Summary: Delicious recipes
Review: This is a great book for anyone who loves Italian food. The low-fat recipes are delicious, use mostly common ingredients and are easy to make. The only illustrations are a small selection of photos in the middle.

The book starts out with a brief description of the ingredients and some suggested menus. Fat & calories are listed for each dish. Each recipe has a sidebar with severing suggestions, recipe variations, or background on the ingredients.

Recipes include appetizers, soups, breads, fresh pastas, sauces, polenta, salads, pizzas, desserts, and liqueurs. There are also many main dishes with vegetables, seafood, meat, and poultry.

Some of my favorite dishes include the spinach calzone, lemon risotto and chicken piccata. My friends loved the ricotta & basil tortellini. The chocolate and raisin biscotti served with coffee is also divine.
