Review of What's Cooking : Low Fat (What's Cooking Series) (Hardcover)

This is one of my favorite cookbooks! Every recipe I've tried is fabulous and I've made some of them so often that I have them memorized.I really love the Pan-cooked Pork Medallions w/ Apples & Cider, Strawberry Roulade, Red Roast Pork w/ Bell Peppers (on the cover) and the Broiled Chicken w/ Lemon & Honey. The Red Fruits w/ Foaming Sauce is very simple to make and very impressive to dinner guests.
The recipes are simple and use ingredients that you can find at any grocery store. Most recipes are no more than 5 or 6 steps and include color photos of some of the steps--how to cut the meat, folding in ingredients, etc. I love this because I'm a visual person and I like to see what I need to do instead of just reading about it.
There is also a beautiful, full-page, color picture of the final product FOR EACH RECIPE!This is wonderful because you have an idea of what the finished product should look like and how you can present it. I highly recommend this cookbook! It proves that low fat does not mean no taste or flavor!

I own both of the High Fit - Low Fat cookbooks (regular and vegetarian).The books are good for both novice and experienced chefs.Although I own many cookbooks, I do the majority of my cooking from the High Fit - Low Fatrecipes.
The recipes call for healthy ingredients.The recipes arecreated in such a way that my family can't tell the healthy version fromthe less-than-healthy version, except that mine tastes better.Cooking hasnever been so easy and nutritious.

Review of Busy People's Low-Fat Cookbook (Spiral-bound)

I bought this cookbook about a week and 1/2 ago.I have cooked out of it nonstop (breakfast, lunch and dinner) since I received it.If you are looking to eat low fat and not give up taste, and not spend a lot of time in the kitchen, this book is it!!!!The recipes are super easy (all 30 minutes or less, and 7 ingredients or less), and all very low fat and good!My family hasn't been disappointed yet.I recommend the pineapple snack cake, it takes 2 minutes to make, 20 minutes to bake and tastes just like pineapple upside down cake with only 1 gram of fat!!!! Try this book, it is worth it!

Review of 1,001 Low-Fat Desserts (Paperback)

Anyone who enjoys desserts but is concerned with fat intake should buy this book. The recipes are varied, ranging from classics to new inventions.The difficulty levels also vary, so it is easy to choose a quick and simplerecipe when in a hurry. This is a good reference that will be used for manyyears. Results are predictable and the taste is satisfactory.
However,one cannot expect these recipes to produce the sinfully rich and delicioustaste of high fat recipes. After all, fat adds the flavor! So, the butterand sugar recipes will still remain number 1 in my heart.

Product Description
With 1,001 Low-Fat Desserts, it's easy to make dreamy frosted cakes, deep-dish pies, tangy tarts, heavenly cream puffs, sugary cobblers, crunchy crisps, fluffy cheesecakes, custards, and souffls. Many favorite recipes are here, plus lots of new ones to try, including: Sour Cream Chocolate Layer Cake, Honey-Walnut Pumpkin Pie, Macadamia Nut Cheesecake, Coeurla Crme, Baklava, Viennese Apple Strudel, Mango Cobbler, and Key Lime Squares.
