This review is from: 100 Low Fat Chicken & Turkey Recipes: The Complete Book of Food Counts Cookbook Series (Paperback)

This book has a lot of good recipes that are very delicious. However, if you're on a diet and watching calories and sodium in addition to fat content, be sure to review what's in each recipe. A good portion of these recipes are low-fat but still high in calories and/or sodium. So just be careful.
One other observation; they give you a recipe for chicken stock at the beginning of the book, which looks pretty good. Problem is, it seems like nearly every recipe in the book requires the use of it. You can also use canned chicken stock, but then you have an even bigger sodium problem. If you want to avoid the use of chicken stock, it really limits the # of recipes you can use from this book.
