 Easy to follow This book is so easy to read and for someone who's shy about cooking directions are easy to follow. Recipes are great! BEST. COOKBOOK. EVER. I've seen a LOT of diet-conscious cookbooks over the past 3 decades and even if you're not on a diet, this one is a must-have. The recipes use readily-available ingredients, and they're fairly quick and very easy to follow, with lots of hints and tips. I found them to be surprisingly original, and with plenty of variety to suit most any taste and mood. There's also a lot of single-serving recipes (finally!). Each recipe also includes a nutrition breakdown, which is very helpful if you keep a food journal. There's plenty of healthy-living hints and exercise ideas sprinkled throughout the book, too. I just made the cheeseburger salad, and it was delicious! Weight Watcher member or not...this is a must for those living healthier! Although this cookbook is geared toward Weight Watcher members, it truly is a must for all of those looking to reduce the fats and calories from their food and lose weight. The recipes are made from items readily availiabe in your store. Sometimes brand names are mentioned (when HG says no other brand will do), but mostly a generic item is mentioned with the nutritional information listed so you can find an equivialent your market. I've looked at each page and some of the receipes just look too good to be low calorie. The chapters are: 1. Rise & Dine (Breakfast) 2. Chop 'til ya Drop (salads) 3. Souper Douper (Soups, many 0-1 points) 4. Let's do lunch (lots of sandwhich/lunch ideas) 5. Junk Food Junkie (things you would usually have at a fast food) 6. Manly Meals (chili's, pizzas, etc) 7. Party Time (appetizers, party ideas) 8. Chocolate 911 (need I say more) 9. Fruity Call (lots of good low-cal fruit based receipes) 10. Oven Lovin (baked goods) 11. Zappuccino (coffee based) 12. Happy Hour (cocktails) 13. Fun With...(different foods made with specific items) 14. Survival Guides (hints on how to survive your weight loss journey.) If you are on Weight Watchers (as I am) you can go the website and find the point values of the receipe. The hints, shopping lists, and swap lists and cooking hints are worth the $10 bucks. This is a keeper! Best Cookbook Ever This book is wonderful. The recipes are easy, fast and delicious. As a Weight Watcher this book is tremendously helpful. This is a book I will use over and over. Thanks for a practical cookbook! Job well done!!! | |||||||||||||
