Rating:  Summary: Sophisticated gourmet recipes for MONTIGNAC ! Review: If you are a Peanut Butter and Jelly type person, this is not the book for you. These are simple to prepare recipes but geared to the refined palate. 30 page booklet has 30 recipes including; Eggplants stuffed with tomato and mozzarella cheese, Parcels of salmon fillet with a puree of green peppers, Red mullet with mediterranean vegetables, Duck breasts in green pepper sauce, Creme brulee, Chocolate truffles, Terrine of foie gras, Fillet steaks with mushrooms etc. The beauty of these recipes is that when eaten according to MONTIGNAC's rules you will not gain weight! Each recipe lists ingredients, servings, preparation time, and cooking time. No nutritional information ie calories, fat etc. is listed. There a few color photographs but not many. Preperation time ranges from as few as 5minutes for Baked Eggs with Scampi to 1 and 1/2 hours for Whole Meal Gnocchi served with a Tomato and Basil coulis. Montignac's eating program is NOT explained in this small recipe booklet. But he does have a one page listing of the glycemic index at the back and on another page he lists food ideas for a MONTIGNAC party! MONTIGNAC also has another cookbook, which is larger with more recipes. I would select that one first and if you want more recipes with a gourmet flair order this one also!
