A great introduction to low-fat cooking, 8 April 2000
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Betty Crockeras New Low-Fat, Low-Cholesterol Cookb Ook (Betty Crocker Home Library) (Hardcover)
After my husband had emergency heart bypass surgery and we were suddenly plunged into a low-fat lifestyle, I looked at almost every low-fat cookbook in print. This one is my favorite. There are full-page color photos and a complete nutritional analysis for each recipe. The recipes are easy and taste good, and don't use weird ingredients like pureed prunes or carob powder. The Lemon Meringue Cake with Strawberries was a big hit - I plan to try out the Chocolate Swirl Cheesecake, too. Overall, a very easy introduction to a different way of life.

Fabulous!, 23 May 2002
By C. M. Ries - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Betty Crocker's Low-fat, Low-cholesterol Cooking Today (Hardcover)
My husband and I have both recently been diagnosed with high cholesterol and could both lose some weight. I purchased this cookbook from Amazon.com and have been trying each of the recipes. I have been very highly surprised, thinking that if it was low-fat or low-cholesterol, I would have to saccrifice taste in my cooking. Not so. This cookbook offers wonderfully, easy recipes which are so delicious. It offers nutrition info on each recipe, as well as the time it will take to cook the meal (most under 30 minutes). Every recipe we've tried (and we're going to try them all) has been great. My husband doesn't even notice that it's healthy! The recipes are also very simple to make. I go through the book and make my shopping list from the ingredients of the recipes I want to put on my menu for the week. Some of our favorites have been: The Cajun Mustard Pork Chops, Hearty Beef and Veggies, and Lemon Dill Shrimp. You'll be happy if you get this recipe book.

Wonderfully Simple and Tasteful!, 16 April 2003
By MI_Hiker - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Betty Crocker's Low-fat, Low-cholesterol Cooking Today (Hardcover)
This book is packed not only with yummy recipes but also with great information regarding Cholesterol, Fat, and Calories. Just tried the chocolate brownies and they are wonderful!!! They definitely don't taste low calorie and low cholesterol!
Each recipe is listed as being either Low Fat, Low Cholesterol, and/or Low Calorie so no matter what your diet needs you'll find recipes you love. Most of the recipes are low in all 3 areas, even the desserts!!!
This book is worth it for the nutritional information alone but please make sure and try the chocolate brownies!!!
