5.0 out of 5 stars Delicious and Easy!, July 2, 2000

This review is from: Fat-Free & Easy: Great Meals in Minutes: No Added Fat, No Cholesterol, No Animal Ingedients (Paperback)

What a find! For anyone looking for easy, tasty, low fat vegetarian recipes, this book is a "must have." Banana Dream Pie, Tofu Cheesecake, moist cornbread, zesty mushroom soup...all fabulous recipes that can be made in minutes. The majority of the ingredients used are available in regular grocery stores, which is helpful. I have 83 vegetarian cookbooks and this is one of my absolute favorites - because of its simplicity, consistently good recipes and because the recipes are fat free. By the way, it's vegan (no dairy, eggs, or any other animal products).

I have had this for a week and have already tried 3 of the recipes. Most of the recipes are very good, and they sound yummy. Great for vegetarians and I love the fact that they are nearly fat free! Very simple recipes and in an easy-to-use format.

This review is from: Fat-Free & Easy: Great Meals in Minutes: No Added Fat, No Cholesterol, No Animal Ingedients (Paperback)

My husband needed a quadruple by-pass. His kidneys started to give him a problem before he could have the surgery and the surgery was delayed. We heard about and bought and read the book "Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease" by, Caldwell B. Esselstyn, Jr., M.D.. Dr. Esselstyn and his wife "Ann Crile Esselstyn" suggested "Fat-Free and Easy" as a good book for fat-free recipes as well as the recipes in his own book. We have been cooking these easy and delicious recipes from Dr. Esselstys' book and from "Fat-Free and Easy" for the past four months. My husband has improved so much that a Stress Test and an Echocardiogram he had taken last Friday showed a big improvement in his health. His Total Cholesterol went from 166 to 108. His cardiologist and surgeon have decided that he should continue with the program he is following and they will check him again in six months. If he is doing as well, then, as he is right now he may not need the surgery. By the way, my husband is 80 years young. Oh, and his kidney are back to normal.
We couldn't have done all this without the wonderful recipes in "Fat-Free and Easy" that taught us a whole new way to cook and enjoy our meals. Thanks also to "Jennifer Raymond" the author of "Fat-Free and Easy. Smart Lady!
