Cowritten with recipe developer and chef Sussman (Fried & True), model and TV presenter Teigen's debut cookbook includes party snacks, guilty-pleasure comfort foods, serious Thai and Italian classics, and everyday breakfasts, soups, salads, and suppers. Teigen's passion for home cooking is palpable, and she talks about such foods as tahini ("rhymes with bikini") and potatoes ("200 percent more photogenic than I am") in an all-caps and hashtag-peppered language that's all her own. More than 100 recipes such as French toast casserole with salted Frosted Flakes, Hawaiian pizza jalapeno poppers, Thai pork and rice porridge, and pineapple-grilled short ribs will appeal to a wide range of readers, particularly those who periodically crave cheese, bacon, hot sauce, and popular processed foods. VERDICT Withhold your skepticismâthis celebrity cookbook is an unconventional and laugh-out-loud funny delight, with some truly standout recipes.
