5.0 out of 5 stars Great tasting recipes! Pictures of each Recipe!
This is a Great Low Calorie Recipe book. I have personally made several recipes for my family and they love each of them. The proportions are good and most are easy to make. This book has full color pictures of each recipe. I will not use a cookbook unless there is a picture with the recipe. If the food is visually attractive then I am interesting in making the dish...

3.0 out of 5 stars So-so
The recipes are ok but at times complicated. This is really more for weekend cooking than for everyday meals.

This review is from: Low-Calorie Cookbook (Hardcover)
This is a Great Low Calorie Recipe book. I have personally made several recipes for my family and they love each of them. The proportions are good and most are easy to make. This book has full color pictures of each recipe. I will not use a cookbook unless there is a picture with the recipe. If the food is visually attractive then I am interesting in making the dish. I wish more cookbooks with include pictures of the dish with the recipes.

I highly recommend the following recipes:
Sticky Ribs
Shrimp Bisque
Stir-Fried Beef with Mango
Pan-Fried Turkey Scallops with Citrus-Honey Sauce

You will enjoy this cookbook!

5.0 out of 5 stars Very decadent!, June 2, 2008

This review is from: Low-Calorie Cookbook (Hardcover)
This has become one of my favorite all-around cookbooks (low calorie or not).

Pros: Pictures with every recipe
Recipes separated by course and then by calorie count
Everyday recipes and special occasion recipes

Cons: some hard to find ingredients (e.g. gooseberries) - most are garnish though
Lots of usage of ramekins, which not everyone may have
Not digging the binding (too stiff - hard to stay open)
