Hungry Girl Fast & Easy: All Natural Recipes in 30 Minutes or Less

The cookbook of my dreams!
I’m not sure how, in all the cookbooks I’ve bought, used, read & reviewed, that I never came across Lisa Lillien and the Hungry Girl brand, but I’m glad to have found her now. This cookbook is absolutely everything I want and none of the nonsense that drives me crazy.1. Every single recipe starts with a color photo of the finished dish; EVERY SINGLE ONE2. The calorie count comes next - BIG BOLD NUMBERS3. Colored circles follow next with the categories: 15 minutes, 30 minutes, gluten-free, vegetarian, etc.4. Prep Time5. Cook Time6. You’ll Need (list of tools, utensils)7. Nutritional Information: calories, fat, sodium, carbs, fiber, sugars, protein8. List of ingredients9. Directions - and this is 4-6 simple, direct lines for any mortal in the kitchen10. Number of ServingsThat is It - and that’s all I need and want, other than the massive collection of recipes. They are sorted any way you want to access them in the Kindle version; it’s SO EASY:Salads & Slaws, Stir Frys & Skillets, Sheet Pan, 1 Pot, 10 Min PowerBowl, 5 Min Dressings, 3 Ingredient Protein Rollups, Speedy Cucumber Subs, 5 Minute Smoothies, Quickie Crepes, 2 Ingredient Cake MugsThe last section is invaluable and loaded with useful hacks and how-to info:Riced Cauliflower, Spiralized Zucchini, Ground Meat, Vegan Swaps, Left Overs, Time Saving Tips, Meal Prep List, Veggie Equivalents (8 oz shrooms sliced = 3-4 cups etc), SuperMarket ListMy only complaint in the entire book is that the Index is NOT interactive. That issue aside, this is now my favorite cooking companion, of the non-human variety. The recipes are simple, use easy to access ingredients that don’t cost an arm & leg. Lisa included suggestions for how to enhance them, what season might be best, or a cooking tip to make things better or easier. I’m off to make SO EASY SHAKSUKAVery highly recommended 📚New Year’s Non-Fiction #12🧐

ANOTHER excellent cookbook!
This book is simply fantastic! It's the perfect go-to cookbook for anyone who either doesn't have the time to spend all day in the kitchen or anyone who doesn't choose to spend all day in the kitchen, yet wants to eat delicious and healthy meals. Each recipe has a full colored picture of the finished dish, which is always the most important attribute to me in a cookbook. Going beyond that, the book is sectioned into no-cook recipes, recipes with 5 ingredients or less, recipes in 15 minutes or less, recipes in 30 minutes or less, vegetarian recipes, gluten-free recipes, single serve recipes, and family size recipes. And this cookbook continues on with the tradition of other Hungry Girl cookbooks that require very few ingredients (most of which are easily substitutable for another ingredient) and minimal steps to complete the meal, making these recipes very budget friendly and quick to prepare. I highly recommend this cookbook, Lisa Lillien once again makes life easier for me! Thank you, Lisa and the entire Hungry Girl team for all the work you put into this. I love it!

Lisa Lillien knocked it out of the park!! 😋
I am in love with this cookbook!!! My daughter and I were flipping our way through all of the recipes saying “Oooo!! We have to make this”. We can’t wait to start making them all!! They look delicious and the ingredients are easy to find (no specialty store ingredients!) Already I can see that this cookbook will be a family favorite for years to come!! 😀

Easy, all natural recipes!
Just got this book today and right away we tried the Oven-Fried Fish Nuggets! Sooo yummy ! I love the easy homemade tartar sauce! There are so many other recipes we can't wait to try. I have many other Hungry Girl books and this one does not disappoint. I love that the recipes are easy and all natural.

Surprise bonus to an already good thing.
Came with black and white recipe photos, which we didn’t mind. However, since this was regarded as not as advertised, a second volume arrived with beautiful colour photos. This was much appreciated. My wife loves the recipes in this book.

Great cookbook
The cookbooks are great, easy simple and well written. Wish we could buy some of the products that go into the recipes in Canada

Pictures of recipes
I watched a Hungry Live on Facebook tonight and she made a recipe from this book, Fast and Easy. In the book she used the food pictures were in colour, why are mine in black and white.

Falsely advertised
Why is it advertised as ‘full color’ when it is all in black and white!! This was falsely advertised.

Not the actual publication
This is not the original publication, the pages are all black and white.
