Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

Lickety-Split Meals is extremely educational and motivating for anyone trying to lose weight and reduce fat intake. It's also effective for those people wanting to lower cholesterol, control diabetes, reduce the risk of cancer, increase energy level or enhance sports performance! The menus were designed to meet the guidelines of the American Heart Association, American Diabetes Association, as well as the American Institute for Cancer Research. --This text refers to an alternate Spiral-bound edition.

From the Author

As a Registered Dietitian and Certified Health and Fitness Instructor, I have discovered after 10 years of working with clients, long-term lifestyle success always boiled down to three ingredients. 1) Easy, realistic recipes that are super-fast and taste great, 2) more time to exercise, and 3) a tool which the person views each day to maintain focus and motivation. I wrote the book out of necessity for a motivating, long-term solution to lifestyle success. --This text refers to an alternate Spiral-bound edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best!!, January 2, 2001

This review is from: Lickety-Split Meals: For Health Conscious People on the Go! Recipes, Grocery Guide, Health & Fitness Tips (Spiral-bound)

This is the best low-fat nutritious cookbook I've ever tried. I am a registered dietitian, and I still was thrilled with Zonya's book. I liked the recipes - clear instructions, nothing tricky, no exotic foods. I especially liked the format which gives you the order of meal preparation - my husband can use it. For many less-experienced cooks, knowing when to cook the rice, start the salad, etc. and get it all done on time can be intimidating.

Now, no excuses for high calorie fast food or TV dinners. I plan to buy a copy for my daughter-in-law and sister too. I also liked the fitness tips and other information on a healthy lifestyle.

Just the thing to start your New Year's resolutions off right.

I checked this book out from my local library and loved it so much I had to buy my own copy. The recipes are absolutely delicious and easy to make. I particularly like the way the author tells you step-by-step what to do and provides all of the dietary information for each recipe. No unusual or hard-to-find ingredients -- just nice, simple recipes that you and your family will love. This is really a good book.

5.0 out of 5 stars It's a cookbook, grocery guide, health-fitness advisor!, September 29, 1999

The health-fitness content of this work is wonderful ... truly a practical-scholarly edition for your kitchen countertop. The packaging of the book intrigued me as I am a publisher - the book folds out and can stand upright, folds flat on its spiral binder, and the page layouts feature eye catching titles, subtitles, humor, and graphics which allow the reader to easily visualize the food ideas. My high compliments to Vicki Grucz, graphic designer and the author who now have a 2nd Edition Work which sets new standards for a health-conscious America!
