WW Cookbooks Question

    I'm not sure if all WW meetings are the same in each state, but our chapter is hosting a special where you buy one WW cookbook and get another one free. So, I bought the Hit The Spot and Slow Cook It books at my meeting today, and I was wondering if anyone else here has those, and what recipes you recommend from them.

    I'd love to see recommendations from not only those two books, but all WW cookbooks. (I have several). I love getting new menu ideas for me and my family.

    Thanks!

    The meeting I go to is having a 50% off all cookbooks special too. I just bought the Weight Watchers Eat! Move! Play! : A Parent's Guide for Raising Healthy, Happy Kids and Momentum™ Healthy & Happy Celebrations cookbooks. I haven't had a chance to try any of the recipes yet, but they looked good. Even the kid's one, and I don't even have kids. It has a few fun kid recipes but mostly quick and yummy things everyone can enjoy. The only drawback is that it doesn't list the point values. My grandmother has a TON of WW cookbooks though. Some really old ones that probably aren't around too. I should really go through them one of these days. I'll have to post again when I try some of them.

    The slow cooker book sounds really great. Do you have a favorite recipe from it?

    I haven't had the chance to look through it yet, but when I do, I'll post some here.

    I'm not really a great cook, but I tried the Sweet Chili-Glazed Chicken & Quinoa Pilaf from the Healthy Cooking Basics, and my boyfriend who isn't on WW thought it was the greatest thing ever. It was soooo tasty!

    That's a great promotion!
    No such luck here, the books are $10.00 and I have all three:
    Momentum, Healthy Cooking Basics and Healthy and Happy Celebrations.

    Stephanie what is the hit the spot cookbook about? Snacks?
    I wish my WW had it...
