The Slim Gourmet Cookbook

By Barbara Gibbons

Book Overview

How would you like to feast on such meals as Cheese Omelet Florentine, Flank Steak Bordelaise, or Sole Stuffed with Crabmeat? And what about dessert? Can you see yourself digging into Spiced Chocolate Rice Pudding or Apple Cheddar Cheesecake.(2) With Barbara Gibbons help you can welcome back those comfort foods and taste bud treats that you thought you had bid farewell to forever. Well known for her syndicated Slim Gourmet column, Gibbons shows you how to take those favorite recipes -- the ones filled with dangerous things like chocolate, cheese, and steak, to name a few -- and edit out the unnecessary fats, starches, and sugars, while leaving the taste intact.

Slim Gourmet Cookbook

I bought this book because my old one was falling apart from so much use. I have used these recipes for many years. They are simple to make and I have not found one I did not like. I was able to lose weight by cooking dinner from this cookbook every night. This is a book that was published long ago but the recipes are wonderful. Since it is not a new book it does not include the sugar content which people nowadays would like to know. This does not bother me because they are still low calorie recipes. People who care about how many grams of sugar a recipe has usually can tell which ones work for them. You can not go wrong with this book.
