good

This is a good book for people watching calories or diabetics watching carbs. There are nutrition facts for each recipe and helpful hints throughout the book.

Awsome cookbook for the whole family

I honestly LOVE this cookbook. It has a lot of pictures of the finished dishes, all of which are easy to fix and don't require weird ingredients. It's a great cookbook to set the kids at the table with and say "hey, YOU guys pick the meals this week". It's THAT good, and you will not be disappointed. The crockpot section is very good too and will be perfect for during the school year when our family's schedule gets hectic...

Excellent cookbook

This is one of my favorite cookbooks. Great family-type recipes that don't feel like 'diet food' in any way.

Best Cookbook In My Cupboard!

This cookbook has awesome recepies that fill you up! Try the Beef Tortilla Bake, the Chicken Nacho Bake, Cheeseburger Calzones and so much more! Everything I have made from this cookbook has been a winner at my house. My boyfriend is a very picky eater, I am too, and we love these meals! They are so satisfying, low calorie and low in fat. And for the price, it should be a no-brainer. You need this cookbook!
