I have several weight watchers cookbooks and I'd have to say that this one is the best so far. The recipes are indeed quick and do produce yummy results. Everything has tasted great. I don't like spending a lot of time or effort in making daily meals. However, I know as a life time member of weight watchers (and as a person interested in eating healthy food) how it's important to eat good meals at home. Plus in this economy, you can save much money by making it yourself instead of doing takeout.The one thing that I don't do is quick cooking rice because it tastes wierd to me. I remedy that problem by starting the rice first thing in my wonderful rice cooker. It's just as easy that way.This cookbook has already paid for itself several times over in just the month or so that I have had it. It has my highest recommendation.
