It’s been a while since I’ve read a cookbook cover to cover. But that all changes today.

I’ve patiently been waiting for Cravings by Chrissy Teigen for MONTHS. Literally, months. And there’s not one ounce of sarcasm in that statement. Ever since I found out she was doing a cookbook I’ve been excited and today’s the big day!

You might be thinking, what’s a super gorgeous model doing writing a cookbook, does she even eat? Well, guess what, news flash… she does! And I’m pretty sure we have the same taste in food! This culinary-school-trained cook is KILLING it in the kitchen and she bring with it some sarcasm, sass, and a whole lot of humor!

The book showed up on my doorstep last week and I kid you not when I tell you that I dropped everything I was doing and read it cover the cover. The recipes are all incredible, the photos make me want to eat everything in sight and the stories that come with each headnote and the intro make me laugh just as much as her tweets and instagrams. If you don’t follow her on either platform, you’re MISSING OUT!

I’m cooking my way through the book this week on snapchat! Last night was the Chinese Chicken Salad and it was ah-mazing! Tonight I’m making the cheesy guacamole because hello, it’s TACO TUESDAY and I wrote a damn book on avocados. It’s my job to try her guac recipe! Last week I made Pepper’s Spicy Clams with Pasta and the Pounded Thai Papaya Salad… everything is incredible. Tomorrow I’m almost 100% certain the tomato soup is happening as word on the street is that it’s life changing and she’s the self proclaimed soup master so I’m basically doing myself a disservice if I don’t make it immediately.

It made up of 10 chapters including Breakfast All Day, Soupmaster, Salads (For When You Need Them), Noodles and Carbs, Thai Mom, Party Time, Sh*t on Toast, Vegetable Things, Things That Intimidate People but Shouldn’t, and Supper. There’s no room for dessert here because as Chrissy would tell you, she’d rather order another pasta! I mean, we’re kinda spirit animals! Unless of course a slutty brownie is on the menu, then I’m ordering that AND another pasta.

Grab a copy of it while it’s still available – Cravings by Chrissy Teigen – I’m 100% certain it’s going to sell out ASAP! Or take your chances and enter to win a copy here! I’m giving away 5 copies to 5 lucky winners (must live in the US) and winners will be picked in 1 week! To enter, just leave a comment below letting me know if you’d rather order a dessert or another savory main course in place of dessert! Ready go…

And major congrats to Chrissy! It’s perfection.

  4. Hi Gaby-

    I am equally as excited about this cookbook!

    I have to say, I am a dessert girl and love anything sweet. I would definitely order a dessert– something chocolate and extremely indulgent. 🙂

  6. Definitely another main course!! In college, I would always go back for more spring rolls when my friends were all going for the soft serve 🙂

  15. Another savory main course! Especially if it your thyme, garlic and Brie dip :)) I look and feel like the coolest everytime I bring that over for girls night or Netflix and Chill night with the guy 🙂 Love following your snaps, too! you encouraged me to get back on the kombucha train and make my own this time around.

    Would love to have the new Cravings cookbook in my collection!

    Xoxo, Megs

  43. Oh man, I’m a savory kind of lady! I’d rather order the second savory dish in place of dessert (like the appetizer I’ve been eyeing)!
