Is it worth getting? Is there a specific print date that is good (like the book)? Thanks for any recommendations regarding this book.

"Do not wait for strength before setting out, for immobility will weaken you further. Do not wait to see clearly before starting; one has to walk toward the light. When you take the first step and accomplish that tiny little act, the necessity of which may be apparent only to you, you will be astonished to feel that the effort, rather than exhausting your strength, has doubled it—and that you already see more clearly what you have to do next." –Philippe Vernier -
Re: Anyone have "Dr. Atkins's Quick & Easy New Diet Cookbook"?
Here's a real cheap one. Can't waste too much by trying (although I don't have one so can't vouch for it):

Re: Anyone have "Dr. Atkins's Quick & Easy New Diet Cookbook"?
I have that one in a box somewhere...can't recall how good it is or not. I, personally, like Dana Carpenders 500 Low Carb Recipes and George Stella's Livin Low Carb cookbooks. Each of them have a couple (or more) books out. George Stella's books especially don't use a bunch of low carb baking products that are hard to find--you can easily find all the ingredients for his recipes at the grocery stores.~Joy

Re: Anyone have "Dr. Atkins's Quick & Easy New Diet Cookbook"?
I think I have it somewhere in my bookcase. Haven't used it much. But then again, I haven't used Dana's 500 LC Book much, after the horrid results with a couple recipes I made from it.
Wasted my money, in my opinion, when I can get such wonderful recipes on the Internet, and they have been tried by "real" people.
But, perhaps my tastes are different.Started Atkins: 21 Sep 2003

Re: Anyone have "Dr. Atkins's Quick & Easy New Diet Cookbook"?
I have that book as well, and like cmcole says, "it's somewhere.."
'Nuff said. LOL
I wouldn't buy it again, especially when there are so many recipes on the net that are incredible. Stella's book and Dana's books are worth the purchase though, IMHO!

Re: Anyone have "Dr. Atkins's Quick & Easy New Diet Cookbook"?
Ya wanna know something? After being on Atkins for 3 years, I've found that there are loads of naturally low carb recipes in regular cookbooks and magazines. Baked goods and most desserts are exceptions. But meat, eggs, and veg/fruit recipes---you're better off looking in regular cookbooks, because regular cookbooks typically won't require you to find some gum thickener that might not be absolutely necessary to the dish.
