It's just in time for dieters who've grown bored (or impatient) with The South Beach Diet Cookbook and offers easy recipes that help dieters stay on track. The recipes span all courses, including desserts. Most impressive are the entrées and salads, particularly in their ability to riff on familiar dishes: witness Spaghetti with White Clam Sauce, Chicken and Avocado Salad, and South Beach Classic Burger. Even more inventive fare, such as Thai Shrimp Soup with Lime and Cilantro, is still homey. Adding to the book's unthreatening feel is its idiosyncrasies. It favors certain spices (cilantro, black pepper), vegetables (asparagus, zucchini) and meats and fish (chicken and shrimp). The ingredient glossary is surprisingly enticing, and the introductory material explains modern eating habits and makes the South Beach Diet highly sensible. Photos.

Chickpea flour--a nonwheat, gluten-free flour made from ground dried chickpeas--creates filling protein- , and iron-rich crepes that are just as tasty as they are nutritious.

Cover with plastic wrap, vent, and cook at full power for 5 to 7 minutes. Stir, replace plastic wrap, and cook for an additional 5 to 7 minutes, until liquid is mostly absorbed. Sprinkle with nuts and serve.STOVETOP INSTRUCTIONS: Combine water and oats in a medium saucepan; soak overnight. Add apricots, syrup, and salt and bring to a boil over medium heat.
