Good recipes but poor index! August 14, 2005 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
I enjoy the recipes, which are often different from my other low fat cookbooks, and the information is very helpful. So far, everything I've tried has been tasty. But the index at the back is very poorly done! Categories are not listed, such as "potatoes" or "beef;" the list often gives only the names of the dishes, listed by words like "crispy," "roasted," "warm" or "creamy", which is frustrating when you are looking to find a recipe for the ingredients you have. The book is not organized in the most helpful way, either, with pictures in groups, rather than next to the recipes themselves.
SIMPLY DELICIOUS IS OKAY July 28, 2005 5 out of 6 found this review helpful
SIMPLY WOULDN'T BE THE WORD I WOULD HAVE CHOSEN FOR THE TITLE OF THIS COOKBOOK. JUST GLANCING THROUGH IT, IT SEEMED OKAY. ONCE I ACTUALLY READ THE RECIPES IT SEEMED REPETICIOUS. I DEFINITELY LIKE THE TAKE-OUT TONIGHT BOOK BETTER.

Good cookbook, but I prefer more pictures of the food before I make it....especially diet food!
Mostly Untradtional Stuff You'd Never Cook February 17, 2005 12 out of 22 found this review helpful
This book contained a great deal of recipes that were just stuff that you wouldn't really cook. I found FOUR recipes I wanted out of it and I'm not a picky eater.
The test of a good cookbook... May 8, 2004 37 out of 38 found this review helpful
... is how many of the recipies turn out well the first time, and how many you would cook again. "Simply Delicious" meets both criteria. We haven't tried a recipe from this book we didn't like. Weight Watchers cookbooks are brilliant at presenting delicious and decadent recipes that won't leave you feeling deprived. For example, there's a yummy "Maple-Glazed Popcorn Snack Mix" with only 3 points (163 calories and 5 grams of fat) per serve. My husband didn't believe it was a Weight Watchers recipe, but made it anyway. Don't tell anyone, but we smuggle it into the movies! Then there's the "Cinnamon-Peach Almond Pancakes" and the "Confetti Corn Cakes", which make a great brunch with a little low-fat sour cream and smoked salmon on top. See what I mean about decadent?
