taste AND technique November 14, 2006 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
The recipies I've tried so far DO deliver on taste but what I wasn't expecting was how many cooking tips and techniques the author included -- a bonus that earns this book a place on my shelf. She knows her stuff!
Great for the Reforming Fast Food Junkie! September 26, 2006 As a guy who LOVES fast food (give me anything fried!), I've been disappointed to find my metabolism slowing as I get older. Translation: I now find myself packing on the pounds when I eat fast food. This book shows quick and easy ways to prepare some of my favorite fast food items, in a way that tastes just as good, but isn't hard on the waist line. It's a good thing, too, because I don't know if I ever could have given up the drive thru!
The secret is out! September 24, 2006 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
As someone who craves McDonalds french fries, but desperately steers my car away from the drive-thru, it's nice to know that I can still get my "fast food fix" without the guilt. I was wary of this book when I first heard about it from a friend and thought that the recipes would take way longer to make than they do. Plus, how could you actually make healthy french fries that still tasted like Mickie D's? I was surprised to find that not only was the food easy and quick to make, but it tastes really good. My days of avoiding the drive-thru are over. Who needs it? I think I've found this year's stocking stuffer!
Fun Food September 23, 2006 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
I don't think you need to be a "fast-food junkie" to enjoy this cookbook. While the calorie- and fat-cutting recipies will certainly be enjoyed by fast-food lovers, the not-too-difficult, easy-to-follow directions let anyone create food that is low in fat but also fun and different. I love the new and improved Frappacino-easy to whip up and everyone is impressed at the resemblance to high-calorie coffeeshop treats.
A godsend! September 23, 2006 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
As a personal trainer and unfortunate lover of fast food (which I never eat but long for) this book was a godsend. The recipes are easy, and taste as close to the real thing as you are going to get. If your cooking skill ends with boiling water, then the recipes in this book may frustrate you, but to the average person, they are easy. I recommend this to anyone who loves fast food, but avoids it for the same reason I do...
