"As a Registered DIetition, I'm always looking for that combination of good taste and good nutrition. These are the best desserts I've ever tasted and what a bonus to be so packed with nutrients!" Eileen Stellefson Myers, MPH, RD, FADA "Well I have to admit that I was skeptical about how low-fat, low-cholesterol, reduced calorie dessert recipes tasting even remotely like desserts. I was glad to be proven wrong with this delightful book. Each one of the desserts has significantly less fat (often one third less), has almost completely eliminated cholesterol, and has added nutrients and minerals. I have always equated less fat with less taste simply because that has been my experience, now I can say that less fat can still mean delicious." Harold McFarland, Editor, Readers Preference Reviews "Power Desserts is the answer to a 'sweet tooth's' prayer! The pages are filled with luscious desserts that are not only good tasting, but good for you." Arlene Shovald, Ph.D. author of Arlene's Cuisine, The Mountain Mail newspaper, Salida, Colorado "Power Desserts adds a whole newdimension to everybody's favorite part of dinner by not only cutting the calories, but making the desserts nutritious as well. What better way to get your daily dietary requirements than with German Chocolate Cake, Raspberry Lemon Pie or Oatmeal Cranberry Cookies? Detailed nutrition boxes back up the claim of healthy baking." Myrna Collins, Cookbook Reviewer, The Post Crescent
