We have seen diet fads come and go, but this book helped us adjust our eating habits, not our lifestyle. The recipes are easy to follow, and the changes made to the original recipes to exclude trans fats were not noticeble in taste, nor did the taste make you ask the question “is this Diet”?
This book should be in everyone’s kitchen.

I was fortunate enough to hear the author speak at a book signing. She speaks as well as she writes. I like her practical approach on nutrition. The fact she’s a mother raising children adds value because I feel like she relates to me. I found her book easy to understand, easy to read, and easy to follow. She’s made shopping easier with her varied lists of foods we can eat, including name brands. Changing eating habits is very difficult, yet after seeing her and reading her book, making changes seems obtainable. In fact, our family was able to make instant changes in our food buying/eating habits. Her book is a valuable tool for anyone who wants to make informative and positive changes in their nutrition.
