Customer Reviews

The greatest!

I own many low carb cookbooks (Fran Mccullogh, Linda Gassenheimer, Atkins cookbooks, etc,) and honestly none of them compare to this book. this is just the best. With useful information, DELICIOUS and un-complicated recipies, that fit perfectly when doing Atkins or another low carb method to lose weight or as a new adopted lifestyle.Highly recommended, I just LOVE this book.

Best of the Low Carb Books

I own 10 low carb cookbooks (Atkins,Heller, Schwarzbein, Donna Johnson,Fran McCullough, Lauri Randolph, Gassenheimer,Doyen, Donna Rodnitzky)and this one is the best! The recipes are tasty and very well written and formatted. Some of the other books contain a lot of gourmet-ish recipes I would not normally make, others have recipes that are too boring and tasteless. The Ultimate Low Carb Diet Book gets it just right. Main Course sections include Rise and Shine (breakfast), Hot and Spicy, On the Grill, Exotic Flavors, In the Main, Strictly vegetarian. These are recipes I would chose to make even if I wasn't on a low carb diet. She also has about a dozen dessert recipes. I could not stay on the diet without this book!

Amazing

This cookbook is simply amazing. When it arrived, I dog-earred 80% of the pages immediately and have been working my way through each of them ever since. There isn't one recipe I haven't loved and I'm eating better, not to mention losing weight, as never before. The recipes are easy to follow and for someone who never cooked, this has been a revelation. I enjoy cooking now; the time spent doing so is rewarding and fun. Low-carb eating makes total sense and this cookbook makes it all worthwhile.

The Power Protein Diet REVEALED!!!

Finally, someone has the common sense to give those of us metabolically "unfortunate" types a GREAT book so we can make fabulous LOW carb HIGH protein diets at home.If you're like me, you're just as frustrated when you learn most of the current protein diet books only tells us to "Eat meat. Don't eat bread, pasta or rice." (Like: Duh!) Then this is cook book is for you! The recipes are easy to read, and even easy to prepare. Even if you're all thumbs in the kitchen, you'll benefit from this protein cook book as I did. My hats off to this author! :-) I mean no offense to the Eades books (authors), but there's lots of us out here that couldn't care less about "arocondic acid" or "good or bad acosnoids." (Even though I spelled them wrong.)We just want to know the foods we should eat, and those we shouldn't if we want to lose weight.This book DELIVERS! I've lost 12 pounds this month alone and I'm on my way to losing another 60 pounds to get me back to 190 lbs by August 2002. WOO-HOO! :-)

Healthy, Wealthy and Wise!

A great book, through and through. Ever since I got my copy, I can't stop cooking the delicious recipes. Buy two copies for yourself - one could be for you, one could be for your significant other! Another plus: very witty writing, a rarity with cookbooks. Highly recommended!
