The Everything Glycemic Index Cookbook: 300 Appetizing Recipes to Keep Your Weight Down and Your Energy Up!

I was really reluctant to BUY a cookbook because I get most of my recipes for free online. I was glad I picked this one up though-- the variety is great, and there are TONS of things that even a super picky eater like me is excited to try out. The nutritional information included on each recipe is very handy, and they make it easy to find the GI rating (low, moderate, high) with a single glance.

I'm very impressed with this book. The recipes are all very simple to follow, and contain a reasonable amount of ingredients (no 20-ingredient, 5 hour preparation time dishes here!), all available at any grocery store, no specialty-markets required. Everything I've tested thus far has been really tasty - even my kids will eat it! I recommend this cookbook for anyone wanting to eat healthier, whether they are concerned about their glycemic index or not. It's just good food.

Have only had the book a couple of weeks but have already used a dozen recipes. Food has great flavor and recipes are easy, most can be quickly prepared with a little planning. My husband is still trying to figure out how we're "dieting" when the food is so good and he isn't going hungry!

What I liked about this book was that it provides recipes with measures for calories, GI, Carbs, Protein & Fat - so you can pick what you need for whatever diet, or stage of diet, you are on. At the front of the book, everything you need to know about insulin resistance and the glycemic index is set out in simple terms. No other book is really necessary!

I really like the recipes in this book. There are a lot of books out there with exotic stuff in them, but this is the kind of cookbook anyone can use. The recipes are outstanding, and easy to make! Definitely a good buy!
