cookbook
Amy's Review:
This has some really yummy-looking recipes. I already prepare many of the Skinnytaste.com recipes and I'm sure these will be delicious. However, the best thing about the website recipes is that they have Weight Watchers point values listed for each recipe. Gina has left those out in this cookbook, presumably because Weight Watchers wouldn't give their blessing for her to publish or because Gina did not want this cookbook to focus on that. Of course, I can calculate the points based on the other nutritional facts which were provided for each recipe, but I am disappointed that they weren't provided for convenience.
Lynnie's Review:
Lots of great recipes to be found in this book, though you can find all of this on Gina Homolka's Skinnytaste website as well. The nice thing about a cookbook though is that it narrows your focus rather than sifting through seemingly endless options online.
The book is definitely a bit preachy at times but I suppose that's to be expected in a book that focuses on eating low calorie, healthy foods.
I've definitely found some new recipes to try in the coming weeks- what more can you want from a cookbook?
