Summary

An easy-to-follow plan for healthy weight loss! If you're tired of sugar-free this and low-carb that, constantly restricting your diet to lose weight and stay healthy, The Everything Low-Glycemic Cookbook is the perfect choice for you! According to experts, switching to a low-glycemic index (GI) diet is the key to losing weight--and keeping it off. The GI diet isn't a low-fat diet; you won't find calorie counting or reduced portion sizes. In fact, following the low-GI diet just means eating more low-glycemic foods and avoiding others that have a high GI number. Popular food blogger Carrie Forbes has compiled 300 low-GI meals that are as tasty as they are healthy, including: * Strawberry-banana pancakes * Spicy cilantro dip * Butternut squash soup * Poached chicken with pears and herbs * Country-style pork ribs * Easy vegetarian lasagna with spinach * Grilled lemon-and-dill swordfish steaks * Peanut butter-chocolate chip cupcakes Armed with glycemic index values of common foods and hundreds of recipes for satisfying, delicious dishes, you'll have all you need to lose weight and eat well--every meal of the day!
