Join Bethenny on the Skinnygirl journey and learn how to cook
fearlessly and make the food you love that fits your lifestyle
In her New York Times bestseller Naturally Thin, Bethenny Frankel shares her ten real-life rules for enjoying healthful natural foods and escaping the diet trap. Now, in The Skinnygirl Dish, Bethenny joins you in the kitchen and shows you how to stop the "cooking noise" and put an end to the anxiety about how and what to cook and eat. The Skinnygirl dishes on how anyone can:
• Get in touch with your "inner chef" and make the Skinnygirl philosophy yours • Use Bethenny's list of kitchen essentials and the core concept of using what you have at hand to enjoy creating healthy, satisfying meals • Take your basic cooking skills to the next level with practical tips for saving time, money, and sanity • Make personalized gourmet recipes from celebrity chefs, including Bobby Flay and Top Chef stars Lee Anne Wong, Hosea Rosenberg, and Ariane Duarte • Light up -- and lighten up -- holidays and special occasions with tips and recipes for throwing the perfect, stress-free party
Over sixty recipes become more than a thousand recipes with Bethenny's "Use What You Have" substitution charts. Enjoy Breakthrough Breakfasts, Delicious Dinners, Simple Snacks, To-Die-For Desserts, and Skinnygirl Cocktails, plus tips to turn almost any dish into a vegetarian delight. With the famous wit and real-world sensibility that made her a breakout star, Bethenny reveals her kitchen adventures and inspires readers to cook the Skinnygirl way with taste and style.

 Great Recipes September 6, 2010
Julie (Carolina, Puerto Rico)
When I read the first book, it left me wanting more recipes, beacuse I tried a few and they were really good. This second book did not disappoint. It has a very complete set of recipes inside the framework of the rules on the first book. It even has general kitchen guidelines found in many cookboks, but this one is very easy to read and the recipes are easy to follow. Very light and practical book. (On a side note, I got a little tired of reading about her assistant this and her assistant that. I get it! you got assistants. Most of us don't.)
I wish all cookbooks used this approach to presenting recipes! August 17, 2010
J. Freihofer
I wish all cookbooks used this approach to presenting recipes! "If you don't have 'A' on hand, use 'B-Z' (what you do have). Don't rush out to get one ingredient...no need to disregard a recipe for one lack of one ingredient." Brilliant, gentle, this cookbook works for me.
 This book is terrible August 15, 2010

Betheny Frankel wrote another book full of her ramblings. I expected to receive a book that contained more than a few recipes, but what I got was just that, random lists, and boring stories/terrible jokes. Most of the stuff she goes over is common sense and it is completely boring. I understand the concept that she was going for, but it could have been presented better. I would suggest finding a different book if you are looking for healthy recipes, advice, or pretty much anything else. Don't waste your money on this one!
 Extremely basic August 13, 2010
New Yorker living in TX (Austin, TX)
This could be useful to young adults who have just moved out on their own. It is so basic. How to make "tuna on whole wheat." There aren't many recipes. It's more of a "how to book." It was very disappointing to see no nutritional values for each recipe. Many people on a diet count calories. You are on your own for these recipes. I don't recommend this book. There are so many healthy eating recipe books on the market. This one is most likely doing well because Ms Frankel is involved.
A new perspective about cooking August 12, 2010
rxtrace (santa monica, ca)
I was one of those who always needed a recipe or otherwise I would make a mistake..but this book really changed the way I think about cooking and using what I have available. I think Bethenny has some great ideas on letting go of what has kept you from cooking in the past and moving forward with her variations for each recipe. I loved that she included what she thinks are the essentials to have on hand at all times. I have tried several of the recipes and so far they've turned out well with only a few tweaks (ex. the blueberry muffin recipe needed more milk than indicated). My only complaint is that I wish the recipes would have included nutritional information. Since I know she's a big proponent of healthy eating, I have to assume they are healthy.
