 The 1200-Calorie-A-Day Menu Cookbook : Quick and Easy Recipe June 20, 2000
45 out of 45 found this review helpful
This book is perfect for me. I want to eat a 1200 calorie a day menu. But I was spending so much time compiling recipes from the various books that I have that I gave up. This book allows you to choose a breakfast, lunch, dinner and dessert. No strict regimen. No matter which meals you choose, you don't exceed 1200 calories. It's perfect. The recipes are more "gourmet" which is what I like to prepare. All the recipes are based on 4 people but its not that difficult to scale down to one or two, it just takes a smidgen of effort. Best recipe book I have found to date.

This book is not what I expected at all, I am going to return it ASAP. All the recipes are for four servings and not easy to break down at all. There was no indication in the title or the review that it was for four servings on every recipe. Definitely not good for a single person. Maybe I'll have better luck next time. There is also no mention of Ms. Hughes credits either. :\

Finally! A cookbook that includes your 3 meals a day plus wonderful tasty desserts (my favorite). I carry it around all day like a bible, planning my next meal. I've cooked many of the recipes and got my husband to actually eat them with me.
This is my favorite "gourmet" cookbook! January 2, 1999

If you're looking for basics, this probably isn't the cookbook for you. But the recipes are so incredibly good that this is the perfect place to look for the special meal. Who can resist blintzes with cheesecake sauce and raspberries? Or (my favorite) shrimp and cheese chowder? Probably not for the basic in-a-hurry dieters, but a must for the gourmands out there (whether you're cutting calories or not!)
Yum, Yum, Yum!!! August 23, 1998

I found the low-fat recipes to be easy to make (many take only about 15 minutes) and very delicious. The menus simplify my dieting and allow me variety in my meals that I was previously lacking. Face it, I hate cutting fat and calories as much as anyone but The 1200-Calorie- a-Day Menu Cookbook book makes it all just a little bit easier, tastier,and almost pleasant! Nutritional information provided with each recipe is very helpful.
