Simple, straight-forward, and oh so yummy! (Rating: 5.00) Review : I hate to cook, but eating out 2 and 3 times a day finally took its toll on my health and my pocketbook. So I picked up Dana's book figuring that if it only took 15 minutes I'd have less of a chance of burning down the kitchen. ;-) I have several recipes I love, but the absolute worth-the-price-of-admission one is her "Honey" Mustard Dipping Sauce. I am getting SOOOOO addicted to it that I'm finding myself picking my meals based on whether or not they include things that I can put it on! It's so easy to make that it adds a negligible amount of time to the prep of any of the other recipes. And they really are 15 minute recipes. (And since I hate to cook, 15 minutes is about all the time I'm willing to spend on it.) The recipes usually only have a few ingredients, they are real easy to make, and so far I've only run into one that I don't like (but I think that's just because I don't like curry powder). I even had to go out and buy a big bottle of Brandy so I can indulge regularly in Shrimp in Brandy Cream -- it is positively decadent. (Now if I could just find a place online to buy guar/xanthum I'd be set!) I have and enjoy her previous book on 500 Low Carb Recipes, so I picked this one up as soon as I saw it. Like many people out there, I am thrilled to have quick and easy recipes to make. I don't always want to spend hours in the kitchen! There are bunches of 15 minute breakfasts, collections of 15 minutes chicken and turkey dishes, 15 minute salads and tuna dishes. There is even a collection of slow cooker recipes that only take 15 minutes of prep time. There are soups and dipping sauces, drinks and vegetables, and of course desserts! If you think low carb has to be difficult or boring, think again. These dishes are quick, healthy, and quite delicious. Highly recommended! |
