This is a good cook book for people who are wanting to cut their fat intake. I bought this book in 1997, and after using the recipes in this book, along with some other low-fat cookbooks that I had at the time, I managed to lose a decent amount of weight and get healthier. The recipes are good, my kids even liked them. Some of the nice features in this book are that each recipe has a shopping list at the bottom of the page, it includes diabetic exchanges, and the book even includes a 14-day menu plan. I used that plan for the times when I was trying something new and wasn't quite sure what I should serve with it. All in all, I'm happy with it, and I still use many of the recipes in this book 7 years later.

Really good recipes. It is great for people watching their fat content. Great for diabetics, it includes exchanges.

I have had this book for several years. My family cooks out of it often and have we enjoyed everything we have prepared. It offers recipes for all "tastes". The book lets you know if you can "make ahead", if it is "easy", etc., and even provides a grocery list for you. Includes dietary exchanges, also. Makes eating fat free easy! No more excuses! :) I am ordering more of Jyl's books today!

I was just wondering where you find some of the ingredients used in the cookbook such as Buttermilk Blend, Lighter Bake and Fat Free Pancake Mix. Is there a particular store you can shop at to purchase them? Thank You.

Over several months I tried many of the recipes in this cookbook. I could not honestly rate any of them even "fair."
