In her first cookbook, "Cravings," supermodel Chrissy Teigen proved that she knows her way around the kitchen. With her new book, "Cravings: Hungry for More," she builds on the successful formula of the 2016 best-seller. In a style that's witty, irreverent and refreshingly down to earth, she shares favorite recipes from comfort foods to variations on Thai dishes that she learned from her mom, Pepper.
The main difference, Teigen says, is there's a bit more emphasis this time on healthy meals.
"I got to travel and taste more things around the world," she says in the new book's intro, "and this book has some recipes with brighter flavors and maybe slightly less cheese and gravy and ... ham than 'Cravings.'" Motherhood has been one of the big changes in her life; she and her husband, singer John Legend, have two young children, and you get glimpses of their busy lives from the many photos in the cookbook.
An example of the healthier trend in Teigen's recipes is this tangy slaw with an oil-and-vinegar dressing. She describes it as "a clean, crunchy thing you just pull out of the fridge and snack on without feeling like you drank a quarter-cup Miracle Whip chaser."
