Amazon.com Review: If you're interested in being kind to your heart without short-changing your taste buds, here's the skinny from folks who ought to know: the American Heart Association. In the second edition of Low-Fat, Low-Cholesterol Cookbook, these popular heart-healthy, easy-to-make recipes have been updated and revised to provide even tastier and more varied meals for you and your family. Imagine digging into Clam Chowder, Chocolate Custard Cake, or Crab Spring Rolls with Peanut Dipping Sauce without that frisson of guilt that usually accompanies such indulgences. From the first recipe in the book (Nectarine-Plum Chutney) to the last (Baked Apples), you'll find plenty of good food that's good for you and easy to make. In addition to the recipes (many illustrated with color photos), there are also sections containing information about how to make healthy changes in your diet and plenty of tips on cooking for a healthy heart. To your health!
Good recipes, but lacks appeal: This is another good source of low fat / low cholesterol recipes. However, if you are like me and like to see photos of what you're cooking, this cookbook isn't for you. I was very disappointed that there are no photos other than the cover. When I go through a cookbook looking for a new recipe to try, if the food looks good in a photo, I want to try the recipe. I personnaly recommend the Betty Crocker Low Fat / Low Cholesterol cookbook if you want good recipes with photos.
Great book and it might save my life!: I have found the recipes in this book to be better than what I expected. I feel like I have more energy just after a few days of being on a low cholesterol diet and if I physically feel a difference that soon, then my cholesterol must be dropping. I must worn you that if you don't like to cook, then this isn't the book for you. The recipes in here require a lot of fresh foods and time to prepare them, about 45 minutes. But I have to say it is well worth the effort. My health is what's most important. I can't afford to be a picky eater with my cholesterol.
cookbook review: good book. i purchased it for my mom and she seems to like it
good recipes: I have used several recipes from this cookbook. I have found them to be fairly easy and all that I have tried have tasted really good. The taste is so good you would never know that you were missing all the yummy fat or cholesterol.
Low-Fat, Low-Cholesterol Cookbook, 3rd Ed., American Heart Assoc.: This is a very helpful cookbook with lots of delicious recipes for those who want to prepare foods that are low in fat, and low in cholesterol.
