Snack Time: Lite and Tasty Snack Recipes (a Scrumptious Low-Calorie Recipes Cookbook)
Price: FREE
So many so called healthy snack diet books these days rely on boring old low carb ingredients or revolting chemically enhanced sweeteners and other nasties. But not so Joan’s delicious snacks. Using a careful balance of good carbs and natural ingredients, she manages to deliver a whole host of hunger banishing snacks that rival and in many instances exceed their store bought equivalents – and with considerably less calories. A simple way to guilt free snacking – and the best chicken nuggets, onion rings and french fries EVER!
Of course, we call want to get the most out of our snack foods, and some snacks can be nutritional and satisfying at the same time. Other foods (often called junk foods) have little or no nutritional value…we just eat them because they taste good.
Nonetheless, lower-calorie versions of even junk foods exist. Making food at home can decrease the calorie count or fat content significantly, eliminate a lot of unnecessary additives and preservatives, and enhance the flavor and portion size.
In this cookbook, every effort has been made to find snack foods that are filling but have fewer calories and/or less fat than their commercial versions. You may even enjoy these more than ones you buy in the store!
Important note: this is not a cookbook with zero calorie (or near-zero calorie) snacks. Those looking for such snacks may be better off buying 100-calorie packs of snack foods from the store. The very nature of these snack foods and their ingredients mean that the calorie count will never be zero, or even close to it.
Also, these recipes are not necessarily low-carb. Some have higher carbs because they include sugars, but in a lot of cases they have higher carbs due to ingredients such as milk, yogurt, or fruit, which are GOOD, healthy carbs.

Socialize to Monetize is different. This is a time intensive book. If you want to know what is happening right now, in regards to using social media for marketing and monetizing your online efforts, get this book. Do it now and dont waste time.
Social media is a constantly changing creature. Things change in an instant. Platforms come and go. Attention spans are getting shorter and shorter. Being successful with social is about knowing what is effective now and acting on it, and the author does an excellent job of focusing on these key action points. I like the fact that she doesn’t waste time with high level theory or waxing poetic on social media group hugs that most social books focus on. Just facts, metrics, stats, bullet points and actionable info.
Gabriela Taylor, a global online marketing strategist and recognized expert in social networking, explains in Socialize to Monetize the different options, including Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Google+, LinkedIn, Flickr, Instagram, and StumbleUpon, and offers strategies and tips on how to engage across multiple platforms and successfully manage your social media activity.
“What I really like about this book is that you can review the different social media platforms, decide which one to start with and then follow the very clear and detailed instructions in order to create a business presence using the platform you picked,” says reviewer Jennie Zahn. “If you’re a business owner, social media can really help you to connect with more people and make more money. This book will show you how to do that.”
“This gave me a good perspective on social media and allowed me to focus on the platforms that will work for my business,” says reviewer Emily Jane Trent. “The tips given were helpful. I’m glad I bought the book.”
