Reader Reviews
I bought this book hoping for quick and easy smoothie recipes with fewer carbs. Unfortunately, this book relies VERY heavily on specialty ingredients - AdvantEdge shakes, Zone Perfect protein powder, Amplify dietary supplement, KETO instant pudding mix, Carb Countdown, Old Orchard low carb juice mix - none of which can I get in my local stores. As far as I can tell from searching on the internet, the KETO and Old Orchard products have been discontinued. While the recipes sound tasty, there is not one recipe that doesn't call for at least one of these products and some recipes call for up to 4! I don't mind when a book occasionally relies on a specialty product, but not every single recipe. It also relies heavily on sugar-free syrups (such as Torani or Da Vinci) and Crystal Light drink mix in flavors I have never seen in the stores around here. All things considered, I doubt I'll make even one recipe out of this book. If I've got to buy 3 or 4 expensive and hard-to-find ingredients just to make one smoothie, forget it.If you are looking for low carb smoothies, Dana Carpender's book is much better and calls for very few specialty items.
