Tasty, Colorful, and Healthy - You Have it All Here

Until I found this book I believed that eating low fat meals was equal to insipid and flavorless, but this elegant cookbook is full with Tasty, Colorful, and Healthy dishes. Not only will you find recipes, but also nutritional analysis, cooking and preparation techniques for low-fat foods. The book is a must have. It is beautifully crafted, filled with photographs, and step-by-step recipes.

Fabulous Food

Discouraged by the serious books of low fat cooking I had to peruse when my husband was put on a low colesterol diet I was thrilled to find this colorful book with delicious and easy recipes. I like to cook with unusual, fresh ingredients and this book has plenty while including everyday ideas for lovely food presentation. Quark and fromage frais or no fat milk powder, it's all there. There seems to be no compromise in flavor - who needs fat when they can have intensely flavored juices and vegetable stocks spiking their meals.My husband suggested I just begin at the beginning of the book and we could work our way through!

A feast for the eyes and the taste buds

When you look at the pictures in this book, you will instantly recognize that you are not giving up any stars by eating low fat. These dishes are delectable! She also gives some great advice on how to incorporate great tasting low-fat food into your life through new techniques and new equipment. You'll love such dishes as grilled vegetable lasagna or garlic and lemon roasted potatoes. Bon Apetite

Tempts the tastebuds while keeping the waistline in check

Excellent recipes for the starter low-fat cook. Plenty of taste and colour to tempt anyone into the healthier lifestyle. Initially begrudging not being able to achieve the flavours I was familiar with in my old-style cooking, I am now an enthusiastic experimenter with these recipes.

The best low-fat cookbook ever!

Sue Kreitzman, London-based author of numerous fine cookbooks has really outdone herself with Low Fat for Life. Over the past few years, Kreitzman has been a leader in developing the idea of a low fat diet as the ideal means to maintaining optimal health. A key component of her approach is making low fat foods really delicious, attractive to the eye, and easily prepared by the novice cook. She has accomplished all this here. The book is beautifully written and illustrated, and the recipes are incredibly delicious, healthful, and easy to prepare. Bravo to Sue Kreitzman for a really first-rate cookbook.
