The Secret is in the Substitutions!

Diet cookbooks should be about dropping weight, not depriving yourself. By swapping this for that, you can turn your favorite foods into low-calorie creations -- proving once and for all that you can have your chocolate molten cake, and eat it too!

In this calorie-slashing collection, Bikini Chef-to-the-stars Susan Irby offers 175 inventive recipes for switching up ingredients that keep calories to a minimum. Complete with serving-size suggestions and "Skinny Secret" shortcuts to trim calories in little ways, here you'll get expertly crafted recipes that include offerings for every meal of the day, such as:

• Flat-Belly Eggs Benedict (with turkey ham instead of deli ham) -- save 411 calories!
• Gouda Burger (with lean ground turkey and portobello mushrooms) -- save 271 calories!
• Smitten for Molten Chocolate Cake (with less cream and fewer eggs) -- save 260 calories!

Get all the flavor -- minus the guilt!
