Atkins for Life Low-Carb Cookbook: More Than 250 Recipes for Every Occasion

Arrived on time as described

The book gives you lots of reciepes to choose from. It even has recipes for the holidays which can be a challenge when you are doing low carb and following the Atkins plan. Atkins does work just watch your sevings and plan on measuring if you are trying to take the pounds off.

The Atkins cookbook has helped me to be more creative when it comes to cooking. The meals I have been able to present to my family have been sensational! My family can't tell that we are all on a restricted carb plan! They just think that I am going the extra mile to fix delicious meals. A must have for those wanting to cut carbs.

I received this cookbook for Christmas 2004 and have already made a half dozen or so recipes - every single one was thoroughly enjoyed by my non-low carbing husband! I figure that Veronica Atkins has been eating low carb longer than just about anyone - she has a lot of great recipes to share! If you want to make low carb living your way of life, you will want to have this cookbook on your shelf.

You don't have to be on the Atkins Diet to use and enjoy this book. This low-carb cookbook offers over 250 recipes designed to let you indulge in gourmet type dining, with minimal carbs. The book is a compilation of popular low-carb recipes from the Akins Center, and is written by the wife of the late Dr. Robert Atkins. It is printed on glossy paper, which is great for use in a kitchen environment, and many of the recipes are complemented by full-page color photos of recipe presentations. It's a beautiful book, that you can also use as a coffee table book, but its practical recipes makes it more than just decoration. The book includes 100s of tips for low-carb dieting, and each recipe includes detailed nutritional statistics. The recipes are divided into sections for 30-minute meals, tight budgets, bag lunches, snack, and desserts. About half of the book is dedicated to recipes for specific holidays and seasons. I highly recommend this book.

A wonderful tribute to Dr. Atkins' philosophy and a MUST for low carb diners. This cookbook's first asset is the at-a-glance check as to which phase of Atkins each recipe applies. It has wonderfully useful chapters addressing holidays and parties, dinners for one, using slow cookers, grilling and making lunches to brown bag. Tips suggest how to use, store and keep fresh the various ingredients. Full of tasty, real life recipes -- even a section dedicated to family fare. And the photos will whet your appetite as surely as the recipes!!
