Another Excellent cookbook find! Test and tried all of them

BrendaPetersen · October 2011

Hi all,

I found another cookbook that is out of this world! I've been working through the reciepes for over 2 years now and all but maybe 5 or 6 of them I wouldn't make again.

It uses common things you stock instead of whacked out things you have to go buy and then might not use again for a long time. It has all the nutrition facts per serving on each reciepe and the exchanges also.

Better Homes and Gardens New Dieter's Cookbook IBSN 0-696-20714-1 hardcover and 0-696-21522-5 softcover

Here is one of the recipes just in case you want to try one first

4 small skinless, boneless chicken breast halves 12 oz toal
Nonstick spray coating

1/4 tsp black pepper

Rinse chicken; pat dry with paper towels.

Spray a shallow baking pan with the nonstick coating.
