5.0 out of 5 stars Super Woman to the Non-Dairy Eater July 18, 2011

By Coach

Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase

Okay, here is the third Levana Kirschenbaum cookbook (buy the other two before they go out of print also). If you are allergic to or can not eat dairy products, you can be fortunate to have Levana in your life. Her recipes are mouth watering and her desserts are just "beyond." Levana uses ingredients that promote health and are so good. My wife has made her non-dairy cheesecake. Even dairy eaters love it. She has also made about 8 other desserts and smoothies by Levana. They are both very good, good for you, and do not leave you feeling like a blimp afterwards.

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to prepare recipes and healthy! May 22, 2012

By Sarah Leah

Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase

Levana's cookbook is my new favorite. She really makes it easy and educational to cook fast and healthy! Part of her speed is using the food processor for just about everything. My only gripe is that I'm a carb counter NOT a calorie counter and some of her "healthy" recipes are VERY high in carbs even though she is using all natural ingredients. I would highly recommend this cook book. It's an investment as far as I'm concerned and a great teaching tool :)

Tasty recipes easy to follow, but hard to look up certain things on Kindle version. Would recommend paper back version.
