Product Description:

The best-selling Abs Diet series continues with the perfect cookbook for anyone who wants to eat sensibly to get a flat, sculpted set of abdominals —but doesn’t have a lot of time to cook

Tens of thousands of Americans have changed their bodies—and their lives—with the help of The Abs Diet, the New York Times bestseller from David Zinczenko, editor-in-chief of Men’s Health® magazine. A key factor in the diet’s success is the meal plan, with its healthy, great-tasting, easy recipes featuring the Abs Diet 12 Powerfoods. Now, to meet the demands of today’s time-strapped society, Zinczenko and coauthor Ted Spiker present The Abs Diet 6-Minute Meals for 6-Pack Abs to help readers make the right food choices—in less time than it takes to pick up a meal at a drive-thru.

The Abs Diet 6-Minute Meals for 6-Pack Abs features:

• 101 6-minute recipes: fast and easy recipes like Barbecue Chicken Pizza, Smokehouse Salad, Summer Vegetable Couscous, and more

• the 12 Abs Diet Powerfoods, plus what makes them nutritional powerhouses and how they increase lean muscle mass and discourage storing fat

• shopping lists, appliance recommendations, and more

• a 7-day meal plan (for those who prefer not to mix-and-match)

• a bonus chapter with 60-minute Sunday creations and 15-minute meals when you have more time

This user-friendly cookbook is the perfect resource for followers of The Abs Diet as well as anyone who wants to change their body to improve their health, their looks, or their athletic performance.

5 stars Abs Diet 6Pack 6Minute meals Rocks!
One of the best book for Abs Diet I have ever read! Everyone should read this book!


5 stars I've lost thirty-two pounds on this diet
These are simple recipes for simple meals. If you're following the diet, it is generally low on sugar and simple carbs, and higher on the protein than what most people probably eat, if left to their own devices. If you buy organic products as much as possible, it's a pretty healthy diet- vitamins and anti-oxidants from lots of vegetables, and protein from various sources. I've been on this diet for nine months and I've lost thirty-two pounds. My wife and daughter like the stry-fry entrees. It's the first time in my life I've ever been on a diet and it wasn't easy, but my blood pressure and cholesterol profile are excellent now. What's not to like?


3 stars Valuable for Abs dieters, but not enough substance
If you're following Zinczenko's diet, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend adding this recipe book to your arsernal. That being said, many of the recipes...well...they suck. There are some good ones, but not nearly as many as in the original Abs book. While following the Abs Diet, I did far more cooking out of the original book than this supplemental piece.

That being said, there are plenty of recipes for sandwiches (though a cold-cut isn't rocket science), smoothies, at least one decent soup recipe, but the main area it's lacking in is really good creations for the main course. If you're overweight, you likely crave the main course.


5 stars With easy, everyday recipes, dieting is delicious!
Unlike other dieting guides, the recipes in this books are actually DELICIOUS and ones that I look forward to making every day! (I've tried low-fat or low-carb recipe books in the past and have had disastrous results--truly tasteless or inedible concoctions.) These recipes are easy to follow, quick to make, and don't involve hard-to-find/obscure ingredients from the health food store. In fact, I don't feel as though I'm on a "diet" in the least!


4 stars As good as I had hoped for!
I have other Abs Diet books and this one provided exactly what I was looking for to supplement those. I was looking for more great recipes and that is what it provided. The only disappointment is that all of the Abs Diet books repeat all of the same information about how the diet works...this takes up alot of the book. Overall, though, I would recommend the book and am pleased with the purchase.
