The emphasis is on quick and easy in this updated edition of Sue Spitler's encyclopedia of healthy cooking. Cutting fat without sacrificing great taste means adding lots of interesting herbs and spices. But this doesn't mean that dishes have to take hours to prepare. Most of the recipes in this book can be made in 30 minutes or less and feature easy-to-find fresh ingredients. To make meal planning even more convenient, Spitler provides tips on what to prepare in advance and freeze, what to make early in the day and refrigerate, and what to do to complete the meal.

Book Description
Editorial Reviews
Review
Eleven master chefs contribute their favorite recipes to a title which presents a wide range of low-fat main course dishes as well as desserts. These aren't complicated dishes, but quick, easy recipes which lend to family appreciation. No color photos, but the easy instructions don't need embellishment and the low-fat contents aren't based on proportion but on genuinely low-fat ingredients. -- Midwest Book Review
--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Best low-fat recipes ever,
By A Customer
This review is from: 1,001 Low-Fat Recipes: Quick, Easy, Great Tasting Recipes for the Whole Family (Paperback)
I have followed many healthy diet plans throughout my life and have tried many recipes - most aren't very tasty but I suffer for the cause. Yet, this book has changed my outlook on low-fat eating. The recipes are simple and delicious. You can really serve them at a party. They give great nutritional info with each recipe. As you read through the book you'll be surprised at how enticing low-fat can be. Try the Lemon Chicken and the Leek Soup - Mmm...Mmmm.
