Skinny Italian by: Teresa Giudice

The title made me actually buy the book. I love Carbs and Italian Food is Carbs. I do not have a television so when the author said she was on the Housewives of New Jersey I did not know what she was talking about. So you can say I did not pick up the book, because of that. It was a cute book. I actually learned some things from the book. She explains real Italian Food, and American version of Italian Food. Like Olive Oil,Butter,Sauteed,Pasta in part of dish,Vegetables,Fresh Italian Cheese,Vegetable Bases Sauces,Sugar in Desert only,Clear Salad Dressing, and Thin Crispy Bread. I loved the book after reading this. The author also talks about sitting at a table not eating on the go. Making your own sauce and the recipe is on my next item to cook list. This book is loaded with authentic Italian Cooking and I am actually going to keep this one on my go to shelf when I have a craving for Italian the healthy and real way. I thought the book was cute, but it is also loaded with real ingredients and real good recipes. I did like a tip from the author she said " don't look at fashion magazines, create your own style and wear what you like". I this book is worth the read and experimenting with Italian Cuisine. "mangia".
