Fran McCullough has turned out a really good book here.
Being one of the unfortunates who can't even look at sweeteners, I have only given the dessert chapter a cursory glance.
However for the rest of it, if you have a large family or like to entertain, this should definitely be in your kitchen bookshelf.
It's American with Italian and possibly Jewish influences, written by someone who actually does low carb. It's just good hearty food with some twists.
Recipes include oven barbecued brisket, one pot chicken with red peppers, baked eggplant, lime scallops, baked chard with chillies, wild rice, meatloaf, curried tofu, Asian roast duck, fried chicken, Vichyssoise - all sorts. Providing you check a recipe, this book will happily provide food for the gluten and lactose intolerant, for vegetarians and meat eaters alike.
I get fed up, looking through supposed Paleo, diabetic and low carb cookbooks and seeing high carbs. So it's a major plus factor that the majority of recipes have carbs under 10g per serving. In fact this book could be used by people eating a very low carb diet.
Fran McCullough does use flour for egg n flouring stuff but sesame flour or coconut flour should fix that and she does use wild rice - which is completely different to the easy cook white stuff.
About the only criticism I have, is that although there are recipes for two, most are for four, six, even eight.
I give this a solid 8 out of 10
