"This book incorporates Diane's 'get healthy' regimen with fabulous recipes. She was the inspiration for Suzanne Sommers' cookbooks/health books, too - which are also quite good. I have bought this as a gift for many of my friends. I use it more than any other cookbook I have."

"I consider a cookbook a keeper if there are six or more recipes that I use or want to use. In this book there are at least 20, and I haven't tried them all. What I love about this cookbook is that there are a variety of ethnic tastes - everything from simple steak and chicken to Indian, Mediterranean, and Moroccan flavors. I agree with another reviewer who said the book was worth it for the salad dressing recipes alone. All the ingredients are fresh and unprocessed, and make the dishes tastes like restaurant food. The Schwarzbein Principle diet does not limit the amount of fat you eat, so this cookbook is not for the low-fat dieter. I've been eating the Schwarzbein principle way for 2 months and my health has improved dramatically. If you haven't yet bought the Schwarzbein Principle book, make sure you buy the most current one, called "The Program." A lot has changed since the earlier books, and she's reversed her stance on things, such as using 2% dairy products instead of full-fat ones."

"Of course, it helps to be cooking with butter and cream, but this IS an excellent cookbook. I have been using it for several months for all meals, especially dinners. The recipes are simple and have been consistently delicious. I am just starting to cook serious meals regularly, and this cookbook is easy to follow. As with most kitchens, we have a shelf full of cookbooks. I use this book most of the time, but occasionally supplement with How to Cook Without a Book and Real Vegetarian Thai (when I want something spicy). The Schwarzbein Principle is a great program and this is a great cookbook; well organized and packed with wonderful recipes."
