Product Description
Devin Alexander, author of the New York Times bestseller, The Biggest Loser Cookbook, lets you have your cake and lose weight, too, with sinfully tempting — yet amazingly healthy — recipes for America’s all-time favorite foods. Chef and former L.A. caterer Devin Alexander has maintained a fifty-five-pound weight loss for over sixteen years by transforming the dishes she and millions of other Americans love best into guilt-free (yet still outrageously mouth-watering) indulgences--Rigatoni with Meat Sauce, BBQ Bacon Cheeseburgers, Eggplant Parmesan, Sinless Yet Sinful Sticky Buns, and even Dark Chocolate Layer Cake with Chocolate Buttercream Frosting.
These simple-to-prepare recipes for the kind of delectable dishes people crave but feel they can’t eat when trying to be healthy and trim, actually can be the basis of a personal weight-loss plan. They can also be a way to add “off-limit” foods back into an already successful diet. Or they can simply be part of an exciting new way to eat healthfully — and with pleasure.
In The Most Decadent Diet Ever! Devin Alexander proves that even the most decadent dishes — Chipotle Chili with Blue Cheese Crumbles, "Fried" Jumbo Shrimp, Super-Stuffed Steak Soft Tacos, Fettu-Skinny Alfredo, Godiva Brownie Sundaes, and Chocolate Chip Pancakes — can lead to weight loss, good health, and carefree enjoyment.

The Best Non-Diet Ever! July 17, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought this book because my husband is a soldier and needs to maintain a certain weight. Using the recipes in this book along with his physical fitness plan has yielded terrific results, and the best part is that no one in the house feels like they are on a diet because the food tastes wonderful. I have seen results for myself as well, and couldn't be more pleased.
Great healthy but more importantly TASTY recipes... July 13, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I've been a fan of Devin Alexander's since I discovered her (late) on Discovery's "Healthy Decadence." However, trying the recipes from the show yielded a minority of "keeper" ones. This book is different. The majority are keepers and in fact, even more would be keepers, if I ate seafood. This is her best cookbook yet. HIGHLY recommend.
The Most Decadent Diet Ever by Devin Alexander July 12, 2008 Devin Alexander's cookbooks are a life saver. My husband has lost 10 pounds so far and he loves the food. I give the books to friends as hostess gifts or other thank yous. We always receive rave reviews. They are even wonderful for people who have no idea how to cook. They have explicit directions. Fast Food Fix, Biggest Loser and The Most Decadent Diet Ever are like your children. All very different, but all have very special qualities.
My favorite cookbook! June 27, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Wow! I was skeptical when ordering this book, but it is amazing. No weird food substitutions, just real food that's prepared in such a way as to keep the flavor and get rid of unneccessary calories and fat. The first recipe I tried was the "Chocolate Not Only In Your Dreams Cake". Oh... my... gosh! It was SO delicious, and for only 3 weight watchers points! I topped it with fat free vanilla ice cream and a little hershey's syrup, and didn't feel AT ALL deprived while my family had brownie sundaes. In fact, I bet mine was better than theirs! I can't say enough about that recipe. I ordered Hungry Girl cookbook at the same time, and I'll probably return that. Too many weird chemical and tofu substitutions. If you buy this book, you won't be sorry.
Buy This Book! June 10, 2008 I was astonished that a "healthy" eating cookbook could offer so many choices that taste good and are easy to make. If you are serious about eating healthy but also enjoy unique and flavorful food, this is the book for you!
