Another fabulous cookbook from Dana
27 Dec 2004
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I have all of Dana's cookbooks. I like all of them and recommend them without reservation. That said, this one is my favorite (so far). I have been low-carbing for about 4 years now. Dana's books keep me sane and interested in low-carbing. Some of my favorite recipes from this book include: Cheesy Chipotle Soup (p.417). It is great on a blustery day or if you have a congested nose. General Pam's Cheesecake is super easy and using different extract flavors makes it a new experience every time (p. 500). Brussel sprouts in browned butter (p. 176). I have always like them but this twist makes them really wonderful; even my hubby commented on them. Island pork chops (p. 345) and Jill's coleslaw (p. 201) are also outstanding.
I have dozens of family favorites from each of her books. I'm never at a loss for something to cook.
Can't wait to receive her new slow cooker book.

You need Dana's books
26 Sep 2004
Format:Paperback
How do I love Dana Carpender in a completely platonic low carb life saver kind of way? Let me count the ways. Her new cookbook is fabulous. If you don't have it, you simply must get it. So many great looking recipes. As soon as my copy arrived, I read it cover to cover and am about to read it again. We are trying a different recipe every night. We have tried several already and they are very good. We're gonna have another one tonight. I have all of her cookbooks and this one is fab. Her books offer a lot of variety of flavors, which is essential to keeping any way of eating interesting. I'm trying to broaden my taste horizens, and her books give me lots of options. I use her cookbooks everyday. I recommend them all the time, but I don't loan them out. I would be lost if I did! She makes low carb low effort, which makes my life significantly easier. Thanks Dana!

Great Book!
25 Sep 2004
Format:Paperback
I'm still reading the Introduction in this book, but so far I'm finding a lot of great advice and reminders. For example, Dana points out that eating low carb is a whole lifestyle and not just a quick diet. There's no finish line to losing weight. Once you reach your goal, you need to continue eating healthy for the rest of your life. If you go back to your old eating habits, you'll look like you did when you ate that way.
She warns that the low-carb processed foods that are showing up on the grocery store shelves are STILL mostly processed (low-carb) junk food. You shouldn't try to duplicate your standard American diet just by substituting low carb versions of junk food. Low carb is about getting back to basic,unprocessed, "REAL" foods and not just about counting the carbs in food. She believes in LOW carb, not no carb. She also mentions that you might need to keep an eye on calories, (although you can eat a lot more calories on low-carb than you ever could on low-fat and still lose weight).
The recipes in this book look really good. Some of the recipes listed on the back cover are Thai Beef Lettuce Wraps, UnPotato and Sausage Soup, Mexican Cabbage Soup, French Toasty Eggs, Chipotle-Cheese Fauxtatoes, Chili Relleno Casserole, Baked Sole in Creamy Curry Sauce, Swedish Meatballs, and Easy Low Carb Fudge.
I've been eating low-carb for over 6 years and am convinced that it's a very healthy way to eat. I've had my cholesterol checked 9 times in 6 years and it's improved and remains good from eating this way. It's great to be able to eat good food that fills you up and keeps you full for hours and still be able to lose weight.
This book would be very helpful to anyone following a low-carb way of eating. I would definitely recommend this book.
