Okay, but could be better,
This review is from: Low Carb Holiday: The Healthy & Delicious Low Carb Holiday Cookbook (Ring-bound)
This book (small 3-ring binder), has some interesting recipes, but not very many, considering the new price of the book. The author uses stevia and malitol for sweeteners.
The biggest problem I have with the book is that there is no nutritional information provided other than the carb count per serving. Carbs are not the only thing people are keeping track of when trying to eat. Some of the recipes (such as the mashed cauliflower ones) use more full-fat dairy products than you really need. Low-Carb doesn't always have to be high fat. On the other hand, there is enough extra space in the binder to put in some of your own low-carb holiday recipes, if you want to. Borrow from your library first, before buying.

Can't serve the stuff,

This review is from: Low Carb Holiday: The Healthy & Delicious Low Carb Holiday Cookbook (Ring-bound)
Thanksgiving dinner hasn't even been served yet, and already the pumpkin soup and trial-run gravy have gone down the drain, literally. The soup had the appearance and texture of wet cement and absolutely no flavor. The gravy, supposedly thickened with almond flour, was runny and gritty. Neither was fit to serve. Fortunately, I chose the rest of Thanksgiving dinner from Fran McCullough's low-carb cookbooks, which I have used with great success before. McCullough has excellent taste; John Owen apparently has none at all.
