Low Carb 1-2-3: 225 Simply Great 3-Ingredient Recipes

by Rozanne Gold, Helen Kimmel

Chef James Quick Review
This is a keeper - a recipe book you will still be using years from now.
Don't let the '3 ingredients' fool you. These recipes may only have 3 ingredients, but they are very tasty and varied - from 'very low carb' to 'just counting carbs'. Don't expect a book full of 3 minute recipes either - some of these recipes are quick and easy - but many are not. Rozanne Gold has a knack for developing very good 3 ingredient recipes, and working with Helen Kimmel, a registered dietitian and certified nutritionist, she has come up with a great low-carb addition to her '3 ingredient' recipe book series.
