Book Reviews of Weight Watchers New Complete Cookbook
Book Review: Shame, shame Weight Watchers!
Summary: 2 Stars
The prepping directions for Weight Watchers recipes are more complicated than they need to be. Also, too many exotic indredients are used. I can't find these items in my grocery store and there is no way my kids are going to eat things like Mango Chutney. I would have liked to know how big each portion is. If I was good at knowing how much to eat, I wouldn't be overweight. Another thing that bothered me was that this book was actually a cheaply made plastic comb edition and was printed in China! Weight Watchers doesn't make enough money, they have to cut corners by printing and assembling this book in China?Book Review: It's OK.... not sure it's worth the money

I requested this cookbook as a Christmas present. I received it and wanted to immediately use it, so I sat down with it for a review of the recipes. I was VERY disappointed that there were no recipes for anything I would "normally" make. I expected there to be healthy versions of "comfort foods" and I expected points values for those things I eat most (that are still relatively healthy for you). Too bad there aren't "normal" recipes in there. Anyone want my copy? I won't be using it. I gave it 3 stars because I figure it could be useful to SOMEONE, just not me.Book Review: A good cookbook for entrees
Summary: 3 Stars
I like this cookbook and use it often, but I find that the dinners are much better than the sweets and baked goods. I've tried several of the sweet recipes and they don't work out. For instance I just made the rice pudding and I had to add much more milk to keep it from burning, had to cook it for longer than required but the rice still came out a little hard. It's a strange recipe, you cook it on the stovetop and then bake it. The entrees I've tried have all come out very good.Book Review: A very complete cookbook.
Summary: 5 Stars
If you are only going to buy one Weight Watchers cookbook, this should be the one. There are many different recipes as well as helpful tips, both about cooking and about tweaking recipes. All the recipes I have tried so far are delicious and don't taste "diet." The cookbook has mainstream staples, like food for Thanksgiving, as well as recipes with an international flavor. It's the most comprehensive Weight Watchers cookbook I have ever seen or owned.Book Review: Best damn health food cook book
Summary: 5 Stars
I joined weight watchers on Jan 2 and have lost 30 pounds. Since my husband didn't need to loose weight but I had to cook, this was the next best thing. He loves most all the meals in this book and you can not tell it's healthy. You just have to watch the portion sizes you eat. But it is wonderful. I bought one for myself and two more for my friend and brother.
The stuffed cicilian sausage pizza is to die for.
