Book Description

Busy People's Low-Fat Cookbook June 1, 2003

Over 300,000 copies of Busy People's Low-Fat Cookbook have already been sold! What's a busy people's recipe? It's one that has seven ingredients or less and can be cooked in 30 minutes or less. Most take only 15 to 20 minutes. Here's a cookbook with more than 240 fast and easy, homestyle, heart-healthy recipes.

When her husband's cancer created a situation in which Dawn Hall realized she had to become the family breadwinner, Dawn, a self-described food addict, turned her passion - creating quick and easy recipes for delicious heart-healthy meals - into a solution that made her self-published cookbooks a nationwide sensation. With her charm, enthusiasm, and energy, Dawn has sold more than 650,000 copies of her cookbooks, won national awards, opened doors to speaking engagements, landed her press appearances and magazine covers. She created a wildly successful cookbook franchise with a fiercely loyal following.

Each recipe in Busy People's Low-Fat Cookbook has nutritional information, preparation time, and cooking time as well as menu ideas. The book also contains instruction on how to maintain an ideal body weight and tips on saving time and money in the kitchen. It is bound in an easy-to-use hardcover concealed spiral binding.

More About the Author

Our family's personal story of triumph over tragedy is used to give God all the praise and glory with the hope that readers will feel encouraged, inspired, refreshed; and that they too can overcome the unthinkable.

Points:
1) God can do far greater things through you than you have ever thought of, dreamed of, or imagined if you allow God and His will to be #1 in your life;
2) Thankfulness is an attitude you choose to have;
3) God still does miracles;
4) All things are possible - even what appears to be the impossible is possible;
5) Keep your eyes totally focused on God lest you become overwhelmed and depressed.

Sit back, laugh and relax while reading this amazing and true story behind the success of award winning author and inspirational speaker, Dawn Hall. With humor, energy and insight she shares her most intimate and personal details of how she triumphed over such tragedies as her husband's brain cancer, two house fires, financial bondage, depression, fighting the government, and the loss of her loving 38 year old husband. "I am an ordinary woman whom God has done extraordinary things through, far greater than I have ever hoped of, dreamed of or imagined! If God can do it through me, He can do it through you, too!"

Without knowing how to type, use a computer or anything about publishing Dawn Hall sold over 650,000 of her self-published cookbooks and won three national awards including 1996, 1998 Best Cookbooks of the Year award by North American Book Dealers exchange, 2000 Pinnacle award. Her amazing story of triumphing over tragedies such as cancer, financial bondage, two house fires and her young husband's death is proof that God is still doing miracles. Her faith, and persistence not to give up trying, is a source of hope, strength and encouragement to anyone who has ever felt down, discouraged, in financial bondage or has been fighting cancer and struggling in life.

5.0 out of 5 stars QUICK, EASY AND YUMMY!!, January 9, 2004
By 
Terri Bogden (Newark, IL United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Busy People's Low-Fat Cookbook (Spiral-bound)
I bought this cookbook about a week and 1/2 ago. I have cooked out of it nonstop (breakfast, lunch and dinner) since I received it. If you are looking to eat low fat and not give up taste, and not spend a lot of time in the kitchen, this book is it!!!! The recipes are super easy (all 30 minutes or less, and 7 ingredients or less), and all very low fat and good! My family hasn't been disappointed yet. I recommend the pineapple snack cake, it takes 2 minutes to make, 20 minutes to bake and tastes just like pineapple upside down cake with only 1 gram of fat!!!! Try this book, it is worth it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great low fat recipes that are easy!, March 20, 2005
This review is from: Busy People's Low-Fat Cookbook (Spiral-bound)
I have never made anything from this cookbook that was not delicious. I have enjoyed having it and I use it religiously to stay on my diet. Using Dawn Hall's recipes I have lost 30lbs. since January. I recommend all of her cookbooks to my friends, but this one is great to get started with.

4.0 out of 5 stars Thumbs up from a bachelor cook, February 4, 2006
This review is from: Busy People's Low-Fat Cookbook (Spiral-bound)
I freely admit most of the time I cook out of necessity rather than for pleasure. I've found this book to be extremely helpful in my struggle to keep myself fed, happy, and healthy. All of the recipes meet my requirements for simple cooking: they're quick and easy, they don't require a lot of exotic ingredients, and, for the most part, they taste good. I also appreciate the fact that all recipes list nutritional information; that's a big advantage during those periods (alas, rather rare) when I find myself in the "healthy eating" mode.

If you want to impress friends, family, and significant others with culinary masterworks, you'd probably do better to look elsewhere for your inspiration. If you want simple, quick, and inexpensive meals for nights in the middle of the week, this book is an excellent resource.
