By Teresa Giudice

REAL HOUSEWIVES OF NEW JERSEY STAR’s NEW COOKBOOK

Teresa Giudice author of SKINNY ITALIAN (Hyperion; May 10, 2010; Trade Paperback Original; $19.99)

A healthy cookbook from Teresa Giudice of Bravo’s The Real Housewives of New Jersey. Teresa Giudice of Bravo’s The Real Housewives of New Jersey has four children under the age of nine, so she’s often asked the secret to her fabulous figure.  Her cookbook, SKINNY ITALIAN, reveals the answer: the surprisingly healthy Old World Italian recipes she learned from her mother.  Packed with delicious recipes, tips on choosing and storing fresh ingredients, and several helpings of juicy gossip, SKINNY ITALIAN shows home cooks how simple it is to fit into skinny jeans without a diet.  Recipes include Lazy Bellinis, Fennel Salad, Teresa’s Favorite Tagliatelle, and Strawberries & Sambuca.  Her tell-it-like-it-is style (“Never eat food that’s also a stripper’s name: Cookie, Candy, Cupcake”) gives an extra behind-the-scenes look at life in the Giudice household.
