What to Expect: Eating Well When You're Expecting
What to Expect: Eating Well When You're Expecting

Review:The recipies all have a very long ingrediant list and can be pretty complicated. I work alot and was hopping for somthing to just tell me what to eat while pregnet and a halfway simple way to do it. I only made the muffin recipies, they were good and was happy with how healthy they were but took alot of time and don't keep very well. Read more

Top 100 Baby Purees

Review:The recipes were good and easy, probably no combinations I couldn't have come up with on my own, but it was nice to have quantities/ratios spelled out for me. It was also nice in my sleep-deprived state to not have to try and come up with different combinations. I would definitely recommend this book for yourself or as a unique shower gift. Read more

Duff Bakes: Think and Bake Like a Pro at Home

Review:This book makes me laugh at places because it was humorously-written.

BUT!
Under the Equipment section, there's a mention of the digital kitchen scale.

It would be great to have both types of weighing methods listed. Read more

Discover the Secret to Permanent Weight Loss - The F-Factor Diet

Review:The book itself was interesting and informative. But, we know that if we follow any diet to the letter, we will loose weight in the 4-6 lbs range for the two week period. What was my major disappointment was the fact that Whole Foods doesn't carry the cracker anymore nor can you find the Dannon Fit and Crave Yogurt anymore. I contacted both companies and Dannon completely discontinued the product. I guess we can add the Fibersure that she is the spokesperson for to another yogurt, but that d... Read more

Great-Tasting Meals You Can Make Ahead - Dinner's in the Freezer

Review:This cookbook has wonderful recipes that your whole family will love! They are easy to follow and taste great!
If you are looking for a more detailed book about what OAMC is all about though I would do some research elsewhere. This book has great recipes but isn't detailed with grocery lists like other books are.
They do have an awesome system of how to increase servings though and I highly recommend these recipes! Read more
