Reviews

[False · Rating 2 out of 5]

I read this because 1) it's by Ruth Glick who writes fairly consistently good cookbooks and 2) she's a local author. This is about what you would expect from her: healthy, simple recipes without overly exotic ingredients that you can whip up pretty much with basic pantry items.

I don't eat a low-carb diet, but have still found some useful recipes in this book. If you ARE on a low-carb diet, this is definitely one to seek out. Finalist, Excellence in Independent Publishing Award, Mid-Atlantic Publishers Association (2001).
