Customer Reviews

This Cookbook is a Winner

I have to say that this cookbook is the one low carb cookbook I keep coming back to again and again. I have never read one that has clearer directions, and is more enjoyable or well laid out. I am also baffled by the comments of the reviewers that say the book relies too heavily on soy - there are very few recipes with soy in them, or if they do call for soy, a substitute is always suggested for those avoiding soy. Did those reviewers actually read this book?The only thing missing from the book is some color photos of prepared dishes, but as the directions are so crystal clear, this is really not a problem.

I can't believe I can have this!

I have always loved sweets. It is what usually sabotaged my dieting attempts and my attempts to live a more healthly life. I made the Holiday Carmels from this book and I knew I was hooked. I have used both books by this author and found the information to be very helpful in watching my carbohydrate intake. I feel as if I can throw out all my other cook books with this one and her first one on my shelf!

Great Cookbook

Wonderful recipes, simple and easy to use, good instructions. I use this cookbook all the time. My family really likes the bacon and salmon bake. I love the fake fudge. Every recipe I have tried has been easy and delicious!

Doesn't get any easier than this!

I have to say that I use Sharron's 'lo-carb' cuisine book almost every day. I've had parties, holidays, you name it and have used this book to everyone's delight! Really, I haven't found one recipe we haven't loved yet.When I started eating low carb I quickly became bored with what I thought my options were. I felt discouraged because I couldn't imagine eating another cheeseburger, but I liked the health benefits this new way of eating was giving me. I picked up this cookbook, and all of that changed. There were so many tasty options available now- I couldn't wait to start trying recipies. The Fake Fudge and Silky Choco-Peanut Butter Pie are lifesavers!!!The funny thing is, before I found this book I hated cooking. In fact, I just about knew how to boil water, literally, and that was it. My whole family is amazed how I've become "domesticated" now that I cook/bake all the time, but the truth is I have so much fun using Sharron's recipies and loving what turns out!!! You will too- I highly recommend this book!

I use this cookbook all the time & I have lots of cookbooks

I have at least 12 low carb cookbooks and have checked many out of the local library. I have three favorites I use all the time and this is one of them. I love that the recipes are all under 10 carbs. (I've actually gone through some of my cookbooks with highlighters so I can find a particularly low carb recipe fast; green for 0-3 carbs, yellow for over 3-7 carbs, pink for over 7 carbs). I didn't cooked before going low carb and every recipe I've tried from this book has turned out great. Some I use regularly because they are so simple and delicious - like fake fudge and shake and bake chicken legs. If you only want to buy a few low carb cookbooks make sure this is one of them. CC
