lausol 's review for:
Half the Sugar, All the Love: 100 Easy, Low-Sugar Recipes for Every Meal of the Day
by Anisha Patel, Jennifer Tyler Lee
I received an arc of this book through Netgalley in exchange of an honest opinion. I'd like to thank the author, publisher and the page for that opportunity.
I really liked this book, I think that it's a good place to start if you're interested in reducing added sugar to your meals and beverages. I really liked how it explained the different kind of options you can use as an alternative to sugar. For example, when they talked about using carrots instead of sugar, or ripe bananas, or nuts or more sweet spices like cinnamon or nutmeg. I have my eye on some recipes, like the blueberry scones, the pecan pie bar, and the newtella, and the ranch dressing.
I also liked that besides informing the amount of sugar their recipes have (or in some cases, don't have at all) it also had the calories, protein, lipids, sodium and so on. I asked for this book because my mother is diabetic and also because I want to have a healthier diet and I love baking, so I was really interested in finding recipes that would be good for both of us instead of feeding her something that'd be a lot of sugar. Her birthday is at the beginning of february, so I'm sure I'll make some of this recipes by then :)
