Dewey Decimal Number: 641.5635 EAN: 9780767928816 ISBN: 0767928814 Label: Broadway Manufacturer: Broadway Number Of Items: 1 Number Of Pages: 240 Publication Date: April 22, 2008 Publisher: Broadway Release Date: April 22, 2008 Sales Rank: 316 Studio: Broadway Editorial Review: Devin Alexander, author of the New York Times bestseller, The Biggest Loser Cookbook, lets you have your cake and lose weight, too, with sinfully tempting — yet amazingly healthy — recipes for America’s all-time favorite foods. Chef and former L.A. caterer Devin Alexander has maintained a fifty-five-pound weight loss for over sixteen years by transforming the dishes she and millions of other Americans love best into guilt-free (yet still outrageously mouth-watering) indulgences--Rigatoni with Meat Sauce, BBQ Bacon Cheeseburgers, Eggplant Parmesan, Sinless Yet Sinful Sticky Buns, and even Dark Chocolate Layer Cake with Chocolate Buttercream Frosting. These simple-to-prepare recipes for the kind of delectable dishes people crave but feel they can’t eat when trying to be healthy and trim, actually can be the basis of a personal weight-loss plan. They can also be a way to add “off-limit” foods back into an already successful diet. Or they can simply be part of an exciting new way to eat healthfully — and with pleasure. In The Most Decadent Diet Ever! Devin Alexander proves that even the most decadent dishes — Chipotle Chili with Blue Cheese Crumbles, 'Fried' Jumbo Shrimp, Super-Stuffed Steak Soft Tacos, Fettu-Skinny Alfredo, Godiva Brownie Sundaes, and Chocolate Chip Pancakes — can lead to weight loss, good health, and carefree enjoyment.

 Rating: - Devin did it again-A must buy!!Where do I begin? Devin has done it again! The "Most Decadent Diet Ever" is one of a kind. I have tons of diet/lowfat cookbooks at home and this book is the first one I've used where I have basically been stumped into thinking that the recipes are fatty. The recipes are loaded with taste and flavor which give off a fatty impression. And she doesn't use any processed or fake ingredients like some of the other cookbooks out use. I've made a bunch of recipes so far and every single one of them blew me away. The Chicken Picata is out of this world and tastes so much like the real full fat version, and all the desserts are killer! THE MOST DECADENT DIET EVER IS A MUST BUY! Rating: - Easy, tasty, and healthy -- you can't lose!I wanted to cook at home to eat healthier, but I really have no experience in the kitchen. Maybe a couple dishes here and there. This book promised tasty and healthy recipes, but I was nervous my limited skills would not be enough to pull them off. Well, either I am a heretofore unknown culinary master with extra virgin olive oil in my blood, or Alexander has written a fantastic cookbook accessible to even the most all-thumbs kitchen n00bs. (Probably the latter.) Her clear, detailed instructions didn't assume I had grown up in a French restaurant, and her cheery writing style gave me the confidence of Julia Child. Not to mention, the dishes have been delicious. I've tried four so far and haven't hit a dud yet. This is a great gift for anyone - not just experts or dieters. As Alexander so deftly teaches by example, if you don't have to sacrifice your favorite foods, why not eat healthier? Rating:  - So disappointed!I had such high hopes for this cookbook. I was looking for a way to reduce unnecessary calories but still retain excellent taste. After trying this cookbook, I'm convinced it can't be done. I've tried about 6 recipes so far. Three of them, I took one bite and threw the rest away. The other three I ate a serving of and will never make them again. I will try a couple more recipes before I just get rid of the book, but I'm not very hopeful of a satisfactory outcome. I think my expectations were unrealistic. I wanted reduced calorie/fat food that didn't taste "diet". This is definitely diet food in my opinion. It may be not bad for diet food, but I would certainly not classify it as really good food. Rating: - Love This Book So Far!I bought this book for myself to help with my weightloss journey and my family (who are not watching their weight) have loved the recipes as much as I have. So far, my teenaged son's favorite is the "Better Than Classic Stuffed Shells," with "Almost Mom's Marinara Sauce," and I've made it twice in two weeks. I just purchased a meat grinding attachment for my stand mixer so I can try my hand at making my own Italian sausage and breakfast sausage, using Devin's recipes. This book is definitely a keeper, along with the Biggest Loser Cookbook.
