Summary: Very encouraging!!
Comment: This book begins with the statement, "This is a book that has some extremely easy and quick recipes that I would even classify simply as "ideas." That statement and the relaxed humor put me totally at ease. Donna made things sound like they weren't a big deal if you didn't do it exactly like the recipe said because it would still be just as good! There are some recipes that are a little more involved than others, but not difficult at all! Those you are cooking for might think you had to work hard, but I found that you don't have to be chef or plan to cook only on special occasions. These ideas are pratical for everday! It's also nice that Donna has given her e-mail for any questions. The fact that a registered dietition did all the carb counts is great too. Can't wait to get the third book!

Summary: there are better low carb cookbooks
Comment: Found the recipes nasty, its a very small book, and the cutesy commentary is annoying. Try the low carb cookbooks by Donna Rodnitzky or Fran McCullough instead.

Summary: I'm returning it.
Comment: I've been eating low-carb for several years and am always looking for new ideas for low-carb foods. This book had very few that I could use. The author's tone is chatty and jokey, which is occasionally appealing and frequently annoying. The book also needs a good edit. However, those things don't matter if the recipes are good. Here, they're not. Nearly all of the desserts are based on Cool Whip, so if you don't like Cool Whip, that section is just about useless. In other recipes, the author prefers spicy food, which is OK with me in general, but if it's got chiles in it, it ain't quiche and it ain't Hungarian goulash! But here's the main reason why I'm returning this book: page 13's "Crazy Deal Pickle," which is a dill pickle spear smeared with peanut butter. That's it. That's the whole recipe. A good idea? Maybe, but not for [my money].
