Customer Reviews

Basic healthy Meals for those who do not want processed foods.

I cannot say we have loved this book. If you have not eatten natural pure food and want to get back to good healthy low fat and not processed then this is a great book. Time and preperations are needed and it does cost more to buy all these good healthy foods. That point is really quite said that junk food is cheaper than healthy food.

Who knew there were so many tasty and totally healthy meals!

This is an amazing cookbook. So many recipies I've found that included Splenda and other non-sugar sweetners. But this one doesn't have that. It's all tasty, whole natural foods. You can have bread and pasta and it's low calorie and you can even make it yourself easily. She took dishes that I love and made them much more healthy and still super delicious! Instead of counting calories, all you have to do is count the starts. Each dish is rated from 1 to 3 stars. 3 stars are for the meals that will help you lose weight. 2 stars are for the meals that you eat to maintain your weight. 1 star is for meals when you've lost the weight and want to treat yourself thin.There are about 15-20 chapters of different meals like Soups, Sandwiches, Meat, Fish, Poultry, and even Desserts! (And yes, there are 3 star desserts!) I totally recommend this book!
