2.0 out of 5 stars Should be "some things" low carb, April 17, 2003
By 
Doug Trouten (Crystal, MN USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Everything Low-Carb Cookbook: 300 Delicious Recipes to Help Reduce Your Carbohydrates and Stay Healthy (Everything (Cooking)) (Paperback)
Some of the recipes in this book are keepers, but a lot of them make you wonder if they've really thought through the low-carb idea. For instance, there's a recipe for "Glazed Bananas." Bananas by themselves are off-limits for most low-carbers, but this recipe suggests adding honey to the mix. At 20 carbs per serving this treat is described as "moderate."

Nutritional reporting is minimal. No calorie counts are reported for recipes. Carb counts include fiber, and fiber is not reported on its own, so good luck figuring out net impact carbs.

Dana Carpender's 500 Low-Carb Recipes is a much better bet.

This is a great book because the recipes are creative, easy to prepare, and very flavorful. I had a dinner party using some of the recipes, and all of my friends went out and bought the book. We're groupies!

1.0 out of 5 stars Hardly low at all, January 25, 2010

This review is from: The Everything Low-Carb Cookbook: 300 Delicious Recipes to Help Reduce Your Carbohydrates and Stay Healthy (Everything (Cooking)) (Paperback)
Most of the recipes are rated moderate and a lot of the serving sizes are ridiculous! 11 oz are supposed to feed 10 people??? many unacceptable items, too much flour and pineapple, too little nutrition info, and unclear info. I'm still not sure if the first recipe is 25 servings total or per ball, as it says to stick one in the freezer for unexpected guests!! Another recipe has 1/2 pound of chicken feeding 4. Very unreal.
