Summary: Tasty, healthy recipes for lowfat, low carb cooking
Review: I find this an excellent book of recipes that take very little time. They are not only healthy, but tastier than most of my other recipes. I have been losing weight and eating great food following this cookbook - it is also easy to use if you are following the zone diet, or the Atkins diet (just add more oil), fits well into low fat diets as well.

Review: I ran across this book in a used bookstore and thought, "$4, no big deal." I'm currently ordering it for my family for Christmas. I'm not much of a cookbook reader yet I find myself picking this book up as I head to the bathroom for a long soak in the tub.I've tried a handful of dishes and have been pleased with each creation. In fact, the left overs I bring to work result in comments such as, "what smells so good?" I love admitting I'm the humble (yeah, right!) cook. One draw back has been that I didn't have many of the spices and grains as staples in my kitchen which has resulted in a bit of an investment. Additionally, some of the items I've never seen, tasted or heard of and I find myself frustrated as I comb the shelves of the whole foods store. But, I don't want to discount the sense of accomplishment when I do find an item. And, I must remember that all adventures take a bit of work. If you are looking for a cookbook that will excite your taste buds, support a healthy life and spark your creativity, this is the book for you.

Summary: Makes a Thoughtful Present for All Occasions!
Review: I've recommended this book to many people and I've also given the book as a present on various occasions (pregnancy, weddings etc...). The author presents easy to follow recipes that are as tasty as they are healthy!
I'm sorry that it's only available via used book sources (but at least it's still available). I've since moved to a vegetarian diet and can adapt many of the recipes to my current standards.
Excellent investment!

Review: My mother used this book and two others by Harriet Roth to help my father lower his cholesterol four years ago. My son was three then, and he loved the food, too. Lots of tasty recipes in Roth's books, along with some interesting commentary and common sense about eating and preparing food. Some of the recipes can be pretty labor intensive, especially for the two week diet that helps dramatically lower your cholesterol, but it does work - my father's level dropped significantly in that two weeks, and he lost 10 pounds, too.
