I was provided a free copy of this cookbook to review. No other compensation was provided. All opinions expressed are 100% my own.
When I was asked to review a new cookbook by Audrey John entitled Lose Weight by Eating, I knew I had to give it a try. The premise for this book is clean eating recipe makeovers for guilt-free comfort food. I was amazed by all the absolutely wonderful recipes that I can make and eat while losing weight too. Usually I only find three or four recipes from one cookbook. I have 14 recipes bookmarked. I have already tried 4 recipes in one week. There are no crazy, unusual or hard to find ingredients. There are beautiful photos, and easy to follow directions. The author has successfully lost weight and kept it off as proof that these recipes can help you lose weight the clean eating way.
In the coming days I will share recipes from the book for Peanut Butter and Banana Pancakes, Breakfast Cookies, and BBQ flavored Potato Chips.
Now back to these delicious, easy to make, and impressive Bananas Foster. You guys, both the husband and my baby girl don’t like bananas, but add sugar and booze and viola’ they now love them.
