I got this book because I've been doing the SBD, and every recipe we've tried is a winner. I especially love that it uses so much fresh fruit & other fresh summer stuff. Now I look for what looks best at the store when deciding what to make. A few recipes require stuff I don't normally stock, but so far we've found everything at Wal-Mart. I've been cooking this for my husband & dad who aren't doing the diet and they both chow it down. I think my dad has forgotten that I've been cooking "diet" food for him. Long after I've lost my SB diet book, I'll still be making recipes from this cookbook - probably by request.
Awesome - even for a Novice July 9, 2007

I am not known for my cooking in fact, normally, people avoid my cooking. :) With this cookbook, I have had nothing but good reviews. I have made 3 recipes so far (I bought the book last week) and have a whole list of others to go. I love this cook book!
Buy this book! April 23, 2008

I received this cookbook as a gift and have worn it out over the last year. My husband and I have tried and enjoyed just about every recipe inside. There are of course a few that didn't make our favorites list, but overall this is a fantastic collection of meal ideas. We never felt like we were sacrificing taste in order to eat healthy. I used it all through the winter and just cooked on the stove top vs. the BBQ grill and it worked great! I have read quite a few cookbooks and this one is by the far the best I have seen.
Mmmmmm yummy! June 16, 2008

I was not too optimistic about this book because I found the original SB diet recipes to be too time and money consuming w/too many ingredients that were not in my cupboard. So I flipped through this initially and the photo were awesome, but again I did not let that excite me.
So this weekend we tried our first recipe, the Spicy Chicken Tacos. I had pretty much everything on hand, aside from some spices. I could not believe how delicious they were! And more importatnly so very filling. Even my husband, who has a large appetite thought they were extremely filling.
The next day we had the breakfast "pizzas" - eggs on pita with sauteed spinach. Again - fantastic and easy!
I also made the blackberry cups for a BBQ and they were a huge hit - and so simple.
So far we're 3 for 3 and I cannot wait to try more recipes.
I also love the last section which is summer drinks. I always find it difficult to enjoy a nice refershing beverage in the summer because they are all so full of sugar - this book has a great selection.
Follow-up 1 week later: This week we made the crab cakes, jalapeno turkey burgers, and the spicy fish tacos (we used tilapia instead of seabass). OMG they were all so freakin' delicious and EASY!!! I cannot pick a favorite because they were just all so yummy. I am loving this cookbook!
