Easy, Delicious Recipes4
When I first received this book, I was a little disappointed because its a small book (approx. 6" x 8") with paperback-type pages. This is not the full-color, glossy pictures of recipes cookbooks. As soon I began scanning the pages of the recipes, I was no longer disappointed.

The book has page after page of delicious, mouth-watering recipes. It isn't filled with makeover recipes that require hard to find ingredients but foods that are naturally low-carb. Dana Carpender does use Splenda in her recipes so beware if you do not like to use Splenda.

If you are looking for a cookbook offering quick, easy, delicious, low-carb recipes then you will enjoy Dana Carpender's 15 minute Low-Carb recipes.

Artificial Sweeteners2
Sorry.. but very disappointed In the use of Artificial Sweeteners in so many of the recipes.. especially the deserts.. In a healthier world we should be getting away from the chemicals.. It's only a matter of time till we find out what the latest man made sweetener is doing to our bodies.. I wish the author would have used another ingredient..

Great, Quick Low Carb5
I purchased this book at COSTCO for very cheap. I've been on the lowcarb lifestyle off and on.

The recipes are 15 minutes start to finish and taste great. I am considered a very good cook by friends and family and have been impressed with the wide range of flavors. Other reviews of "very hard to find ingredients" is just not true. This has become our go-to recipe book for the week when we come home from work.

Favorite recipes:

Easy Mexican Chicken
Microwaved Fish and Asparagus with Terragon Mustard
Sweet and Sour Pork (also we've made with chicken)
Balsamic Lamb Skillet (also made with Beef)
Chicken Skillet Roma
Chili Burgers
Asian Pork and Cabbage
Unstuffed Cababage

Get this book---it's great!
