Summary: Update - 142 pounds lost and still going!!
Review: I wrote a review of this great cookbook in April when I had lost 73 pounds, using this book among other things. I just wanted to update everyone that I am still with the diet, eating 2-3 of these recipes for dinner each week, and now have lost a total of 142 pounds. I still have a few more to go, so I'm sticking with it. This book will make maintenance much easier - it has lots of great tasting and easy to prepare ideas that we have used to create our own dishes as well.

Summary: great low fat cookbook
Review: I'm one of those cookbook collectors, who owns dozens of beautiful, pristine, read but unused cookbooks. But Looneyspoons (along with it's 'sequel' Crazy Plates and of course Joy of Cooking) is the book on my shelf with the most folded, spattered, tattered, scribbled-on pages, because it is truly one of the books I go back to again and again for reliable recipes that are great and reliable.
The fact that all the recipes are low-fat is just a wonderful bonus that I forget about most of the time. Look for brownies, stews, wonderful pastas, breads, salads, and a wide selection of meat dishes.

Summary: Best Cookbook I own!
Review: Someone gave this book to me a gift and I have to say I thought it was too cutesy and childish for a "serious" cook like myself (although, I don't cook that much I thought that when I did get around to cooking I better be serious and go with Martha Stuart). In truth, Martha is probably why I hate cooking -- the recipes take hours, you can rarely find all of the ingredients and the dish never comes out looking just right! Looney Spoons has showed me how fun and easy cooking can be and I love to cook now. I can make great low-fat meals in no time; this is by far the best cookbook I've ever had. The authors are really funny and the recipes taste great. They do a lot with spices which is something I've never experimented too much with before... HIGH APPLAUDES TO THE AUTHORS FOR SUCH AN AMAZING COOKBOOK!

Summary: I have lost 73 pounds, and am still going!
Review: This book, and its companion Crazy Plates, are fantastic. Partly with the help of these two books, I have been able to lose 73 pounds since last Christmas (OK, I had a lot to lose! :)) The recipes are more delicious than I thought possible - even preferable to "regular" recipies! My favorite from this book is the outstanding breakfast omelette recipe. It tastes great, and is extremely simple to make. I could not believe how much of this dish I could eat and still stay legal! A nice feature of the book is that every recipe has the fat and calorie information listed clearly at the bottom by portion. Take it from a big eater, the portions are generous. We have even lowered the fat and calorie content of several of the dishes in the book ourselves, substituting things like fat free chicken broth instead of standard chicken broth, I Can't Believe It's Not Butter Free for butter, egg substitutes for eggs, and black tiger shrimp (less fat and calories) for regular pink shrimp. Even though I have lost 73 pounds, I have a good bit more to go, with maintenance after that. This book will have a welcome place in our kitchen for years to come!

Summary: looneyspoons
Review: This is the most fabulous cookbook I have ever owned (and I have a lot of cookbooks)!! I use this book every day, and no one believes me when I say its a low fat recipe from this book. My family was not interested in low fat cooking until I started using this one. I have bought it for everyone in my family and many friends. I have yet to try a recipe I didn't like. If you dont have any low fat cook books and you want one that will get you started this is the one!!! I doubt you'll buy another cook book, unless they do another one. This is real food for people who love food!!! You'll love it!!! Thanks gals!!!!
