Quaint ideas but not reference material for diabetics...
In some circles "Snack Attack" is touted as a good reference "snack" cookbook for diabetics and while there are some quaint ideas for good snacks, the book is only moderately useable for diabetics.Peruse the margins for the nutritional information and you may soon realize that these "Guilt-free Treats" may only be relatively healthy depending on your current diet.But for diabetics... be very careful: too much sugar and too many carbohydrates per meal, per serving.

Misleading title
Not so much snacks as general items. Recipes full of uninspiring substitutes - for example, if you are wary of the additions needed to make cottage cheese fat-free - instead of interesting alternatives.

Great Snack Book
I ordered the Snack Attack book for my wife, since she rarely orders on line. She loves it!!! and I enjoy the rewards! Great book, fantastic snack ideas, recipes and organization. May order a few more for gifts! Great snacks for everyone, not just diabetics.

Yummy
Lots of great quick recipes for the diabetic.

The volume I got has been evidently used by a 'heavy' smoker and still carries the scent.Nothing against this book, but the particular seller.This means I will buy more new and less used books in the future.

Not what I expected
It had some good recipes to try but for the most part not anything great. A lot of it is time consuming and not a "ready" snack. ... Read more

Hot Snacks For Diwali - Healthy & Delicious Snacks
by Kanchan Kabra

Snacks is an indispensable part of any meal, may it be any cuisine, without snacks any meal seems to be impossible and incomplete.

I have traveled across the world and noticed the fact that it may be any occasion, any where, any time; a crunchy snack is always a part of the meal. Snacks can be of various types soft, crunchy, fried, steamed or grilled. It does not necessarily mean that they have to be high in calorie; infact most of the snacks can be prepared low in calorie by following original method or sometime by making a slight change in the preparation process.

As the times have changed, people have less and less time to be backing home for a lunch/ dinner, they prefer carrying snacks in tiffin boxes. As the snacks can be relished at any time of the day with tea or coffee. Most of the food chains which are newly coming up under stand the time’s need and their menu consist of more snacks items. One major advantage is that they are fast to cook and can be preserved for a long time. Snack meal is complete in terms of tummy fillers and also in terms of nutritive balanced diet.

About The Author:

It is the Oscars in the World of Food and Wine, and this Supreme honour was bestowed to Kanchan G. Kabra in Spain for her work, “The Paneer Cook Book”

When the then President of USA. Mr. Bill Clinton came to visit Gujarat, India the onus of preparing the menu was given to her.

The author then presented her bestseller work, “The Gujarat cookbook” to the impressed president.

Healthy Snack
by Tarla Dalal

We all face snack attacks: after work, when the kids are hungry and we're frazzled from a hectic day, late in the evening while watching TV, or on lazy weekend afternoons. Snacking has become a way of life for both adults and children. Many common snack foods are high in fat, sugar and sodium. If these foods are used for snacks frequently, they can affect our health… and their goes all our efforts to lead a healthy life.

Being concerned about this very fact, I, along with my team of chefs and nutritionists, brought together a horde of 40 healthy snack recipes that are clubbed under 5 different sections.

The section on 'Quick Snacks' includes quick and easy-to-make recipes. Under the 'School Time Snacks' section you will find quick and easy healthy snack ideas for your kids when they get home from school. 'Snacks for Entertaining' is a section that consists of interesting recipes that are sure to gain all the praises at parties. The section on 'Finger Foods' is flooded with innovative snack ideas to munch on at any time of the day. 'Fruity Snacks' is a unique section replete with snacks exclusively made with fruits, for all of you to enjoy good health.

This book offers you a wide variety of healthy snacks that will satisfy your hunger, supply your body with energy and provide important nutrients.

Awesome cookbook
I tend to buy a lot of unhealthy snacks at the supermarket, but after buying this cookbook, I have started making a lot of my own snacks and found the joy in creating healthy but really tasty snacks for my whole family. A lot of these snacks are easy and fun to whip up and it's a great way to get the kids involved in making their own favorite foods. I highly recommend it for somebody who wants to eat healthier but does not want to go on a restrictive diet. You'll naturally start gravitating towards healthier but still very flavorful food choices!

Yummy, fun read!
I love this book!
Laura Trice presents a whole philosophy of how to eat simple, delicious goodies, and her introduction and tone throughout the book are accessible and enjoyable.
My favorite recipe is the almond energy muffins. The recipe replaces flour (I don't eat wheat) with almond meal, which is high in protein and good fats. I don't tend to have agave nectar around the house, but I've made it with over-ripe bananas, or molasses, or maple syrup, and they always come out great!

Wonderful book for guilt-free snacking
This is a terrific book for anyone trying to eat healthy foods and serve healthy foods to loved ones. How great, to be able to make treats like ice cream, cookies, cakes and pies with all natural ingredients! Laura's recipes are easy to follow, and the ingredients are readily available at Whole Foods or other natural foods stores. I've made many of the recipes in the book already and my family has raved about them. A must-have addition to the cookbook collection of anyone who cooks for a family.

Tasty, Healthy, and Accessible
Finally! A "healthy snack" cookbook that offers us more than celery sticks with peanut butter, cookies that taste like sand, and baked apples! Too many of the current cookbook offerings in the good nutrition arena are full of recipes that few adults would find enjoyable, let alone children. Dr. Laura's cookbook is chock-full of easy to make, palatable sweets and snacks that, like the Bite-lettes and other foods she retails, can be enjoyed by everyone. Dr. Laura even shares the recipes for the cookies that you can find on the shelves of "W.F." and other markets.Now, that's integrity!

Though the book's cover shows some enticing-looking sweets, there are also plenty of savory options--cucumber snacks and mini-pizzas, for example, that will satisfy those without a sweet tooth. I, personally, love the recipes for smoothies, sparklers, and other drinks such as the refreshing spa water and a banana shake that is much less threatening than the thousand-calorie catastrophe they sell at "J.J."

Don't overlook the first few chapters on ingredients, reading labels, and nutrition. You may think you know all about it, but Dr. Laura explains it all in a way that is sensible and memorable without being preachy. I tend to skip over these things, too, but was glad I took the time to read through these important chapters. I'd read about trans fats, corn syrup, and white flour and sugar before, but honestly, this was the first time I actually retained the information.

Thank you, Dr. Laura, for making chocolate chip cookies, lemonade, and cherry pie accessible to all of us without forcing us to eat carob, artificial sweeteners, and goopy pie filling from a can!

Just what I've been looking for
This cookbook is a dream come true for me.I love baking, and I love eating things I have baked, and I have a serious sweet tooth -- but I'm also very conscious of my health and eating habits.These interests are obviously often in conflict, but the Wholesome Junk Food Cookbook has gone a long way towards resolving the conflict.As other reviewers have mentioned, it is really wonderful that this cookbook is not just a collection of recipes, but also a primer on healthy ingredients and healthy baking techniques.It was a lot of fun to go out and buy a bunch of new ingredients to re-stock my baking cupboard with things that would be way less harmful to my body.The recipes themselves are awesome too.I am a particularly big muffin fan, and the muffin section is a goldmine.Definitely try the golden pineapple carrot muffins; they are every bit as good (and nourishing!) as they sound. ...

MLM products? Religious Cult?
Seems this chick jumped on the RawFood bandwagon only to advertise the multi level marketing scam KrystalSalt and KlamathLake bluegreen algae along with a plug for her pal Daniel Barron leader of the cult EBE
Can anybody with more experience in rawfood recomend a starter book for me? I live by myself in an efficiency apartment and have extremely limited resources. So I'm looking for super simple without the need for elaborate gadgets.

A welcome and highly recommended addition to vegetarian, family, and community library cookbook collections
Every dietician notes that the typical modern American fast-food, microwave frozen food oriented diet is woefully insufficient when it comes to the consumption of fruits and vegetables. That's why nutrition and health consultant Mary Rydman draws upon her more than twenty years of professional and personal experience and expertise to compile and publish "Raw Food Quick & Easy: Over 100 Healthy Recipes Including Smoothies, Seasonal Salads, Dressings, Pates, Soups, Hearty Creations, Snacks, and Desserts". Each recipe is specifically designed for time-pressured kitchen cooks who, while not being able to spend extended time in the preparation of their family meals, nonetheless want to serve family and friends with healthy, palate pleasing, appetite satisfying fare. More than just a collection of recipes showcasing the culinary accomplishments to be gleaned from fruits and veggies, "Raw Foods Quick & Easy" also provides practical and useful information on soaking, sprouting, dehydrating, and storing raw foods, key tools and ingredients when dealing with raw foods in the kitchen, and even 'user friendly' advice on increasing vital nutrients through what we eat. Of special note is the chapter devoted to 'Food and Emotions'. Featuring recipes ranging from Cauliflower Cream Curry; Vegetable Crackers; and Sesame Fudge Cookies; to Angel Pudding; Tomato Olive Soup; and Buckwheat Crunchies, "Raw Foods Quick & Easy" is a welcome and highly recommended addition to vegetarian, family, and community library cookbook collections.

Love It
I disagree with this other review.Vegans can choose not have to used raw eggs or goat cheese--these are simply an option offered by the author as a way to get vitamin B12 content in a "useable form that is hard to get from other sources."She certainly doesn't push it on people, as the egg yolk is optional the few recipes that list it as an ingredient.

You need to weigh rare risks against the health benefits that a raw food can provide.If you know the conditions that your produce and even eggs come from, you'll have a slim chance at risking a bacterial infection, especially compared to mass produced foods from a big distributor.

I found the recipes I've made in the book so far to be great.The book is about healthy recipes that are quick and easy to make--it's not about the fanciest recipe you can make from raw food.I definitely recommend this book to people who don't want to spend hours in the kitchen and who still want to eat raw and healthy
