Many great recipes
This book is high quality with beautiful photos and a great range of recipes
I'm back for another review of my favorite books ever...cookbooks! I read cookbooks like most people read murder mysteries :) I'm also a certified functional nutrition counselor so I'm always looking for wonderful recipes that feed the soul AND feed the body well. I don't love that this book is called "Skinnytaste" because I think "skinny" isn't a healthy goal but I do know what they are going for so I'll look past that. The receipes have all of the basic nutritional information at the bottom of the page which I LOVE! There are wonderful, full color pictures for each recipe, something I think is a must have in any great cookbook. My biggest hang up with this book is that when they say "7 ingredients" that's NOT the truth! They count processed, already made items (that have many ingredients in them) as 1 ingredient. Some examples: White Pizza and Spinach- pizza dough is an ingredient, Instant Pot "Baked" Ziti with Spinach- "good quality marinara sauce" is an ingredient and lastly in Stracciatell Tortellini Soup- tortellini is an ingredient. As always, to be fair to the author I made 2 recipes, I made the Ham and Swiss Omelet Wrap as well as the High-Protein Waffles. I really liked both recipes!! The omelet wrap was easy to make, easy to take in the car, quick to prepare and delish!! The high-protein waffles were fluffy, thanks to the egg whites, my kids loved them with peanut butter and bananas on top. I'll definitely make more of these recipes in the future.
I've had the book for a few weeks and made about 10 recipes from it. Every single recipe is easy to make, ingredients are simple and easy to find at the super market, they're healthy and they taste really great. My boyfriend has also loved everything, with the biggest hits being the turkey meatballs (which I served with spaghetti and red sauce) and the gnocchi with chicken and cream sauce. I love that I can just flip through this book, pick out 3 or four recipes, make a short & simple grocery list, and go to the store. It makes planning and shopping really easy and keeps my grocery list to a manageable level in these inflationary times. Definitely recommend this book, it's becoming a new staple at my house.
The recipes are very good and simple to put together
I like that there are fewer ingredients than there are in many Skinnytaste recipes that are available on the website. The book is beautifully presented with photographs of each dish. The ingredients are shown in small photos on the side of the recipe text page, which is extremely helpful, however, not all ingredients are pictured (like salt, pepper, water) in many cases, so don't just go by the picture. Read the instructions while gathering ingredients to make sure you have all of them ready. All of the recipes I've tried so far are fantastic. I highly recommend this book. I bought one for myself and gifted two others.
I have all of Gina’s cookbooks but this is the one I keep pulling out when planning weeknight meals. All the dishes are easy to make and require very few ingredients which help with having dinner on the table usually in about 30 minutes. Definitely a great purchase if you’re looking for easy and healthy dinners during a busy week!
This cookbook came highly recommended because it has pictures and good recipes that are simple to make. I eat healthy and cook every day so I am always looking for new options.
