Rating: - Reasonable concept, inedible recipes
The general concept behind this book is probably sound but one needs to adapt the concept to your personal lifestyle. While I'm no expert on diets, though I have managed to come up with a system that works for me, I have learned that for a diet to work you have to be able to stay on it forever. It needs to be a reasonable modification of habits and not just some strange 4 week plan.
That being said, some of the recipes in this book would make Hannibal Lecter throw up. So far I've carefully tried about a dozen and I have to say only a few even come up to mediocre. The Vegetable Gumbo on page 238 looks very much like the bottom of a swamp but without the flavor. Surprisingly this recipe has most of my favorite vegetables in it which begs the question as to why it's so ghastly.
On page 237 you'll find what purports to be Sweet and Sour Stuffed Cabbage. Arguably one of my favorite dinners. First of all 1 cup of brown sugar makes this taste more like candied cabbage than sweet and sour. Even with adding more lemon juice this just doesn't work.
These are not recipes to serve to guests unless you're the cook for a maximum security prison, however, if you take your own favorite recipes and substitute vegetables for meat, you might be able to accomplish the idea.
