From Publishers Weekly
Imaginatively making the most of a single-focus ingredient called yogurt cheese (recipe provided), the authors offer an array of creamy desserts for low-fat diets. Yogurt cheese is prepared by draining a significant amount of liquid from regular yogurt. In one example, the authors combine yogurt cheese with crushed fresh strawberries to make a strawberry "ice cream." No one will confuse this with the richest diary products, but to those on a restricted diet, it can be a welcome treat. Other recipes among the considerable variety included here are versions of rum-raisin and chocolate-mint cheesecakes, mocha-chiffon, lemon-cheese and cranberry Bavarian pies, apricot mousse and cherry-chocolate brownie bars. Strawberry sauce, crumb crust and orange topping are examples of supporting non-yogurt items. Nutritional information accompanies each clearly written recipe. Stone is author/editor of The Chosen: Appetizers and Desserts; Melvin, a cooking instructor, is author/editor of Quick & Easy; and Crawford owns a catering company. 25,000 first printing.

From Library Journal
All of these quick and easy dietetic desserts are based on yogurt cheese, made by draining store-bought yogurt overnight. Thus, while the taste may not be to everyone's liking, a slice of Apricot Cheesecake, Banana Chiffon Pie, or Strawberry Bavarian Pie has fewer than 150 calories. Nutrition ratings accompany each recipe. For special collections. JS

Reader Reviews
This is a wonderful cookbook featuring delicious & nutritious recipes. Most recipes are easy-to-make & use common ingredients. All are low in fat with no recipe containing more than 4 grams per serving. The author starts out by explaining the miracle of yogurt cheese & how to make it. She also discusses other ingredients & how to make the recipes even healthier. Nutrition information is provided along with dietetic exchanges. Recipes include dips, spreads, appetizers, salads, dressings, snacks, chilled soups, & breads. Many varieties of cheesecake, cookies, cakes, pies, puddings, frostings, & fondues are also included. There are even recipes for many flavors of frozen yogurt that only require a blender. Some of my favorites are the crescents, soft pretzels, & no-cook cucumber soup. I also enjoyed the scrumptious oatmeal kiss cookies.
