A few weeks ago, I started a little experiment.  I’ve always loved cookbooks, but some healthy cookbooks leave a little to be desired.  And I also have gotten so out of the habit of cooking at home, even though I love to cook, that I really needed some motivation to get back into cooking on weeknights.  So I decided to choose four healthy cookbooks (above), commit to cook one night a week at home using these books, and then review the books here so you can learn from my experience and decide whether or not to spend your hard-earned clams on any of these books.  So far, I’ve reviewed Rocco Dispirito’s Now Eat This! (miss…) and Ellie Krieger’s The Food You Crave (hit!).  This week, Devin Alexander’s I Can’t Believe It’s Not Fattening! was my dinner-time project.

I had no idea who Devin Alexander is.  I’m not a fan of The Biggest Loser, but apparently she was a nutritional consultant on that show.  She also lost a lot of weight herself and has maintained her loss for many years.  That’s a good sign, I think.
