3.0 out of 5 stars May not be what you think
This book might be great for some, but I wasn't too interested in most the recipes. Lots of things I don't eat in the first place, and actually, most of the others didn't sound very good. Have already passed it on.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Eats Here for Dieters and Non-Dieters Alike, February 3, 2010
By 
Vesta Irene (the Pacific Northwest) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Symply Too Good to be True: Over 150 Ways to Tasty, Low-fat Healthy Recipes (Paperback)
I've had this book for a week now, have made five recipes from it and have been pleased with each and every one. It seems Ken and I are always on one kind of diet or another. We get down to the weight we want, go off the diet, because we like to eat and oatmeal, even if you put fruit in it, just doesn't cut it.

I've got a zillion cookbooks and let's face it, fat just plain makes food taste good. But it is possible to have good tasting low fat meals. We've done it. There are other cookbooks out there that will help you along on your quest for good tasting low fat meals, but most of them have some duds in them. You know, you cook up a couple meals, then you wind up with one that tastes a bit like a dirty sheet. Not so here. All five recipes I tired did the trick. Like eating in a fancy restaurant at home.

It's hard to believe some of these recipes are actually low fat, but they are. Also this book starts out with some nice tips about healthy eating from Annette, but all the tips and advice in the world won't help if the meals don't cut it. These meals do. There is good eats here and I'm here to say this is a cookbook for dieters and non-dieters alike.

This review is from: Symply Too Good to be True: Over 150 Ways to Tasty, Low-fat Healthy Recipes (Paperback)
I purchase 2 of these books from Amazon and they were in perfect condition, new, and delivered earlier than expected. Cost was Symply Too Good to Be True! Easy, simple, tasty recipes with big colored pics. Cooked several of the recipes and they are great. Working through the rest of the book. Excellent for me. Thanks.

This review is from: Symply Too Good to be True: Over 150 Ways to Tasty, Low-fat Healthy Recipes (Paperback)
Just received this book and have tried several recipes - all of which have been great. If you are looking for healthy tasty recipes that are fairly easy to make, I would recommend it. It also has a good 28 day planner that includes other items not in the cookbook (which I like!)

5.0 out of 5 stars Best low fat cookbook I've ever used!, December 10, 2009
This review is from: Symply Too Good to be True: Over 150 Ways to Tasty, Low-fat Healthy Recipes (Paperback)
I have been using this cookbook for some months now and I (and everyone I have cooked for) loves it!! I find the recipes easy to follow and everything I've tried so far has worked out really well and looks like the pictures in the book. I cook the recipes often and I'm losing weight and feel so much healthier. There are so many recipes to try but some of my favorites are Chili Beef, Fish Alaska, Indian Butter Chicken, Macaroni Beef. And then there's the desserts and baked goods!! no one believes that they are eating a low fat baked cheesecake as it tastes awesome! I recommend you try it!!! beautiful photos - definitely money well spent and deserves 5 star rating!!!
