End food boredom and diet burnout with more than 400 sophisticated, low-carbohydrate dinners that are bursting with flavor--and on the table in under 30 minutes!

Hundreds of thousands have embraced the low-carbohydrate lifestyle finding that a diet based on lean protein, fruits, and vegetables and less dependent on simple carbohydrates has helped them look and feel better. But a monotonous menu of steak and salad or expensive, additive-laden prepared foods has been the undoing of many a successful diet regimen.

The solution? Linda West Eckhardt and Katherine West DeFoyd have devised more than 100 protein-rich, low-carbohydrate dinners that will satisfy even the most demanding diners. Drawing on their experiences as award-winning cookbook authors, Eckhardt and DeFoyd have developed a tempting range of high-protein meals that are quick enough to make on a weeknight but elegant enough to share with guests -- and so delicious they'll never know they've been shortchanged on carbohyd rates, fat, and calories.

Each entree in The High-Protein Cookbook
* Provides at least 30 grams of protein, yet is light on fat and calories.
* Is styled for two people but can easily be doubled or tripled
* Uses short lists of fresh, healthful ingredients
* Is based on simple cooking techniques requiring no special equipment
* Avoids "artificial" products and flavorings
* Contains reasonable amounts of high-quality protein balanced by ample servings of vegetables and fruits

With chapters devoted to side dishes and salads, sauces and condiments, and even sinfully satisfying desserts that won't break the carbohydrate bank, The High-Protein Cookbook is the perfect companion to many of today's most popular dietary regimens and an enticing argument for cutting back on excess carbohydrates.


 

What Customers Say About The High-Protein Cookbook: More than 150 healthy and irresistibly good low-carb dishes that can be on the table in thirty minutes or less.:

I gave the book away. The high protein cook book was too gourmet for me. I have very few of the ingredients in the house and if bought I would only use them for that one dish.

This is not a good cookbook for bariatric patients. High protein cooking should not have to be high in fat to make it look and taste good. I wish I could return it. While this cookbook has some great looking recipes, for those of you out there who have had bariatric surgery, as I've just had, pay close attention to the fat and carbs in these recipes. Many of these recipes are made with heavy cream, butter and oils, that I can no longer have.

Sometimes my doctoring works and sometimes it doesn't. I think. I bought a cookbook so I wouldn't have to experiment like that.The recipes also call for lots of extra touches that are wasted on my family and increase the cost. I did figure out "flat-leaf parsley" is the same as "Italian parsley", but I'm still not sure what shallots are -- I think we call them green onions in California. For example, one recipe calls for using peanut oil, sesame oil and vegetable oil. This is not a good cookbook for the cooking novice or for anyone watching their weight or their fat intake. But if you are into Atkins and you are a foodie, you will probably love it. Another recipe calls for making something on the stove in a sauce pan, making something else in a frying pan and baking something else in the oven.

However, I have had to doctor up most of the recipes to keep the fat and calorie content down. It refers to ingredients that have multiple names by the names used in whatever area the authors are from but aren't the names used in my grocery store. I now own a big container of "Kosher" salt when it turns out I could have just used regular salt in most of the recipes.Finally, the book assumes a level of knowledge that many of us do not have. It would be nice to have a glossary somewhere, so I'm not constantly looking things up on the internet trying to figure out what the directions really mean. I finally figured out that means "set aside". That's a lot to juggle for a meal that is supposed to take 30 minutes.The recipes are also fairly high calorie and high fat. It always talks about "reserving" ingredients. For my purposes, however, it is just "okay."Most of the recipes are overly fussy.

I bought fresh rosemary because a recipe called for it and then found out it was just for a garnish. I wanted a book that would show me how to cook regular food that was high in protein and low in fat. There really doesn't seem to be a good reason for using three different kind of oils. I bought this cookbook because typical "after WLS" cookbooks are full of artificial ingredients and recipes for fake food.

If anyone has any recommendations that sound closer to what I am looking for, besides the Atkins cookbooks, which I already own, please reply to my post with the title. The recipes are also a little fancy for me. This cookbook is just not low-carb enough for me, includes wheat gluten around every corner and is way too fancy. If I had a date over maybe I would use some of the recipes, but definitely not as a TV dinner.

This book may have high protein recipes but they are not really low-carb. I would very much appreciate your assistance with this. I will be returning it. Do they have equal to, or less than, 15 carbs per serving.

If you're thinking about buying this book I would go to a bookstore and look through it first, then come back to Amazon to get it cheaper if you decide it would work for you.I also bought this book because I am going to be having weight loss surgery in a couple months and want to find some good cook books now (my nutritionist recommends 65 grams of protein a day and that I eat protein before anything else on my plate), but I plan on having about 15 carbs per DAY (if that), not just for dinner, and I plan on avoiding anything with wheat gluten as well. Thank you. Yes, but they also include white flour, mango and other high carb fruits and vegetables. I am 28 and live by myself so for me a lot of the recipes are just way over the top for a quiet dinner alone.

HUGE YUK. I did not find these recipes appetizing at all. I cook for a family of for and these are not family friendly at all.
