Hit the Kitchen with Hungry Girl

Just because you're watching your waistline doesn't mean you need to go hungry. Recipes from Hungry Girl--like the Fiber-Fried Chicken Strips featured below--feed your every craving without piling on the calories. What's more, Lisa Lillien's lighthearted love for food and fun shines through in every recipe, making it easy to follow her healthy example and even come up with your own simple calorie-saving shortcuts.

Though she freely admits she's neither a nutritionist nor a doctor, more than 400,000 subscribers rely on author Lillien's 'Hungry Girl' e-newsletter for healthy eating tips. In this congenial compilation, most of which is new to the book, she gives dieters a breakfast-to-dinner approach to eating lighter with scores of easy to prepare dishes. Lillien's recipes enlist low-cal substitutes for traditional ingredients; diet lemon-lime soda and sugar-free powdered lemonade drink mix, for example, go into her Magical Low Calorie Margarita. In some cases, such as her Rockin' Restaurant Spinach Dip, Cheesy Chicken Quesadilla and Dan Good Chili, she approximates high-calorie dishes without sacrificing too much in terms of flavor or texture. Unfortunately, those are the exceptions-the Ice Creamless Banana Split and Cheery Chocolate Cheesecake Nuggets (which calls for diet hot cocoa mix, Splenda, fat free cream cheese and sugar free chocolate syrup) taste more like punishment than dessert. Salads are well represented, though few are served with any kind of dressing, and meat dishes can run sky high in sodium. Tips for smart eating at the office, holiday parties, trips and the movies are appreciated, but the book would have benefited from the input of a licensed nutritionist or dietician.

Rating

- Great Cookbook for Hungry Gals
Offers great alternatives and sneaky tricks of the trade to eat healthier but remain satisfied! 1 Downside is the use of Tofu SHirataki in so many recipes but it is offered in so little stores....for me there is only 1 store about 40 miles away that sells the stuff! Otherwise all the recipes I have tried are delicious and trick you into thinking you are eating the real thing....Try the Buffalo Chicken!

Rating

- Very disappointed
I never received this product and never got a response from two or three e-mails I sent them telling them I never got the book. And my account was charged. I would really like to either get the book or get a refund.

I emailed Amazon twice on the problem of never receiving the book. I got a return email Amazon forwarded the email to the company. However, I never got the book. I bought alot of items from Amazon and this is the firs time I was disappointed.
