No Salt, No Sugar, No Fat (Nitty Gritty Cookbooks)

Overall, this is a good book with a solid amount of recipes. My one small concern is that some of the recipes seem to focus on taking out the bad things listed in the title without much concern for taste. If you take out something like salt, then you should make sure you add something else that adds flavor. Many times they sort of rely on salt substitutes, which seems a bit too easy.

My wife was recently told by her doctor to significantly reduce her salt and sugar intake, and we found there were very few such recipes available either in book stores or on the internet. However we eventually discovered this book on the American Amazon, and have found the recipes quite useful. Just a pity that there are not a few more main meal chicken options. Particularly liked the baked salmon recipe which we have eaten several times.

I have not yet tried most of the recipes, but the book has economical ideas on making your own healthy staples: stocks, tomato sauce, salsa as well as fat free methods of cooking and good ideas for healthy substitutions.The most memorable recipe for an easy, refreshing and colorful dessert is Fourth of July Fruitcake which is really a gel.

It will be a great help as I change my eating habits to a healthier life.

This book shows you how to cut the bad stuff out of your cooking. It tells how to use substitutes in any recipe, plus gives good recipes for you to use. Very helpful and simple. I purchased several of these books for my family from Amazon.

this book was purchased as a gift for my friends mom & although I dont know how she likes it, I would buy it again- for myself.

My husband was recently diagnosed with Congestive Heart Failure and was put on a low-sodium diet of less than 1500mg of salt a day. My husband's choice of food has been radically changed. I was so looking forward to this cookbook and the recipes. Unfortunately there were only a couple of recipes that I will be able to use. There are a number of low-fat and low sugar recipes, but not enough low-salt recipes to be worth the money.

This is a book that was recommended for my mother by her cardiologist many years ago. My mother passed on 5 years ago and the book became misplaced. I decided to try Amazon to get it and I now have it. Love this book!
