Product Description

Low-carb cooking. So, meat for breakfast, meat for lunch and meat for dinner, with a side helping of cream, right? Wrong. How about onion bhajias, sesame stir-fried duck and a fabulously retro Black Forest trifle for pudding (yes! pudding!). If you’re very good, we’ll even show you how to make a low-carb cheese and ham toastie. Here is the most ingenious, least diety diet food in the world – but eating this way has resulted in tens of thousands of women losing unbelievable amounts of weight. Packed with brand spanking new recipes from the authors and Bee Rawlinson – a veritable Nigella for low-carbers – this book features over 100 delicious and simple recipes for breakfasts, snacks, soups, main meals, treats and desserts, including quick and easy recipes which just use five ingredients; food for people who live alone and want something wonderful to eat that doesn’t involve six different pans and new ways to make you love your veg. Plus ideas for canapés, travelling and picnic snacks, breakfast alternatives and lots more… With each recipe geared to a phase in the Idiot-Proof Diet, this fantastic cookbook will inspire you, delight you, and – best of all – make you shrink like you wouldn’t believe.

Not like any cookery book I have used before
Excellent companion volume to the idiot proof Diet but empahtically not a substitute for it.Had been lucky enough to try some of bees recipes before and not only do they help you lose weight but they got me back in the kitchen.Her love of cooking is infectious and this book fizzes with bright ideas.Book itself is beautifully produced

The easiest and tastiest lo carb diet food!
A few years ago I tried a lo carb diet, and though the results were good, didn't keep me interested enough to stay on it.

Bee, India, and Neris have created many fantastic recipes, that are not hard to make, but extremely tasty, and keep your tastebuds (and tummies) satisfied.

Its also not all meat meat meat like on other diets, but is balanced with lots of veggies and salads too.

Thank you for such a great book!

Brilliant
This is a wonderful addition to the diet book. The recipes are absolutely doable - you don't need to be a Michelin star chef to follow and cook delicious food. In fact, this is one of the most important aspects of this book: easy-to-follow recipes that don't take up ages in preparation time. This suits the busiest person who doesn't have hours to prepare and cook and the relatively inexperienced cook. Congratulations to Bee, Neris and India!
