Recipes use ingredients like grated lime, lemons, sesame oil, peppers, light sour cream, chili powder, feta cheese, kalamata olives, dijon mustard, shiitake mushrooms, red wine and onions. Prep time and cooking times are included. There is a seven-day menu planner with points listed and cooking charts with metric equivalents inside the back cover. I think this is a wonderful cookbook for today's low fat cooking with fresh, flavorful ingredients.

If you are looking for a book soley to help you lose weight, I am sure that this book would be helpful. However, if you are looking for food that tastes good, this is not the book for you. All of the recipes I have tried from this book are bland, boring, and very "diet" tasting. While the pictures make the food look inviting, the actual results are abismal. I would not serve this food to my family; they wouldn't eat it. I have several healthy cookbooks which have wonderfully delicious recipes, so I do not think that healthy food needs to taste this bad.

I love the Weight Watchers series of cookbooks. This one didn't disappoint! Chocked full of delicious tasty recipes to allow eating better to not become boring.
