From the author of the spectacularly successful Lean and Lovin' It, a brawny collection of big-flavored, fat-reduced recipes for men who love to eat. A once overweight guy who never met a food he didn't love, Don Mauer learned the hard way that most low-fat cookbooks don't appeal to meat-and-potatoes taste buds and come with skimpy portions that may work for New York fashion models but leave men hungry. This cookbook is different, written for men...
This book, along with Don Mauer's prior cookbook, Lean and Lovin It, helped me lose over 70 pounds. A lot of low fat cookbooks really aren't written by people who like to eat or cook, and it shows.

I have been using low-fat cookbooks for about 10 years and this is the best low-fat cookbook I have ever owned (this is impressive, due to the fact that I probable own 50 low-fat cookbooks). Every recipe I have tried so far is wonderful. The servings are big enough for both my husband and me. This is not just a man's cookbook, it is a cookbook for anyone who likes to eat and cook.

Buy this book and treat yourself to meals that are so good you won't even notice that they're good *for* you, as well! Especially try Don's magic on his Never Better Roast Pork Loin. It's absolutely fantastic. Cruise over to the Casserole section and try his exceptional Macaroni and Cheese...this book will keep you busy! Don's pleasant, conversational style makes it seem like he's in the kitchen with you, prompting...

At long last, a realistic low fat cookbook. Hurray for Don Mauer! I have tried several of the recipes in this book and each one has been wonderful. The lasagna is fabulous, and my family loved the caesar salad. Some of the ingredients may seem unusual, but trust the author and go with it. You won't be disappointed. You'll be pleasantly surprised by the generous portion sizes too. This book is a winner.
