Product Description

Product Description

Imagine savoring three delicious, satisfying meals every day without worrying about counting calories or calculating fat grams. Now you can enjoy hundreds of combinations of tempting, flavorful breakfasts, lunches, dinners--even desserts--all for only 1200 calories a day.

Every dinner contains no more than 400 calories per serving. Each breakfast and lunch contains only 350 calories per serving, and every delicious dessert contains just 100 calories per serving. All you have to do is select the meals you want to combine for any particular day.

Choose from such low-calorie offerings as:

  • Buttermilk pancakes with blueberry sauce, canadian bacon, and sliced oranges
  • Roast beef salad with blue cheese in pitas and fresh apple slices
  • Sliced turkey with mushroom gravy, whipped potatoes, peppered peas, and apricot halves
  • Raspberry-kissed pears in phyllo nests

Each low-calorie, low-fat recipe includes easy-tofollow instruction and fat grams per serving. Many recipes can be prepared in 15 minutes or less.

2.0 out of 5 stars Aaaarghh!, 14 Aug 2006
By Javics (Scotland) - See all my reviews
This book seemed to be exactly what I was looking for - a recipe book that would count calories for me and not lecture me on how to eat. The recipes sound wonderful, everything from tomato grits, to pizza quiche to cherry crumble - and that's just the breakfasts!

Hang on - _Grits???_ Yep, that's right, this book is so American it doesn't even have a UK price on the cover. Fine for novels, but hopeless if trying to buy ingredients. Anyone know where I can get a 10-ounce can of refrigerated pizza crust dough, or a 16-ounce can of pitted sour cherries?

Sadly, although this book is an excellent idea and has a huge variety of recipes to suit all palates (I really do want cherry crumble for breakfast), until a UK version is published I would not recommend buying this in the UK.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not a useful book - especially for the non-US buyer, 24 Jun 2005
By Mrs. A. J. Shingler (Stoke, Staffs) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Although this recipe book DID have a number of things in it that were interesting and fun, there were just too many items not available to us here in the UK (fat-free soured cream to name just one). Furthermore, there were just too many ingredients in there - often more than 10 items for a main meal which is not bad for a special occasion, but downright irritating for a quick after-work dinner.

I read this book through, and I can't say I didn't like it, but only as an 'ideas' book. Unfortunately, it will go in my pile of books for the charity shop.

1.0 out of 5 stars Very disappointing, 20 Jan 2009
By Christineanne (Bournemouth UK) - See all my reviews
I feel that at least 50% of the joy of eating is what you see - quite hard to know if the end result is as expected when there are no pictures.
