Does anyone have any low calorie cookbooks they recommend?
I'm looking to buy a couple and would love some input.
Thanks so much!

    I LOVE the South Beach Diet Quick and Easy Cookbook. In fact, I've been loving all the recipes in all their cookbooks and books. But that particular book, I've been using non-stop! Had the Indian Chicken last night.. Delicious. As well as the Turkey Parmigian.

    Cooking Light is one of my favs, I also have a lot of the weight watchers cookbooks even though I am not on weight watchers.

    diabetic and heart healthy meals for two
    any hungry girl cookbook, but my favorite is 200 recipies under 200 calories
    cook yourself thin
    * Skinny *****: Ultimate Every Day Cookbook (little to no swearing)
    * Skinny ***** in the Kitch (full of swearing)



    * If you lean towards veganism, these are good. I am personally trying to incorporate more plant based foods in my diet. If you don't tolerate foul language, then don't buy these books as the authors swear like sailors.

    The 'Symply Too Good to be True' cook book series (6 books so far!) by Annette Sym is great! I've been using her recipes ever since I changed my diet. She has some good tasty recipes! Plus she has all the nutritional information included with all her recipes.
