FABULOUS cookbook!, 2008-02-07
This is an excellent cookbook to have on hand, whether you have diabetes (like my partner) or you're trying to change your diet to lose weight (like me). All of the dishes I've tried are very simple to make, call for readily available ingredients, are very tasty, and none have left me feeling like I'm "on a diet." She has all kinds of helpful hints and tips for cutting fat and calories. One of the things I especially appreciate is that so many of her recipes are designed for four servings. There are only two of us in my household, but she uses a 8" square pan to cook a lot of these in specifically so you can cut down the middle and easily measure out the four servings. She's marked the dishes that freeze well so you can set the other two servings aside and freeze them for a quick dinner in the future. I cannot say enough good things about this cookbook and would recommend it to anyone!

A Diabetic's Look At The Book, 2005-08-02
Since I am diabetic and overweight I have tried all the classic diabetic recipes and found them all to be tasteless and time consuming to prepare. Ms. Lund's recipes use products you have on hand and the resulting meal has both taste and is quick to prepare. It is important to me that I don't have to spent hours preparing it and it satisfies my hunger for things I shouldn't have. I highly recommend the book to anyone who is diabetic and especially those who are classed as "border-line" diabetics.

A good, simple start to Low Fat cooking!!, 2003-02-11
I really like this book and would recommend it to anyone who is especially just starting to eat a low fat/low sugar diet.
It may not be "gourmet" food, but it is great tasting, easy to prepare food...and you can find all the ingredients in your local markets.One of the best parts of the book, believe it or not, is the information in the beginning pages on how to substitute low fat ingredients for fattening ones! You probably would never think the low fat substitutes could taste so good but THEY DO!!!
Try the book, you won't be disappointed.
