Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great recipes
My husband had a heart attack recently and I wanted recipes for desserts he could enjoy at special occasions, that the rest of the family would too. There is no scrimping of flavor in the recipes I have tried so far! And it's great for the whole family to be eating desserts that not only taste wonderful but have some added nutrition without unnecessary fats. Highly recommend!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - American Heart Association Low-Fat & Luscios Desserts
Great recipes, loved all that I have tried thus far.I have several cookbooks by AHA, and love them all.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Low fat desserts
This book has great info. The desserts are fabulous and I got an A on my Culinary school Final with one of these desserts!!!



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - sugar - sugar - sugar
The AHA is another industry vested joke. This book is full of processed sugar, white flour, light/lite this and that (meaning a sugar substitute usually containing aspertame or saccharin is used) and other low fat bastardized poisons. When will the public wake up to this huge cholesterol/low fat/statin drug/heart disease farse. Do some honest research, discover the facts and forget this dogma.

On the other hand...use this book, eat what is recommended, and you'll have so many problems ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great suggestions as well as recipes
