Crazy Plates: Low-Fat Food So Good, You'll Swear It's Bad for You!

Summary: Crazy Plates makes for Happy Palates
Review: As a Dietetics professional, I'm always looking for good sources for low fat recipes. This one is one of the best I have seen. Other reviewers have commented that the recipes are easy. I agree they aren't difficult, but they can be a little time consuming because many of them have a lot of ingredients. I think the number of spices and herbs used helps greatly to contribute to the great taste of the recipes, but can be a bit daunting. The results though are well worth any effort involved in putting together the recipes. The nutritional information is accurate and easy to "digest" (Pardon the pun.) and the Cooking 101 tips are helpful. I have over 200 cookbooks in my collection. Crazy Plates and Looney Spoons are the only two that have a permanent spot out in the kitchen!

Summary: Low fat food that tastes great!
Review: As soon as I started making the recipes in this book, I could not stop because everything tasted so good! It has become my favorite cookbook for many reasons. The recipes are easy, tasty and don't require a million ingredients. The Pod's Pad Thai tasted just like the high fat version I had at a restraurant. My husband raved about the Lanky Noodle Dandy and the Nouveau Quiche. Each recipe includes nutritional information, interesting "fat facts" and fun cartoons. If you want low fat food that tastes great, this is the book for you!

Summary: Another BEST!
Review: Finding tempting foods while on a low-fat diet can be more of a challenge than it's worth. This books changes all that! Not only is it one of TWO (the other being Looneyspoons) that tempt you to try the recipes, it delivers in the taste department besides being fun to read. You cannot go wrong with these recipes! Try them!

Review: I absolutely love this cookbook, (and LooneySpoons). The recipes are easy to make and the ingredients are easy to find. The meals are delicious, and the portions are very generous.
I had fun just reading all the information. I highly reccomend it. I bought one for my mother-in-law and she just loves it too.

Summary: Absolutely the Best!
Review: I bought this cookbook a couple of months ago hoping to find at least a couple of good recipes.....
WOW! Was I surprised to see that EVERY recipe that I have tried, which has been about 20 of them....have just been so delicious! My family just can hardly believe that the dishes are low fat!
This is the first cookbook that I have bought, that I have tried so many and everyone wants to know what is for dinner every night.
It was well worth the money and I just ordered the Looneyspoons today....knowing that it will be wonderful too!
Thanks ladies for putting such a wonderful thing together!

Summary: Much better than their first book...
Review: I got both books (CRAZY PLATES and LOONEYSPOONS) at the same time and found this one to be the superior one in appetizing recipes, etc. This will be the one I use the most.

Summary: Delicious and unique!
Review: I have a pretty extensive collection of cookbooks, but the Crazy Plates and Looney Spoons books probably get used more than the others combined! The recipes are flavorful and unusual...not your typical (i.e. boring) chicken and rice type.

Summary: Finally! Low-fat recipes that cater to epicureans!
Review: I have both books and find them absolutely wonderful. The jokes are corny, but the food is divine and sublime. I have tried healthy recipes from other sources for over a decade and they always left my epicurean tastes wanting. A bonus is that, of the recipes I've tried, the prep time is usually half an hour or less. The recipes are easy; the ingredients are readily available.

Summary: Great cookbook. I love it!
Review: I have both this cookbook and Looneyspoons and I love them both. They are pretty much the only cookbooks I look at any more. Very tasty recipes and I just like to page through it. Highly recommended.
