• Not Really That Good At All. 17 May, 2009
Frankly, if you release a book that says "500 low carb recipes," you expect something more creative than a series of obviously now-carb things (meat and salad? Mein gott!) and completely impossible-to-make recipes.
I'm sorry, but I don't live somewhere where you can casually walk into a store and find yourself some vanilla whey protein/special protein mix that is required for 90% of the desserts in this book.
Just get a real cookbook and substitute flour for soy flour/bake mix and sugar for splenda.

• Low-carb Wonders 15 April, 2009
I really like this cookbook. Besides low-carb recipes there are several different recipes for sauces, jerk rubs, rib rubs and things like that.

Great book with lots of good ideas and recipes. Only problem is that you will have to shop at a health food store for some of the ingredients, but its worth it if you are doing the low carb thing. Unique low carb recipes that I haven't seen anywhere else. Even some faux baked goods like bread and muffins. So far, so good!

• Some Good, Some Not-so-good. 22 May, 2009
Dana Carpender, 500 Low-Carb Recipes (Fair Winds, 2002)
Not a bad little collection, with some interesting recipes and a few ideas you might not have seen before, but I may have not quite understood the definition of "recipe". I realize you can apply it to any written procedure for cooking, but I'm thinking more of the popular version of the word, and it strikes me that a recipe containing two ingredients (a steak and some butter) and one step (fry the steak) doesn't quite reach the mark. I mean, doesn't everyone know they can toss a steak in a pan with some butter and fry it? And don't you think that those who don't probably won't be in the market for a cookbook? Filler, in other words, and not the kind you roll into a freshly-pounded pork loin. Still, there's enough substance here to make it worth checking out of the library and seeing if you want to add it to the permanent collection. ***

• Best Cookbook I Have Ever Owned 30 April, 2009
I have been low carb for about a year and finally ran out of ways to make a low carb meal (I also wanted a simple carb count without doing it myself for those days when time is not a friend). I received this book for Christmas and immediately started cooking. I loved the food as well as the fact the recipes are easy to follow and have a range of cook times from: takes a while - done in no time at all. She has a fun way of titling her dishes and I enjoy the stories on where she came up with them. While the titles are strange the food is not. I am not pretentious and either was this food. It was classics made low carb. My family also loves the meals I cook even though none of them are low carb eaters. I have made the bake goods and brought them to work and people love them, they can't even tell they are low carb until I tell them. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys to cook. I have used this book more than any other cookbook I have owned and enjoyed the food the most also.
