Weight Watchers New Complete Cookbook

Summary: Forget the portion calculations....
Review: I read the reviews and heard the complaints about the portion calculations. Not a problem. Just divide what you make by serving number visually. This book is terrific. Nothing to complain about only pure enjoyment in eating the foods. Gourmet quality recipes that are fun to make...of course one has to enjoy cooking. GREAT BOOK!

Summary: Not very imaginative
Review: I found this cook book to require to much work and too many ingredients that I didn't have to make the recepies. On top of that, the simple ones didn't really seem to be that inventive. For all of the hype this book got in my Weight Watchers meeting, it was really disappointing. Another things, which others have mentioned, is that it doesn't give the serving size. Yes, on some of the dishes it is easy to divide the dish into the number of servings it says it makes, but some of the others are not so easy. If they can figure out the points my serving that why can't they list the serving size. This is especially important if you don't have the normal 4 or five people which the recepie makes food for, to dish out one serving is very difficult.

Summary: Disappointed.
Review: I love the recipes in the Weight Watchers magazine, so I thought I would love the cookbook. Wrong! There are very few pictures that show the final product--pictures often convince me to try the recipe. In fact, the whole book is bland, bland, bland. The recipes are not the type recipes I would make on a daily basis--many I would not even want to try. Come on Weight Watchers, I know you can do much better than this!

Summary: Sounds good, but isn't so easy.
Review: This book has many recipes that sound delicious; however, many of the ingredients are not things that you would normally have around the house. It is very easy to count points with these recipes, but you might want to consider the 250 Family Recipes or 500 Irresistable Recipes books instead.

Summary: Excellent for a novice cook
Review: This book made my daughter actually start cooking and getting interested in the right foods. She made some tasty (and edible) meals for us on a recent visit with her.

Summary: Great cookbook - no shortcomings!!
Review: Easy to use, great recipes. A counter statement to those that have a problem with the serving notation. Each recipe clearly states how many servings it yields. If it says 4, divide it by 4. What difference does it make if it's one cup or 12 oz. or whatever. Who remembers what the serving weight or measure was? These recipes are easy to make, very delicious, creative, diverse. Lighten up already.
