Summary: Yummy - and easy!
Review: This is a great cookbook! All the recipes we have tried have been delicious. They are also slightly unusual - none of the standard, boring "diet" dishes which discourage people from the very idea of "going on a diet". (Not that you'll feel as though you're dieting when you try these dishes.) As the title implies, the recipes in "Make it in Minutes" can also be whipped up very quickly. The menu suggestions are also helpful. Highly recommended!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: great book!
Review: this is a great weight watchers cookbook using POINTS. i have been a weight watcher for many years and this book makes it easy. i love the dinner suggestions they give (although they don't give recipes for the suggestions). if you are into breakfasts and lunches (which i am not) there are considerable recommendations here as well. my husband loves what comes out of this cookbook.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Superb for busy cooks!
Review: This is just the greatest cookbook I have ever used. I am super busy -- fulltime job, mom, volunteer work, etc., etc. I love to cook and I love good food and I love the WW Points program. This book was made for me -- the organization is outstanding. Everything is grouped by time to prepare (15, 20, or 30 minutes), then within each time grouping, the recipes are further grouped by meal (breakfast, lunch, dinner).
Every recipe that we have tried has been outstanding and -- with only one exception -- very easy to do! We take the book with us in the car in the morning when we commute to school & work and choose our recipe for dinner that night - great fun! Even if you're not on WW, you'll love these recipes -- superb food that's healthy, delicious, and fast!

Summary: Easy, quick and delicious
Review: This is one of the best cookbooks I own. Each recipe has Weight Watchers points per serving. Takes the guess work out of eating and meal planning. I've tried many of the recipes and every one of them was delicious! Even my non WW family loved the food. I'd recommend this book to anyone.

Summary: Make It in Minutes: Easy Recipes in 15,20,and 30 Minutes
Review: This is the first Weight Watchers cookbook in which I've been disappointed. The first recipe we made had several inaccuracies including, The fat count, the calorie count, the point count. In addition the recipe was too dry and the product if made according to directions, and we did that, was not edible. I think that for the first time Weight Watchers trusted someone else with the responsibility for accuracy in one of their books and their trust was misplaced. I was further disappointed when I discussed the problem with the leaders where I bought the book and they were totally unconcerned and held Weight Watchers blameless in the book's errors. I expected the organization to accept responsibility for publications which are published in their name and sold in their establishments.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: a little too gourmet for me
Review: True to its title, this Weight Watchers cookbooks has easy recipes for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I was happy about the inclusion of multiple meals. I also liked the listing of point values.

My only problem with the book were the fancy foods. I'm not an amazing cook. When I hear "make it in minutes", I'm hoping for something like my Betty Crocker "Easy" recipes, where I can use pre-bought ingredients and throw it together. I also want to see familiar recipes. There are a lot of different and unique recipes here, and I'm sure that most people would enjoy them. However, I was looking for a basic cookbook that would allow me to make simple meals with ingredients I am familiar with. I'm sure this book will be great for experimenting and trying new foods, only that's not what I expected.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Who eats this stuff?
Review: Very disappointed in this cookbook. I was looking for some simple meal solutions that were healthy for my family but we're just not a "chutney" or "ragout" kind of group.

Hope I can unload this on someone.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Weight Watchers Does it Again!
Review: Weight Watchers never disappoints me. They have packed together a wonderful cookbook filled with great recipes. This book is colorful and has many pictures so you know what you are getting. I love this book as sometimes I get a little tired with my current menu of WW recipes. The recipes I tried were very tasty and quick and easy to make.
