Healthy Exchanges

I will buy again from this vendor. Books arrived in a timely manner and in good condition.

Can't go wrong!

A penny! You can get this book for a penny and there will be enough recipes here to keep you cooking for months! I recommend this book, as well as the "Healthy Exchanges Lifetime Plan", to anyone! Especially if you have kids or a reluctant spouse. They are not going to know that you are cooking healthy food, only that they love it!

Don't Use the "Diet" Word

Being overweight, I hate to even hear the word "diet." I have tried diets of all kinds and I just can't stay with them because the foods are not satisfying to me. JoAnna Lund's "Healthy Exchanges Cookbook: It's Not a Diet, It's a Way of Life" is a good book for tips on life and has recipes that satisfy even a big guy like me. I have noticed that since I have been using her recipes, I am shedding a few pounds and without doing the diet word. If you need to get a few pounds off then join me in using this book as a guide.

The "classic" Joanna Lund cookbook.

I have lost 82 pounds with Joanna Lund's recipes. I have five of her cookbooks and this is my favorite. There are some excellent, real food recipes in this book that my whole family loves. She makes it easy too; the ingredients are easy to find in your store and the meals are made in minutes. Try it, you won't be disappointed!!

Even my picky husband loves recipies from this cookbook!

Finally -- a low-fat, healthy cookbook for real people that uses real ingredients! No swordfish or sundried tomatoes here! Just about every recipie I've tried has been a winner. The dessert section is especially wonderful. I can still satisfy my chocaholic tendencies with these recipies. Even my 8-year old son loves the Blueberry Mountain Cheesecake. The recipies are simple, not requiring a large number of ingredients. Almost all of them can be completed in less than one hour. Joanna gives lots of helpful hints at the beginning of the book, even listing her favorite brands of many ingredients and what utensils you'll need. She gives lots of shortcuts for those of us who find it hard to fit in cooking at the end of a long work day. I'm sure I'll be adding more of her books to my kitchen. The very best part is I've lost about 7 pounds using her recipies and hints for healthy eating
