Product Description

Devin Alexander, author of the New York Times bestseller, The Biggest Loser Cookbook, lets you have your cake and lose weight, too, with sinfully tempting — yet amazingly healthy — recipes for America’s all-time favorite foods.

Chef and former L.A. caterer Devin Alexander has maintained a fifty-five-pound weight loss for over sixteen years by transforming the dishes she and millions of other Americans love best into guilt-free (yet still outrageously mouth-watering) indulgences--Rigatoni with Meat Sauce, BBQ Bacon Cheeseburgers, Eggplant Parmesan, Sinless Yet Sinful Sticky Buns, and even Dark Chocolate Layer Cake with Chocolate Buttercream Frosting.

These simple-to-prepare recipes for the kind of delectable dishes people crave but feel they can’t eat when trying to be healthy and trim, actually can be the basis of a personal weight-loss plan. They can also be a way to add “off-limit” foods back into an already successful diet. Or they can simply be part of an exciting new way to eat healthfully — and with pleasure.

In The Most Decadent Diet Ever! Devin Alexander proves that even the most decadent dishes — Chipotle Chili with Blue Cheese Crumbles, "Fried" Jumbo Shrimp, Super-Stuffed Steak Soft Tacos, Fettu-Skinny Alfredo, Godiva Brownie Sundaes, and Chocolate Chip Pancakes — can lead to weight loss, good health, and carefree enjoyment.

5 out of 5 stars Love This Book So Far!   May 13, 2008
I bought this book for myself to help with my weightloss journey and my family (who are not watching their weight) have loved the recipes as much as I have. So far, my teenaged son's favorite is the "Better Than Classic Stuffed Shells," with "Almost Mom's Marinara Sauce," and I've made it twice in two weeks.
I just purchased a meat grinding attachment for my stand mixer so I can try my hand at making my own Italian sausage and breakfast sausage, using Devin's recipes.
This book is definitely a keeper, along with the Biggest Loser Cookbook.

I received this book about 1 week ago and have already made 3 of the over 125 WONDERFUL recipes. Theses recipes don't call from 10 ingredients and there is a recipe to feed even the most picky eater(my husband) I have made the rigatoni with meat sauce (husband says it is good) and the chocolate chip pancakes are SO tasty. I am looking foward to diving into this cookbook even more. Devin has outdone herself on this one, this is one cookbook that will not be on a shelf collecting dust.

This book is excellent!!! My husband has actually eaten everything I have made without complaint. Highly unusual for one of my "diet" cookbooks. I recommend the honey pork,horseradish mashed potatoes, and the brownies. If you have trouble with portion control as I do, this book is very helpful.


5 out of 5 stars Another amazing book by Devin Alexander!!!   May 3, 2008

5 out of 5 stars diet food for people who enjoy cooking!   April 29, 2008
 8 out of 8 found this review helpful

This is a great cook book for people who are dieting and really enjoy cooking! All of the recipes are 300 calories or less and the portion sizes are normal/reasonable.

The recipes are fairly simple, but there is actual cooking involved--no microwaving. I enjoy cooking, but am not a gourmet and this cook book is perfect for my ability level.

These recipes are also great for a family. My husband and daughter (age 4) enjoy the food and don't know that it's "light."

Some of the items are a little hard to find--you need access to a natural foods grocery store with a large selection, like Whole Foods, Trader Joes, or a regular grocery store with a large selection of natural foods or specialty items. If you don't have that available in your area, this cookbook could be a little frustrating, as so many of those ingredients are used.

Also, be prepared to make an investment in your pantry if you plan to do a lot of cooking from this cook book. I have a fairly well-stocked kitchen and found myself needing to add several spices, sauces, and types of flour, which were a little on the expensive side.

On the whole, this is an outstanding cook book with great tasting food!
