Dieting is tough and finding new variations of diff healthy choices is even harder.Ive been able to incorporate so many new and amazing recipes into my diet. The choices are plentiful and whatever I already tried was truly delicious!I love the nutrition facts and tips included. This way theres no questioning the healthiness of a dish.

Fantastic BookFantastic Seller!!!

This is a good cookbook with lots of good hints. Pictures are great and layout is indeed user friendly.

I own many cookbooks but this one is a lot of fun!! Healthy and clear recipes and pictures. Can't wait to try them!

This is an excellent cookbook. The recipes have proven to be yummy and the photos are beautiful.

*This book was provided to me by the publisher in exchange for an honest review*I’m convinced the social media “story” feature was created to take pictures of food. It’s so we can share what we’re eating in the moment without having to delete hundreds of food pics later. There’s something to be said about photographing a thoughtfully plated dish. My husband and I have gotten into arguments over him picking food off my plate before I’ve captured the perfect shot. He should know better by now.Pictures of food can make us hungry, make our mouths water, and of course make us crave what we see. The Secrets of Skinny Cooking cookbook knows this. They include breathtaking photos for every recipe. There are over 135 of them, in case you’re wondering. This cookbook isn’t just functional, it’s a literal work of art.The photos make me want to try everything despite being generally lazy about cooking. I understand the value of home cooked meals, but too much time prepping food will leave me opting for take out. Give me something simple and I’m there! Luckily for me, flipping through the book reveals the recipes are easy to prepare with the majority requiring 5 steps or less.Some delicious recipes in the book include:Apple Pie CrepesFrench Toast Eggs-in-a-HoleCrispy Eggplant Wontons with Two Dipping SaucesMaple & Cinnamon Butternut Squash SoupHoisin-Glazed Sea Bass and MushroomsSkinny Pasta AlfredoSpinach Stuffed Chicken ThighsZucchini Pizza FriesCrème BruleeBest selling cookbook author Victora Dwek and successful nutritionist Shani Taub have joined forces to bring you these mouthwatering, low-calorie meals. The Secrets of Skinny Cooking includes secret tips and techniques for making your favorite foods lighter. It also contains plenty of gluten-free, sugar-free, low-carb, Whole30, and Paleo options. I've prepared the Jumbo Broccoli Baked Potatoes. They were delicious.I’ll give you some time to figure out if you want this in your kitchen. I’ll be in mine preparing some low-calorie crème brûlée.

I was excited about this book for a number of reasons. First, I have a somewhat embarrassing cookbook addiction and am always thrilled when I hear that a new Kosher cookbook is coming out (I've actually been known to stalk upcoming cookbooks on social media, as pathetic as that may sound). Second, while I can't claim to be a real stickler about nutrition, I do prefer to eat healthily and to encourage good eating habits for my family. I've been disappointed in some of the previous calorie-conscious Kosher cookbooks out there but knew I could expect something wonderful from Victoria, having loved her other cookbooks (the Made Easy and Secret Restaurant Recipes series).Now that I have it, this cookbook has been a joy. I love the various tips it provides, such as salad dressing ideas (I've always made my own dressings and it's great to have some new ideas). The chicken "lo mein" was delicious, as was the Spanish rice. My family absolutely loved the stuffed baked potatoes with broccoli (Greek yogurt is substituted for sour cream, significantly reducing calories and fat but not taste). I must confess to occasionally cheating by using more cheese than is called for and such (like I said, I'm not a real stickler) but I still feel somewhat virtuous preparing these recipes and enjoying them fully.Highly recommended -- I hope you enjoy this cookbook as I do.

I had pre-ordered Victoria Dwek's new cookbook because I saw her give a demo months before. I was very impressed with her and the two recipes she made--which are in the book.One day I saw the cookbook in a bookstore I had to buy it then--instead of waiting for my Amazon pre-order. Why? The ingredient combinations are refreshingly new, ingeniously simple and a welcome change to my repertoire that had remained the same for a decade or so. I'm recreating my go-to recipes from this book. If you buy it, you will too!Update: 7/19/2017The Alfredo sauce w/spaghetti squash using cauliflower was better than the real sauce with cream and pasta. It was out of this world! Definitely a keeper forever!I loved the baked French fried eggplant strips instead of French fried potatoes. The nacho chips were A+.Enjoying these scrumptious healthy recipes really makes unhealthy food very unappealing to me. I don't have a weight problem at all--I'm just looking for recipes with healthy ingredients. This cookbook is fantastic.

Brilliant book by Victoria Dwek again!
