Customer Reviews

Great cooking

I finally found a cookbook with healthy recipes that real people would eat. Good healthy home cooking. Love it.

Great cookbook

I'm a big fan of Taste of Home publications. The pictures are great, and the recipes are easy to follow. The refried bean burrito recipe is definitely my favorite from this book, but there are a lot of other great recipes in this book, too. This book is also nice because it calls for relatively common ingredients, and nothing too terribly expensive.

Fantastic and easy recipes

I despise cooking; moreover, I absolutely hate dieting. Imagine my surprise when I found a cookbook that appeared to provide both easy and low calorie, healthy meals. Can we say, "too good to be true"? I took the chance and have been absolutely amazed! I've made a few dishes and a dessert from this book and they were extremely simple and tasty. I got my daughter interested in the book and now we're both ear-marking our next intended recipes with enthusiasm. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this book to anyone else, regardless of cooking skill or intentions. I don't believe you need to be on a restricted diet to give this a shot -- you simply don't miss the ingredients that are usually so bad for us that they substitute or leave out. Get this book! :)

Fantastic Cookbook!

You cannot go wrong with Taste of Home. This cookbook is no exception. I have always loved Taste of Home, but when I recently started to try to lose some weight, I was hesitant to make any of the usual rich, tasty recipes. Then I found "Guilt Free". It came in the mail this week and I have already made three of the recipes - each were fantastic! I would highly recommend any of Taste of Home's many cookbooks, but if you are trying to watch your weight, "Guilt Free" is the book for you - it will not disappoint.

Just what I needed.

This book is an excellent help in preparing meals for those who have to watch calories, carbo's, sugars, etc. Each recipe has notations for these and other things like diabetic exchanges...starch, fat, meat, etc. I should also note the delivery was speedy and arrived intact.
