From Mama's Table to Mine by Bobby Deen

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

From beloved food personality Bobby Deen, son of Paula Deen, comes an irresistible new cookbook featuring 120 recipes of Southern comfort-food classics--all under 350 calories and jam-packed with flavor.

Raised on his mother's fried chicken and hoecakes, Bobby Deen ultimately found himself, as a young man, twenty-five pounds overweight. Unwilling to sacrifice any of his favorite foods, Bobby started tweaking the recipes he grew up on, replacing sour cream with nonfat yogurt, using lower-calorie versions of mayonnaise, cream cheese, and other high-calorie items. Even Paula herself sometimes couldn't tell the difference between the lo-cal versions and her originals--since the flavor remained top-notch.

Here you'll find a soup-to-nuts collection of many of the great dishes and flavors you've come to enjoy and expect from the Deens, but with a lot fewer calories. Every recipe has been reviewed and approved by a certified nutritionist. Yes, you can have your Gooey Less Butter Cake and eat it too . . . along with such selections as

It's a Party Guacamole - Easy Ginger-Glazed Spare Ribs - Yes You Can Mac and Cheese - Cheeseburger Casserole - Old-Fashioned Meatloaf - Crispy Oven-Fried Chicken - Roasted Pork Tenderloin with Apples - Buttermilk Mashed Potatoes - Bittersweet Chocolate Cheesecake - Strawberry Streusel Cake

In addition to all these mouthwatering recipes and 65 full-color photos, you will find before/after fat and calorie counts (so you know just how many calories you're saving)--plus a week's worth of 1,500 calorie/day menus, celebration menus, healthy prep tips, weight-loss shortcuts, ideas for stocking a healthy pantry/fridge, and a section on easy high-fat/low-fat ingredient swaps.
