The Sexy Forever Recipe Bible: A Cookbook

I purchased this book over 2 months ago after reading sexy forever, I have been on many diets before paying out alot of money. This so far has worked for me. giving up foods is not the answer for me. Learning to eat correctly is. My cravings are gone! the food is great and easy to prepare. I do not like frozen, box or bag food. I do like to cook. the recipees donot take long to make and they taste good. They leave you satisfied. I have lost 20pds with out even trying since xmas 2011. this book is a keeper!

I'm overwhelmed with new books and sources of information right now so cannot give a really detailed review, but Suzanne Somers is a trailblazer. If you know her as the ditzy blond in the old tv series Three's Company, followed by her stint as a purveyor of the Thigh Master you might be surprised at that. But when you follow her career further and realize she has been at the forefront, beyond an early adapter, of so much cutting edge wellness stuff you have to begin to look to her, as I have, as a serious source of information and honest advice. When you learn, as I did recently, that she handled her post-cancer reconstruction with some kind of stem cell procedure that regrew her breast tissue you really have to admire her willingness to trust her own instincts and research in leading the way. But this is a cookbook, and one I initially purchased because it is the source of her Summer Tomato Soup recipe - a vegetarian, highly sophisticated, anyone can do in 15 minutes, barely cooked hot soup with a fresh basil pistou(pesto)that is fancy enough to use for entertainment but also something you can make again and again, which requires no fancy prep (any kind of sloppy chopping will do) and will carry you through a chunk of the week. She also pairs this recipe with a parmesan cracker which is made by just melting circles of grated parmesan or romano (you can't use the cheap supermarket cheese powder here!) in circles on foil in the oven. You could take that out of the oven, roll it around a pencil into a "cheese finger", put it on top of the pesto you top the soup off with (a two minute food processor task) and deserve the high praise you receive! It hits on all points - rich in the right super nutrients, no bad stuff, high flavor, sophisticated conception, speed and ease of prep, and so I look forward to that kind of thinking throughout the book. This cookbook pairs with her latest book, Sexy Forever, and the diet/health website that she participates in as well. It may not be the most attractive title but she's trying to make the point that you can stay vital and feel young for longer than you may think. Just take a look at her. That didn't happen by accident! She's 62, 63? Anyway, I recommend anything she puts her name on, and that is rare praise from me.

I consider myself as competent a chef as Ms. Somers, but I'm not a recipe user.I make an exception with this book, because it helps to lose all the weight I want to while eating (her) fantastic food. Before Suzanne Somers, I never thought of making zuchini noodles or cauliflower mashed potatoes or egg crepe linguini. This book makes it possible to easily find her recipes, and it is also possible to find corollary recipes, which might have been only in different books. About 400 recipes have been compiled from all her books and these are among the best. The only improvement I can think of is making the pages out of hard plastic, to keep the pages clean in the kitchen !

Love this cookbook and all of Suzanne's products! The recipes are easy to follow. Ingredients are not exotic and can be found in most grocery stores. I'm buying my mom a copy for her birthday. Great cookbook!!!

The food has been fabulous so far. Most of it even easy to make despite its exotic title... like the Moroccan Chicken recipe. I kid people that dinner took a month to make. That's because she gives instructions for making your own preserved lemon rinds which are used in the Moroccan Chicken recipe. Don't let that scare you. The rinds were extremely easy to do. 3 ingredients , one of them being water and then let it set for 30 days. Once that's done on you go with the chicken and its a cinch too. Pages are sturdy. Cover durable despite being a paperback. You can wipe it of with slightly damp rag in other words should anything you're preparing happen to land on the cover. So what's my but? Its got a few photos. And of the few its got a few are of some of the recipes. Most of the few photos are of Suzanne. Suzanne in a strawberry patch. Suzanne feeding chickens. Suzanne picking fruit from a tree. Suzanne having breakfast in bed with hubby. Suzanne visiting the Malibu Olive Company. 3 photos of Suzanne hanging out with some local fisherman and live crabs. Suzanne enjoying a drink and bonding with a horse and harvesting zucchini from a garden and...so on..... It's a recipe bible. Not a Suzanne Somers bible. I don't mind photos of Suzanne. But, I really think a recipe bible should have included more pictures of the recipes than the author or at least equal shots of both. I love to see pictures of what I'm going to make. But its not necessary. But since this book did have some photos included, I'm just saying more of the food would have been better.

Well she is super woman in regards to health in my opinion, so ya cannot go wrong. I think some of the recipes were a tad outdated, and I would think that she would be the first to agree, but it is still a good cookbook. I got this used so it was no big expense.

Package was received promptly and very nicely wrapped. The book is a compilation of all the wonderful recipes that Suzanne has shared with us over the years. Her way of cooking and using fresh and organic ingredients is so beneficial to us all. Rest in peace, Suzanne.

This is one of her best books in her series condensed she let you know that some of the recipes are either vegan dairy free or gluten free which is very important to me excellent reference book for recipes and information

This was a gift for a friend. She received it quickly and seemed pleased. It was a surprise gift. I hope she uses it in good health.

I have always been a fan of Suzanne Somers Cooking and I was so excited to see that she had put all of her amazing and super tasty recipes in 1 cookbook. Perhaps there aren't enough pictures of the recipes as stated in another review, but trust me, these recipes don't let you down on flavour whether there is a picture or not! I have at least 5 of her books and now I can pass them on for others to enjoy as I have. If I had to pick only one cookbook to have this would be the one for me, and I have no shortages of cookbooks in my home to choose from! I also cook for a Dinner Club I am in, and they have had the good fortune of tasting her delectable recipes. If you are out to impress dinner guests, or just your family, this is the book for you!

This is a great collection of recipes , easy to complex , quick to time consuming . Everything is made with fresh ingredients . Instructions are easy to follow . Portions are a good size with recipes feeding 4 to 6 people . These are recipes designed to help lose weight and if the program is followed , they really work - hard to beleive when one is cooking with butter and cream . I have lost 10 pounds in 30 days using the recipes .

Great item - shipped fast

This version seems to include a lot of the best recipes from a number of Susanne's books. If you are going to choose only one, this might be the book for you. The only problem is deciding which recipe to try next. There are so many viable choices.
