Fantastic Food With Splenda by Marlene Koch (2004, Hardcover)

I purchased this great cookbook because my husband was diagnosed as pre-diabetic. We were both pleasantly surprised with the selection of recipes, including delicious desserts, which he has enjoyed testing.
I highly recommend this to anyone who is trying to avoid sugar.

When I decided to remove some of the processed sugar from my family's diet, I needed help on how to use a sugar substitute, such as Splenda, in recipes.

This book provides a wonderful variety of recipes that are easy to prepare and ingredients that can be found in most grocery stores.

The dessert recipes are our favorites, especially since we are chocolate lovers. A good book for any cook willing to try something new.

Marlene Koch's Fantastic Food With Splenda is an excellent cookbook for dieters and diabetics. It begins with a lot of information about Splenda, about nutritional guidelines, counting points for Weight Watchers and diabetic exchanges. I've lost 30 pounds in the past year using both Atkins and Weight Watchers guidelines, so substituting Splenda for sugar helps me enjoy sweets that I would have bypassed.

I've tried smoothies (4 POINT-mmm), hot cocoa mix-1 POINT -but was very clumpy in the bottom of the cup; may need further adjustments, breakfast bars at 2 POINTS a piece, and very filling. The pumpkin muffins were too cloyingly sweet for my taste--even the people at work didn't devour them quickly. The cream cheese-filled pumpkin roll was delicious, and my diabetic mother thought so too. My daughter-in-law, a type-1 diabetic, enjoyed the Quick Cinnamon rolls at 2 POINTS a piece, or an exchange of 1 carb, 1/2 fat.

The book also includes recipes for salads and salad dressings, main dishes, vegetables, desserts, sauces, condiments--it's a real find. In fact, I checked it out of the public library first, discovered it was a "must-have" for me, and found a great deal for it on ebay.

This book has tons of very good recipies. This has also been great to go along with all of my South Beach Diet Collection of Cookbooks. Great for a low carb lifestyle!

I am a diabetic and was looking for some great recipes. I read great reviews on Marlene Koch's books. I have bought a total of 3 and love them all. They have great recipes and easy to do.

Very speedy delivery. I had to e-mail the buyer to see when it would be shipped. Thought buyer should have contacted me. Otherwise, very happy with sale.

service was excellent. I would use this service again and reccomend it to anyone. I had read book before and knew it was what I needed.
