The Richard Simmons Farewell to Fat Cookbook: Homemade in the U. S. A
We are now so familiar with Simmons as a diet and exercise guru that just a tiny leap of imagination lands us in his kitchen--for more than 80 recipes of low-fat, low-cholesterol eating. Although certainly not so polished a heart-healthy chef as Graham Kerr, Simmons packs his own brand of American cooking: simple-to-fix down-home recipes with the "evil" stuff omitted. And he also wields a quirky, pun-filled sense of humor, evident both in the text and in the names of dishes. Any reader's comfort level will be increased further by the up-front times shown for preparation and cooking, baking, broiling, and marinating, as well as by the innumerable sidebars on mustards, hams, pasta shapes, and other culinary information. Expect library patrons to make reservations for this title.Barbara Jacobs--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
