Customer Response

Excellent book for families
This is a great book. I've tried many and not only are the recipes high fiber, low sugar, and low fat but my kids (4 and 8) thought they tasted great. My husband loved the marinara sauce and the "new meatballs". I may be an experienced cook but I found the recipes very easy to put together unlike some other low fat cookbooks, and the ingredients easy to find in the grocery store. Definitely a home-rum in my view!

Not for young children!
This book is not what I expected. Most of the meals take TIME to cook, and TIME to shop for multiple ingredients, which is great if you don't have a full-time job and driver duty for after-school activities. Almost nothing can be prepped ahead of time. Most dishes have at least one expensive ingredient, or use only part of a package (what do you do with the rest?). Many dishes have seasonings or flavor combinations that a young child won't tolerate (at least mine won't!). This cookbook is better titled "The Biggest Loser Family Gourmet Cookbook."

Really Great Cookbook!
We just LOVE this cookbook! Got it yesterday, had pizza burgers and sweet potato fries for lunch... followed up with fish tacos and texas caviar (no fish eggs, I promise!) for dinner..

Cant wait to try another recipie tonight. This is just fantastic. My 14 year old son is having a great time helping to cook and the recipies make it easy to do just that. He has even said he'd like to cook one night a week - Horray!

We love that this is real food, not weird tofu and bean sprouts stuff... thanks so much biggest loser!

even my kids like the recipes
We are a family of 6 and all my kids (ages 15, 14, 12, 10 yrs) love the recipes. They have even made a few themselves. The recipes are easy to put together and taste great too!

The best Biggest Loser Cookbook
This cookbook is great, better than the original Biggest Loser Cookbook. Lots of tips to help keep costs down at the grocery store and just great recipes that taste amazing. Most of the food is easy to prepare and are of course low in calories (some more than you might expect).
In these tough times, where money is tight, this book really helps you and your family eat great on a budget.
