The south beach Diet cookbook has the nutritional information per serving at the bottom of the recipe.

| In all of these cookbooks, do they supply the nutritional values as well. That is what I usually look for in a cookbook

South Beach Diet Quick and Easy! Bought it a couple weeks ago, and have used it for dinner every night. It's easy and delicious, and very low-cal.

| I love "The Fifteen Minute Single Gourmet" by Paulette Mitchell. Super fast, delicious, single-serving meals (built in portion control, no will-power required). However, if you are cooking for a family, this is not the way to go. The book is out of print but I've seen used copies on Amazon.

| I've made a bunch of wonderful dishes from "The Mayo Clinic Williams-Sonoma Cookbook: Simple Solutions for Eating Well". It's heart-healthy recipes done well.

You can typically take just about any recipe and make it low cal, fat, cholesterol, and sodium.
Happy Cooking!!

| I'm a big fan of the Moosewood cookbooks, especially Moosewood Cooks at Home and Moosewood Low Fat Favorites. Very healthy, satisfying, great ways to get in healthy grains and veggies. If you have to have meat at every meal, though, these will not be for you.

| I was just in Walmart earlier today and I was checking out some of the cookbooks when this one caught my eye, The 5 factor diet by Harley Pasternak. The parts that I glanced at sounded really good. It's 5 meals a day, 5 ingredients and 5 minute prep time. Sounded good to me, I'm going to see what it says on the website that was on the book---5factordiet.com

| I have quite a few, but I have a lot of cookbooks in general. Do you like to cook? There are a few Complete Cooking Light cookbooks, which have 1000 recipes in them. They are not the annual issues, but a larger book. There are also 2 new cookbooks that are getting good reviews. Ellie Krieger (who also has 250 recipes posted on foodtv.com,) and Pam Anderson's The Perfect Recipe for losing Weight. I just bought Pam Anderson's cookbook, and I just signed up to take a cooking class with her next month. The book looks pretty simple, like she tells you how to cook chicken breasts, and then gives you a bunch of different sauces you can have with the chicken. She also has a crustless quiche that has 6 or 7 different variations. Looks pretty interesting and I'm looking forward to getting into it. weight watchers has a few out, although the recipes sometimes get mixed reviews. You can also get tons of recipes at cookinglight.com.

Someone was nice enough to give me a gift card to a major bookstore. I found myself in the diet and nutrition cookbook section and of course, there is a ton of stuff out there.
So tell me, what is your favorite, most used cookbook that helps you keeping a healthy lifestyle?
I'm hoping a lot of you reply!
