Pinch of Nom recipe book

Has anyone used the recipe book - if so, what did you think?

I'm particularly interested to find out what sort of calorie amounts the dinners are - I'm looking for recipes that are below 400 calories each, and ideally below 300

I bought it at the end of last week, I have not tried any of the recipes yet but DH made a Philly cheesesteak for lunch yesterday.

I like the look of it though, nearly every recipe has a picture which is an important criteria for me when I pick a cookery book. The majority of recipes are below 400 calories I would say and plenty below 300. I have just flicked through the whole book page by page and only saw three recipes that were over 500 claories.

I saw it but most of the recipes are online so I didnt bother. The only thing that annoys me about the website is the product plugging and advertising

I’ve just bought it. I think it says they have included a certain percent that aren’t on the website.

I’m jealous of my DIL as she bought it at Costco the other day, I want one after flicking through hers. My OH loves their Pepsi max chicken, mine takes ages as I let it cook for about 30 mins and keep adding Pepsi max.

One of my favourites is the enchilada lasagne (on the website)
