Customer Reviews
Great recipes - but time consuming
If I were to commit the cardinal sin of judging the book by its cover I would say it's a funky book that promises a great deal. Sadly, despite the fact that the few recipes I did make from here were delicious the majority of the recipes are too time-consuming for me and the indredients list on most of them are enough to put me off. For weekend cooking it's an inspiration, but it is not practical to aspire to pick a recipe from this book on weeknights when you work full time, therefore in my opinion the book cannot really be used to help you lose weight. Unless of course you diet only on weekends... now there's a thought!
First Cookery Book Purchase
I've recently got back into the kitchen and decided to purchase this book after reading the good reviews and i'm happy that i did. Before the recipes, the girls guide us through the "big offenders" in food and introduce us to calorie counting. I'm now much more aware of looking at food packaging before buying them to see their calorie contents and i'm keeping an eye on what i eat now, which i feel healthier and better for.
The recipes are easy to follow and simple to do and it just shows that you don't have to eat carrot sticks and discard desserts altogether - if you follow their advice, you can drop a dress side in a delicious way!
I bought this book very nievely, looked at it once the ingredients are to flouncy!
The ingredience for the recipies are things that you wouldnt normally find in your cupboard so its too much hassle than its worth.
