy to stay the high-fiber course when readers find chapters dedicated to every craving imaginable including international cuisines, from Cajun and Mexican to Italian and Asian.

4 Ingredients: More Than 400 Quick, Easy, and Delicious Recipes Using 4 or Fewer Ingredients Review

4 Ingredients: More Than 400 Quick, Easy, and Delicious Recipes Using 4 or Fewer Ingredients
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
`4 Ingredients' has as its' purpose meals that are quick to prepare, using, of course only 4 ingredients and fewer utensils so there is less time used for clean up. There are optional hints, such as this freezes well or good to serve with....
There are recipes for; breakfast, appetizers, sauces and salsas, lunch, sides, main dishes, desserts, for children, and drinks. A list of staples for the pantry is included, combination meals, and home tips - like put baby teething gel on your eyebrows to avoid pain when plucking them.
Some recipes turn out not quite the way you assume they should taste like, such as scones using lemonade in the ingredients. Others are good ideas that turn out to be hits like curry in deviled eggs. These are simplistic meals, but many recipes such as the ever popular spinach dip suffers from a lack of spring onions and chopped water chestnuts since that would have put too many ingredients in it. The flavors are not dense or complex, but for simple fast meals it does what it sets out to do. With a bit more time and effort they could be so much more, but then they wouldn't be as fast or simple - the choice is yours.
These are very undemanding recipes, a beginning cook or someone who really does not enjoy the process would probably find this a useful book.

This is a wonderful book. It has useful information about diabetes, including the effects of stress. It contains many useful charts. One of the best features of this book are popular recipies that have been adapted for a diabetic diet. You don't have to sacrifice enjoyment in order to eat well.

If you are on some kind of Healthy plan and are thinking of using this book to help you plan your eating when you are not at home, think again. The last revision of the book was in 1991 and several of the Restarurants and Brands listed no longer exist. Of those that do, watch out. This book includes listings for menu items which no longer exist, or which were changes within the last few years.
Unless this book is updated, this is not a good resource.

This cookbook has been our favorite for the last couple of years. At first glance, the recipes appear to be too simple to be exciting, but somehow they pack a lot of complexity and flavor into a few ingredients. It is the PERFECT cookbook for everyday after work cooking, but there are also plenty of recipes that you will want to serve your guests too. Their grilled flank steak recipe is a standard at every summer party I throw, and it gets rave reviews every time.

In the wake of the recent flood of no-carb and low-carb diet plans, the Joslin Diabetes Quick and Easy Cookbook lives up to its name and then some! The recipies included are truly simple to make without a trip to the grocery for new and unusual ingredients. Since each recipie is given for 1 to 4 people, you can try as many as you like without fear of unwanted leftovers.

We first checked this book out from our public library to test it and now we can't live without it!
The recipes are delicious and real-life friendly. We do not have diabetes in our household, but want to put healthy nutritious foods on the table.
In my view, any recipe that passes diabetic guidelines will keep the appetite satisfied and fuel our bodies appropriately. But most importantly to us, these recipies appeal to our senses in making mealtime a pleasure with foods we want to enjoy again and again.

The Spunky Coconut Grain-Free Baked Goods and Desserts: Gluten Free, Casein Free, and Often Egg Free Review

The Spunky Coconut Grain-Free Baked Goods and Desserts: Gluten Free, Casein Free, and Often Egg Free
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Kelly Brozyna is the recipe developer, mom and voice behind the blog The Spunky Coconut [...]A year ago I bought her first cookbook, "The Spunky Coconut Cookbook: Gluten-free, Casein-free Sugar-Free," and have enjoyed it immensely. Needless to say, I have been anticipating the release of this, her second book!
If you follow a grain-free, gluten-free, casein-free, dairy-free, egg-free diet or any combination thereof or are trying to include in your diet low-glycemic, nutritionally dense foods, this cookbook is for you. You'll find that the recipes call for power-packed ingredients like coconut, chia seed, hemp seed, legumes and nuts. If you or someone you love is diabetic, celiac, lactose intolerant or following the gluten-free/casein-free autistic diet, this book is for you! All 80 recipes are gluten-free and casein-free. 50 of them are egg-free. If the alternative ingredients used in many of the recipes intimidate you, fear not, Kelly explains what each ingredient is, why it needs to be in your diet and where to find it.
If you follow The Spunky Coconut blog ([...]) or have Kelly's first cookbook, you probably know a little about the journey she has been on with her family. Together through diet and biomedical treatments, they are overcoming celiac disease, gluten-intolerance, ADD and autism with great success.
I have had "The Spunky Coconut Cookbook Grain-free Baked Goods & Desserts" in hand for a week and have tried the following recipes:
* Coyote Cookie Bars: Heavenly grain-free goodness. For being grain-free they sure taste like whole wheat! I couldn't get enough of them.
* Chai Granola: Packed with nutrient-dense walnuts and chia seed. My kids enjoyed this oat-free, grain-free granola on Steamboat Yogurt.
* Steamboat Yogurt: YES, you can make yogurt using nut milk! Kelly shows us how.
* Divine Vegan Fudge Cake with Macadamia Frosting: "Divine" this dessert was. And the Macadamia Frosting--wow!
I highly recommend this book if you are trying make the switch from processed, high-sugar baked goods and treats to the more wholesome variety. Kelly's recipes are innovative and easy!
I also like that Kelly photographs and designs her cookbooks, front to back, inside and out and has them printed in the USA.
