THE Doris Cross book to get if you can only get ONE!

This is THE Doris Cross book to get, if you can only get one of them. This has to be her best book, hands down! Many creative and surprising recipes. Highly recommended. AVOID LIKE IT'S DISEASED: "Doris's Diet Recipes"!!!!!!!!! That book should burn in hell. I still need therapy for my anger.

reader from Michigan

After being issued an ultimatum to reduce my weight and cholesterol, I started using this book and am delighted. The recipes are easy to follow using everyday ingredients and actually taste good. Doris Cross adds her own personal comments and encouragement, as she has lost 100 pounds herself and has kept it off. I never thought I would eat fat-free mayonnaise until trying her recipes. I lost 6 pounds the first week.

Absolutely the most fabulous low fat cookbook I've ever had!

When I found I had high cholesterol, I knew I had to make some lifestyle changes as far as what I eat. I grew up on good old fashioned country cooking and so many of the low fat cookbooks are full of recipes for food I would never even be tempted to try. I also needed recipes for things that my family would eat and that means that the food cannot resemble diet food! Well this cookbook has it all. I have tried numerous recipes and after my family tells me that it tasted great, I say "Good, it was low fat!!" Now it is enjoyable to eat healthy, and I highly recommend this book to anyone looking for great tasting food.

My favorite cook book; but, also my favorite gift to give.

When my husband and I decided to start a new "life style", it meant learning a whole new way to cook. I went to the book store, bought a cup of coffee, sat down with every "low fat" cook book on the shelf and scanned them for recipes that I might actually try. I didn't want to buy a book with only a few recipes that fit my busy schedule. I decided on "Fat Free & Ultra Lowfat Recipes". When I got it home, I realized the author, Doris Cross lived just a few miles away. A few weeks later, after realizing how much I loved that book,I went back for another. That's when I bought "Fat Free 2". I use more recipes in that book than the first. But my favorite is, "Doris' Fat-Free Homestyle Cooking". I have sent copies to all my friends and family.
