Editorial Review: Product Description: Devin Alexander, author of the New York Times bestseller, The Biggest Loser Cookbook, lets you have your cake and lose weight, too, with sinfully tempting — yet amazingly healthy — recipes for America’s all-time favorite foods. Chef and former L.A. caterer Devin Alexander has maintained a fifty-five-pound weight loss for over sixteen years by transforming the dishes she and millions of other Americans love best into guilt-free (yet still outrageously mouth-watering) indulgences--Rigatoni with Meat Sauce, BBQ Bacon Cheeseburgers, Eggplant Parmesan, Sinless Yet Sinful Sticky Buns, and even Dark Chocolate Layer Cake with Chocolate Buttercream Frosting. These simple-to-prepare recipes for the kind of delectable dishes people crave but feel they can’t eat when trying to be healthy and trim, actually can be the basis of a personal weight-loss plan. They can also be a way to add “off-limit” foods back into an already successful diet. Or they can simply be part of an exciting new way to eat healthfully — and with pleasure. In The Most Decadent Diet Ever! Devin Alexander proves that even the most decadent dishes — Chipotle Chili with Blue Cheese Crumbles, "Fried" Jumbo Shrimp, Super-Stuffed Steak Soft Tacos, Fettu-Skinny Alfredo, Godiva Brownie Sundaes, and Chocolate Chip Pancakes — can lead to weight loss, good health, and carefree enjoyment.

 Rating: - worth it just for the chocolate dessertsI cook a lot and know how to make my own favorite recipes lower calorie and lower fat so I doubted this book would be worth my money and borrowed it from the library first. Having said that, I now can't go more than a few days without opening this cookbook. The chocolate fudge cake, brownies, and souffle-type chocolate cakes are staples at my house! I can't stand anything that tastes low fat and these recipes don't. I'm not even tempted to eat the high fat stuff when I have these options. My husband ... Read More Rating: - Good Recipes, Good Food!I purchased this cookbook after reading a review from another cookbook I had purchased before, I didn't like that cookbook and when I read the review someone else wrote about it they suggested this cookbook. I figured what the heck let me try it. Needless to say, the recipes come wonderful. Sometime's I want to question if this really is good for me. Devin Alexander did a great job on constructing this cookbook. The Ingredients are simple and she tell's you in the beginning of the book where to find ...

We highly recommend the Chicken Picatta, Chocolate chocolate brownie cups, mostly moms marinara, and the honey glazed spiced pork tenderloin. I have always enjoyed cooking but these meals have made me feel like a chef! Very simple and very impressive dishes. I can't wait to try more! I have several healthy cookbooks (it's an obsession)but this is by far the best! Rating: - Love this cookbook!I can't beleive how easy these recipes are. My favorite, so far, is the Oven-Roasted broccoli - and my family loves it so much, they ask for it! I have been following Devin on FitTV and look for her recipes on line. She is just amazing how she make fattening foods healthier. Its not just a diet, but a healthy new way to cook!! Rating:  - The most decadent diet ever cookbookThis is a very good cookbook but has limited receipes for the price. They are very good and the kids even like them
