Great cookbook - even if you're not on the diet
I've lost 24lbs in 5 weeks so far on the Sonoma Diet and my palate hasn't been bored yet! The recipes in this cookbook are well written, easy to follow, contain ingredients easy to find in most grocery stores, and produce great results. Although most of the recipes feature cilantro, parsley, marjoram, rosemary or cumin as flavor enhancers, you'll find a variety of flavors in this book. In fact, no two recipes taste alike - which is more than I can say for many other "diet" cookbooks I've tried.
My family has particularly enjoyed the soup recipes in this book, our favorites being the spicy black bean chili and tomato with bread soup. Also good are the flavorful, hearty salads. This book features a lot more fish recipes than the original Sonoma Diet book does, but it is still pretty light on Vegetarian items. Some of the vegetarian items just did not turn out at all (barley risotto, for example, never cooked all the way despite adding more than 10 minutes to the suggested cooking time). However, the great recipes far outshine the not-so-great.
Bottom line: Well worth the money, nice variety of flavors, sound nutritional advice. A little light on vegetarian dishes, but overall a great cookbook.

Another Great Cookbook
I just received this book and can't wait to try the recipes in it. I have the Sonoma Diet Book and my husband and I both LOVE the recipes. We don't necessarily use it to lose weight, but to make good healthy meals that we both can enjoy.

The Sonoma Diet Cookbook
I have been a cook and pastry chef for 20 years. This is the best cookbook I have ever used. I use it daily and have recommended it to several of my friends. The food is amazing. Taste and flavor just explode from each wave. Easy to find ingredients and easy to prepare recipes. After 7 weeks, I have lost 22 pounds and am still enjoying every meal I prepare from the book.

FANTASTIC! FANTASTIC! FANTASTIC!
So many yummy, healthy recipes that you don't even miss the butter or gravy! I refer to this cookbook constantly, and the whole family never even realizes that they are eating so healthy. I'm waiting for the author to come out with part 2.
