Hi - It's from 1994, so may be out of print. The ISBN is 1-881656-04-7. I bought it about 8 years ago, brand new, but in a used book store for cheap (score!).
You could probably do an interlibrary loan request from your local library, and they'll track down a copy for you. Then you could just photocopy the recipes that look good.
Best,
Heather

Keep me posted on Mexican food cookbooks and possibilities. I used to eat it several times a week and I miss it. Last night all I wanted was bean and cheese burrito and a taco. I wanted it so bad I could taste it. I hate those cravings, it gets so hard to just say no.

Heather or anyone else that has a tried and true Spanish Rice recipe: Is there a recipe in the Healthy Mexican Cookbook for some good Spanish Rice? I'm supposed to supply it on Mother's Day for 12.

Hope this helps!

Mags: I found it, the author's name is McMahan. If I can't find it tomorrow somewhere that I can pick it up at before Saturday, I'll order one from that site. Thanks for the help!!

I love True Thai by Victor Sodsook, published by Morrow. It's a hardback, a good five years old, but definitely still in print as I see it in bookstores all the time. This is by far the very best Thai cookbook I've ever seen. It is truly authentic.
This is great you have access to a Southeast Asian market or a grocery store with a well-stocked Asian section. If you can't get the ingredients (fish sauce, fresh herbs, Thai soy sauces) the cookbook will just frustrate you.
The book is not specifically low-fat, but many of the recipes (and there are hundreds of them) are low fat anyway, or can be easily adjusted. What I love about this book is that there are very few red meat recipes at all - it's entirely chicken, seafood, and vegetarian (TONS of vegetarian recipes - whole chapters!)
I haven't made a single recipe from the book that wasn't fabulous.

Oh, you'll love it. Advice here - make the various chili pastes (red, yellow, etc.) on a separate day from when you plan to actually cook the food (most of the recipes call for one of the chili pastes). Otherwise, it's a lot of work for one meal. But, once you get the chili pastes made, they'll keep great in an airtight container in the freezer for a couple months, and you only use a few teaspoons or tablespoons per recipe. I usually keep the yellow and red on hand - haven't made the green one yet. There are so many recipes I'm still dying to make from that book!

I am a junior league cookbook fan. The recipes are definitely not all IBS safe, but many can be adapted. The really great thing about them is that recipes are submitted because someone has had good luck with them. Then many books require triple taste testing to make it in to the book. So you know you are getting good recipes. Plus, there are usually beautiful pictures of food and other things (flowers, table settings, scenery) and interesting info about the city they are from. One of my very favorites is the original Beyond Parsley, which I think is from the Kansas City Jr. League. If you like salmon and other seafood, the Seattle JL cook book is good - Simply Classic is its name. They are a visual pleasure as well as a culinary one!
