Summary: Truly Gourmet Food for Low Carb Dieters
Comment: First and foremost, read the title ... this is a MEAT cookbook. Do not expect to find non-meat low carb recipes in this book. It only covers meat, and does an excellent job of suggesting a variety of ways to prepare ... meat!
If you're bored with your current low carb menu and are looking for a cookbook containing fresh, new recipes the whole family will enjoy, you need Barbara Doyen's book, Back to Protein. These recipes are absolutely mouth-watering; even my four-year-old enjoys this food and begs for more.
I found the Atkin's diet difficult at first because before starting this diet I seldom ate meat. These recipes have kept me from feeling deprived; I've lost 40 pounds using these recipes so far and have no doubt that I will be able to continue losing. I do not miss my old way of eating at all because of Barbara's recipes.
Favorites recipes so far are Pork Tenderloin with Mushroom and Tomato Cream Sauce (page 126)and Citrus-Ginger Pork Chops (page 118). Do yourself a favor ... buy the book!

Summary: Great New Cookbook for Atkins Dieters
Comment: The reason the Atkins Diet has worked for me is that I love meat. So I was very pleased to find "Back to Protein," with a new assortment of recipes for main-course meats. (The reviewer who wanted more egg recipes in the book should have read the title before buying: it's "The Low Carb/No Carb Meat Cookbook.")
Lots of recipes for beef, pork, and poultry, and even recipes for less popular meats like lamb and game, plus some seafood recipes as well. The only gripe I have is that the recipes do not include actual carb counts, only a classification of low, very low, trace or no carbohydrates. Those who have to be extremely precise in their carb-counting will need to figure out actual counts on their own.
Other than that, the book is tremendous, as variety is something we all seek in our low-carb way of eating.

Summary: Meat eater's delight
Comment: This is the best meat cookbook I've ever seen. You don't have to be on an Atkin's style low-carb diet to enjoy the recipes given here. She also gives health reasons for eating meat. Another reviewer said she used a lot of pork rinds but that isn't so. A few recipes call for those but if you're not on a low-carb diet, you could easily substitute another breading. This is a must for all meat lovers.
