 A great book of healthy recipes June 1, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Whether or not you're doing Weight Watchers, whether or not you're even on a diet, this book is an excellent addition to any cook's library. The variety of recipes within is excellent, from elaborate to simple, for both carnivores and vegetarians, all prepared using healthy ingredients and methods.
From a purely practical standpoint, this is an easy cookbook to use. The pages are durable enough to withstand a bit of splatter and splash (why yes, I am a messy cook, thanks for asking!), and they are bound separately so that the book can be opened flat on the countertop to the page you want to see, or even removed completely to be put back later.
The book is nicely organized into categories so that if you have only a general idea of what you want or what's available in the fridge, you can find recipes that fit easily. Ingredients and instructions are laid out nicely on each page, with nutrition information if you need it. For those who are doing the Weight Watchers Flex plan, the Points value per serving for each recipe is also clearly marked. Basics such as pizza dough and pie crust are included, as well as more elaborate and complete meals.
Since I've gotten this cookbook, it's become my go-to source for ideas and good food. I've tried many recipes from it so far, ranging from Chicken Hash to Spinach and Cheese Quiche, and so far I have not been disappointed. If you're trying to eat healthy, there's lots of excellent and tasty choices here. If you're just looking for some inspiration, don't let the WW logo on the cover scare you off...there's lots of good stuff in here for everyone!
Off to get ready for dinner... tonight, Vegetable Fried Rice! Can't wait!
 Great for Flex, weak for Core May 27, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I don't know why Weight Watchers doesn't have a Core-specific cookbook, but that's really disappointing. One of the reasons I'm interested in Weight Watchers in the first place is I don't know how to cook, and was hoping for good help in that department. The Core recipes are well marked and quick to find, but of the 500 recipies there are probably 200 that can be eaten on the Core plan max, if that many.
Great little cookbook for those not wanting to shell out $ for WW May 17, 2008
As someone who had a great success with Weight Watchers in the past, I didn't want to pay the weekly/monthly fee to get back on track with my eating. This was a great alternative- it's great even if you don't want to go on WW but want to carry on a healthy diet. I've only tried a few recipes, but so far they're great. Good alternative ingredients. The only downside is what other people said - they don't tell you what a portion is (but you can figure it out with most of them).
weight watchers new complete cookbook May 4, 2008
Nice cookbook with ingredients that I have on hand.Has recipes that my kids enjoy.Has all the point values for the flex plan and core.
Delicious recipes, good enough to fix for diet food haters. April 21, 2008
Great cookbook with easy, flavorful healthy recipes. Lots of good tips throughout for how to lighten up your favorite sauces and dressings. Not every single recipe is a winner though but every cookbook has a few duds.
