Love the recipes and the gourmet touch of using fresh herbs and spices. They make all the difference when cooking low carb.

Not very impressed. Nearly everything is loaded with soy products which are shown to cause problems with the body's ability to manufacture it's necessary hormones. I sold it at the neighborhood garage sale.

Just bought this for my iPad. Waste of money - no page numbers, so it's difficult to find specific recipes. Headings are undistinguishable from previous recipe, text just runs continuously. Very disappointed, although the content seems interesting.

This book is a good source of information, but some of the recipes aren't so realistic. Either way, the recipes I have made from it have been great!

I have given this to two other people it's great. I use it all the time

Many of the recipes already have the correct count, but even if they don't, THEY'RE FREE!!
