I love the mix-and-match foil packets and grilled meats with spice rub for that very no-brainer yet still interesting quality.So far, we are up to a loss of 17 pounds in 5 weeks with moderate (3 times/week) exercise. For me, this works.
I like three things about this book:1. Visual Appeal--her open-faced omelettes, flatbread pizzas, and light creamy pasta look so fabulous on the plate, you don't feel like you are cutting back.2.
I am a huge fan of Pam Anderson's other books, so when my husband and I decided weight-loss was a goal, this book was a natural choice. Exciting Variations--again, as with her other books, Anderson gives you a few themes with lots of variations.
Huge Flavor--as with her other books, Anderson is willing to add a few extra calories, an unusual ingredient, or an extra step if she knows it will pay off in the flavor department. Her recipes for creamy black bean chili, whole wheat mini muffins, or multi-grain pancakes don't taste like cardboard versions of themselves because Anderson pays attention to flavor & texture.3.
I'm happy to have soup for lunch daily as long as its a different soup (with different texture, color, and flavor) each day. Thank you, Pam Anderson.
i bought this when it came out an i love it. there are so many combinations.
Well written with good ideas and suggestions, example: putting desserts into custard cups for portion control.Favorite sections were soups and the veggie dishes.I enjoyed the layout. Not many pictures for those who enjoy that sort of thing.Only reason lost a star was due to the complexity of some recipes and random non-basic ingredients (I'm lazy, young and single, so have to do a lot of halving or freezing of left-overs. *grin*)
I am sooooo impressed with this book. I can't even bake a frozen pizza in that time. in less than a few minutes make a wonderful pan sauce of the type that you get in an upscale restaurant and just to put the cherry on top of this Sundae of wonders. It is that good. But if you want to EAT WELL and LOSE WEIGHT. Now really, make a wonderful flat-bread pizza in ( dough and all)), in less than 30 min and it is on your PLATE. Now it is a recipe book to manage your weight but what it is really is a insider secrets to making WONDERFUL EASY BEST TASTING FOOD in MINUTES> I will be using this book for years. Take those plan Jane frozen chicken breast or salmon fillet and viola.
It is so easy and takes get this 15 seconds to make it in your food processor. It takes longer to heat you oven than it takes to make these flatbreads. the calories of the pan sauces are like 42 calories to take a plan chicken breast to a wonderful tasty exciting meal.There are so many positives to this book I can't list them all. you can't do better than this and your friends and family will think your a Genius in the Kitchen
I've really enjoyed this book. It's about what we're always striving for - better ways to eat, and care for ourselves. I love that Pam focuses on bettering how you feel about yourself emotionally, as well as physically.The Union Square Bar Nuts recipe has become a favorite in our house, and I'm just waiting on getting a smaller crockpot so I can more often cook the beautiful oatmeal recipe. I highly recommend this book.
