Skinny Potatoes

"Over 100 Delicious New Low-Fat Recipes…"

I'm sort of a starch queen, so I love potatoes, pasta, rice, beans, breads. No surprise that I love butter, sour cream, other additions that add savor and flavor, and that also add unnecessary, unneeded calories. I'll also admit I'm ethnically part Irish and part Russian, so you could say potatoes come naturally to me. Barbara Grunes' opening narrative of potato species, varieties, history fascinated me!

I bought Skinny Potatoes the book for the actual written out recipes, and even more for how the ingredients and prep methods ignite any foodies imagination. It sounds as if the author/compiler has prepared every single recipe she gives us. Doubtless she's tweaked and modified existing recipes to make them healthier, simpler, and skinnier, and invented new ones for our gustatory pleasures.

Easy to follow recipes includes soups and sides and even stir-fries. You also get unconventional toppings for conventional baked spuds. Would you believe potato sweets and desserts? Waffles, pancakes… Skinny potatoes includes nutritional info or "data" for each recipe. Buy this book! You'll enjoy it!
