  “There isn’t a single soup . . . that doesn’t sound delectable . . . quite impressive considering none of [the] recipes contains more than three grams of fat.” —Publishers Weekly 
   
  There is no better way to tap into today’s soup craze than with this glorious cookbook, filled with more than 100 deliciously low-fat soup recipes. Author Judith Barrett lost pounds and inches using these mouthwatering recipes, each of which contains less than three grams of fat per serving. Cutting the fat posed no bar to creating soups with incredible flavor—Black Mushroom and Spinach Wonton Soup and Creamy Fennel Soup with Shrimp both contain only one gram of fat. 
   
  Barrett offers soups to be savored for every season. In the fall, Creamy Carrot Soup or Roasted Beet Borscht will delight you. Winter Squash Soup with Thyme or Real Gumbo with Okra and Chicken is sure to take the edge off the cold during the snowy months. Come springtime, there is Vidalia Onion Soup or Arugula Vichyssoise, and to beat the summertime heat, make a batch of Cool Cucumber and Yogurt Soup or Creamy Tomato Bisque with Shallots and Tarragon.  
   
  Soups “from the sea,” like Mediterranean Fish Stew and New York Red Clam Chowder, will leave a briny tingle on your palate. If it’s legumes you crave, try: Lentil and Portobello Mushroom Soup or Miami Black Bean Soup. Or experiment with the variety of international soup recipes that are offered, from Chinese Cabbage Soup with Cellophane Noodles to Italian Minestra of Swiss Chard and Rice.

  From the host of Naturally N’awlins, a collection of recipes from the author’s homemade recipes, with adaptions for healthy eating.   From the Matthew, Mark, Luke, and Frank of cooking New Orleans style, a new cookbook containing, “all the old and new ethnic, down-home, make-you-slap-your-momma-twice recipes I couldn't squeeze into the last two cookbooks.” Fried dishes, grillades, rice dishes, gumbos, game dishes, etouffées, and simmered dishes—there isn’t much left out of Frank Davis Cooks Cajun, Creole, and Crescent City. Frank Davis serves up all new seafood recipes plus variations on the Cajun Creole canon of cooking. What makes each recipe so unique is the precise, stand-by-your-side, humorous writing style Davis adds to each page. Davis pulls out some of his best homespun creations for this book, like N’Awlins Pickled Onions, Old New Orleans Vanilla Ice Cream, Spicy N’Awlins Fried Ribs, and Cajun Deep-Fried Breast of Turkey. From these names, one might assume that this book's recipes are high in calories and unhealthy, but they aren’t at all, and that’s what sets this cookbook apart from the rest. Davis adds a wealth of nutritional information and serving tips that make it possible to cook and eat the hearty local cuisine without taking on any weight. “A real indispensable New Orleans cooking companion, built on a foundation of knowledge, wit, and native know-how. Naturally a four-beaner!” —Randy Buck, executive chef, New Orleans Fairmont Hotel
