George Stella's Good Carb Family Cookbook

I'm not a cook, but my hubby and I are trying to eat fewer carbs. I'll be honest - I was intimidated at first by these recipes. It certainly isn't "3 ingredient meals"! I marked a number of the recipes to try, but then put the book down. Finally I decided to just pick one and try it - picked Southwestern Chicken Taco Stew. That was mostly a success except I accidentally put in half of the chili powder recipe called for. Still we enjoyed it (hubby did add some hot sauce though, LOL) Then I tried another one. And retried the Chicken Taco Stew with the correct amount of chili powder. I'm glad I got started. We have had some great dinners with these recipes. I've even gotten my "I hate chicken" hubby to get excited about chicken dishes - I truly never thought that would ever happen! What I'm probably enjoying most though is that I don't have to interrogate each recipe for carb items and try to figure out how high in carbs it is, or how I can modify, etc. With these recipes I can safely follow them and know we are eating low carb. Here are some of our favs from the book: - Southwestern Chicken Taco Stew (made this several times now!) - Cheesy Ground Turkey "One Skillet" Helper -- made this with both ground turkey and beef, and it was delicious both ways. Has a beef stroganoff flavor to it. - Chicken Cacciatore - Tomato Al Fresco sauce Next up to try - Moroccan Chicken Skillet!

Love it.recipes from a true chef and baker much better in Seasoning then others. Easy. Trusted.ty

George Stella..... well, he is "Stellar" in my humble opinion !! His books are a God-send to me !! I have lost a lot of weight on low carb diets which tend to be boring. George makes recipes that are not too difficult for the average person to emulate. Full of flavor, you don't even realize you are on a low carb diet. !!! Thanks George !! God Bless you and your wonderful family !!

I found George's books to be such a relief! His recipes are very gourmet tasting without a lot of gourmet effort. He's made my low carb plan much easier with tasty, easy recipes. The spices and flavorings are almost always JUST RIGHT. I like how the books are written, the layout, the photos. The nutritional breakdowns are very easy to read.

Good recipes and easy to prepare

I can't say enough about this book! There are no obscure ingredients like other low-carb cookbooks. Everything can be found at a regular grocery store. The only piece of kitchen equipment you will need that you might not already have is a food processor. You'll need that to grind the almonds to make the almond flour, which by the way, is the main component for the pound cake, which is delish!!! From the Crab Stuffed Shrimp, all the way to the Ham Mock Mac & Cheese (which is a personal favorite) this cookbook delivers satisfying dishes that are easy to prepare and full of flavor! Don't pass on this book!

Georges low carb books are great! They are very practical, easy, and yummy meals my whole family enjoys! This book is great for the person that wants that life style change. I purchased all of his books! And I have recommend it to many family members as well!

I came across this cookbook after already purchasing Eating Stella Style last year. I think the Stella's are an amazing family and I love what they have done with this cookbook. Try it, you will not be disappointed! The recipes and very straight forward, the illustrations and pics are great! Great job Stella family!
