Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great food, but not balanced
I've been using this book for awhile and the food is great and I never feel hungry! The only problem is that it doesn't provide enough fruit and veggie servings. I get maybe 2 servings of fruit and 2 of veggies per day. If I add my own then I risk going over 1,200 calories. I would love to see more fruits and veggies in the ingredients list.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - McButter
Great recipes! But a little strange- alot of the recipes use the butter seasoning: Molly McButter- I am not even sure what that stuff is made out of. The Open-faced Turkey Meatball Sandwich recipe is incredible!!! Tasted just like the greasy ground beef version! Yum. I am excited to try more-especially the breakfast menu items. GREAT BOOK!!



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Won't fly here in the heart land
I guess it is my own fault for not investigating the actual recipes in the book, but I thought there would be standard "diet" food fare utilized in a 1,200 calorie a day format. Not so much. The book DOES deliver 1,200 calorie a day recipes it's just that none of them seem appetizing or practical. I perused it and quickly relegated it to my yard sale box of books. I mean how practical is "Wild Rice-Sausage Chowder and Fresh Tomato Slices"? There are 16 ingredients listed! Someone who can whip up a 16 ingredient dish doesn't need help putting together a 1,200 calorie day. Here is one that looks inviting..."Individual fruit platters with hot popovers" Oh wait, I don't want to whip up popovers! I wanted something to help me get OUT of the kitchen and grocery store. Sort of like a do-it-yourself Jenny Craig plan. If anyone knows of such a thing, please post it for me.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Recipes!!
This book has a lot of great tasting recipes. My family and I prepared a couple of recipes so far, and it's great because it doesn't feel like you're on a diet. In addition, the great tasting food provides a great meal for others who don't know that they're getting a low calorie meal. I love the varied selection from breakfast, lunch, dinner, and dessert. The only drawback is that all the meals are prepared for a serving of four...a lot of leftovers if you're by yourself!
