'The Ultimate Weight Solution Cookbook' merges high-response cost, high-yield nutrition with approximately 100 to 125 appealing recipes developed to complement Dr Phil's weight management strategies and keys. Crucial building blocks in these strategies involve changing your approach to cooking and food preparation; this cookbook and its recipes are important tools in that regard.
Designed to be used every day of the week, the recipes are structured around the categories of breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, and entertaining for easy meal planning that becomes a part of everyday life. One of the outstanding features of the recipes is that they can be prepared quickly and conveniently, some at a moment's notice, and you do not have to be an experienced cook to do so - just a willing spirit ready and committed to make changes in how you fix and cook your food.
In this cookbook, you'll find familiar, home-style recipes, streamlined with reduced fat, sugar, and salt to match the foods and the food plan guidelines in 'The Ultimate Weight Solution'. Reducing calories, fat, sugar, and salt does not mean cottage cheese and lettuce all week long, however, nor does it mean reducing the pleasures of flavourful food, but rather accepting the challenge of learning a better way of cooking and being creative with substitutes. When you cut back on calories, fat, sugar, and salt, you must add back in taste, smell and texture; this cookbook shows you how. These recipes will be a big hit with your family too - destined to become standards in your mealtime repertoire.
The text that introduces the cookbook and winds through its various sections is vivid with Dr Phil's personal recollections/anecdotes of food and celebrations; perhaps some success stories of people using 'The Ultimate Weight Solution'; a little Texas culinary lore where appropriate; behavioral insights into cooking and meal planning with high-response cost, high-yield foods; plus interesting and helpful facts regarding the nutritional and health payoffs of food that will grab attention. There are tips on creating menus in every category, with suggested menus scattered throughout. Basic nutritional information on each recipe is provided too.
This straightforward, straight-talking cookbook, with its innovative, flavourful recipes is designed as a companion to both 'The Ultimate Weight Solution' and 'The Ultimate Weight Solution Food Guide' and is another necessary tool for supporting the lifestyle changes that are the foundation of lifetime weight management.
'The Ultimate Weight Solution Cookbook' also includes Dr Phil's Rapid Start Plan, providing 14 days of pre-planned menues designed to give you a jump-start on losing weight. Each day on the Rapid Start Plan includes one or more of the many great-tasting dishes in this cookbook
