Introduction


Over the years, I’ve met so many people who have told me they want to eat healthier, but they don’t like to cook. Their reasoning is that it’s too hard, too much work, or they don’t have time. And to be honest, anytime I see a recipe in a cookbook that has a long list of ingredients, I usually avoid it myself! When I have a lot going on, I’m lucky if I get a healthy meal on the table every night, so cooking complicated recipes that require a lot of time is certainly a luxury. Even though I’m often short on time, I love cooking at home and knowing what goes into the food I’m eating.

That’s why this cookbook is filled with healthy recipes that use no more than 7 ingredients. I want to make feeding yourself and your family good-for-you meals easier than ever. Whether you’re busy, tired, a beginner cook, looking for budget-friendly meals—or all of the above!—this book is for you.

My hope is to get everyone to enjoy cooking their own homemade meals, and with these recipes, there are no excuses. We are all busy but still want to eat well, so this book is both simple to cook from and doesn’t require a large shopping list, which also means saving more money at the grocery store.

How do you create flavorful dishes with minimum fuss? I have a few tricks: finding winning flavor and ingredient combinations; using super fresh in-season produce; seasoning with lots of bright herbs, spices, and citrus; and utilizing condiments and sauces that pack a lot of flavor. I’ve made it as simple as possible to cook nutritious and delicious food, with just 7 ingredients or fewer, any night of the week. The dishes in this book have become recipes I repeat over and over in my home, and I can’t wait for you to try them, too.

Not only are the recipes in these pages simple and easy, but they can also help you stick to your wellness goals. I made sure to include plenty of protein in each dish because it’s satiating, so you can fill up on simple, tasty foods without going overboard on portion sizes. Many of the recipes are also veggie-packed and include lightened-up versions of your favorite indulgences, like Baked Beef Stew with Butternut Squash (page 218) and Instant Pot Spaghetti Rings with Beef (page 205). Since all of the recipes are short, I focused on the quality of ingredients and flavors over quantity. The result is a book jam-packed with nutritious dishes that couldn’t be simpler to make.

There’s everything from breakfast items to recipes for sharing with friends to a whole chapter on soups and main-dish salads, to dinner recipes. I’ve also included desserts like Coconut Rice Pudding with Mango (page 293) and Mini Blueberry Swirl Cheesecakes (page 273) that you can enjoy anytime. To make things even simpler, there are a lot of sheet pan recipes, such as Sheet Pan Tomato Soup with Grilled Cheese Croutons (page 91), as well as one-pot dishes like One-Pot Creamy Gnocchi with Chicken and Leeks (page 185), and even some Instant Pot and air fryer recipes like Instant Pot “Baked” Ziti with Spinach (page 115) and Air Fryer Chicken Drumsticks (page 175).

When I first started exploring this concept, I have to admit I was hesitant—I thought it would be tough. How do you cut back on ingredients without losing flavor? But I love a good challenge, so I had a lot of fun testing these recipes. Even with so few ingredients, these recipes are packed with flavor and turned out to be some of my favorites from any of my cookbooks. And since this is my 7th cookbook, it felt like a 7-ingredient cookbook was meant to be.

I hope you enjoy the simplicity of this cookbook and love it as much as I do! It’s sure
to become a favorite on your bookshelf, and it’s the perfect book to share with friends or family members who love easy, healthy meals as much as you do. If you share a meal from this book on social media, be sure to tag me so I can see what you’re cooking and reshare on my social channels. I love seeing everyone’s favorite cookbook recipes in action!

I like that there are fewer ingredients than there are in many Skinnytaste recipes that are available on the website. The book is beautifully presented with photographs of each dish. The ingredients are shown in small photos on the side of the recipe text page, which is extremely helpful, however, not all ingredients are pictured (like salt, pepper, water) in many cases, so don't just go by the picture. Read the instructions while gathering ingredients to make sure you have all of them ready. All of the recipes I've tried so far are fantastic. I highly recommend this book. I bought one for myself and gifted two others.

I've had the book for a few weeks and made about 10 recipes from it. Every single recipe is easy to make, ingredients are simple and easy to find at the super market, they're healthy and they taste really great. My boyfriend has also loved everything, with the biggest hits being the turkey meatballs (which I served with spaghetti and red sauce) and the gnocchi with chicken and cream sauce. I love that I can just flip through this book, pick out 3 or four recipes, make a short & simple grocery list, and go to the store. It makes planning and shopping really easy and keeps my grocery list to a manageable level in these inflationary times. Definitely recommend this book, it's becoming a new staple at my house.

Gina really knocked it out of the park this time. I love all of her other cookbooks and enjoy cooking out of them when I have time. But she really tuned into the needs of her readers and provided many amazing looking recipes that require few ingredients and are quick and easy. There is a great deal of variety in terms of types of foods, method of preparation and dietary preferences. My favorite part is the format. They added pictures of the ingredients and it gives you a quick view of the flavors. I just love the book completely!

Received mine this morning and WOW, I love this cookbook!! While I don't mind a recipe with lots of ingredients, sometimes I just want to make something SIMPLE. And Gina delivers. These recipes sound full of flavor and easy. I can't wait to try them. I love that there are color pictures for every recipe, and I really LOVE that there are pics of all the ingredients beside of each recipe. When she says up to 7 ingredients for each recipe she means it. This cookbook is right up my alley. Thanks Gina for all you do!!! Ready to get started.

This book is everything we hoped for and more. My partner and I wanted to start cooking, but wanted a cookbook that didn't require recipes with tons of ingredients. This book provides healthy meals, many of which includes ingredients we always have on hand, so we don't have to go out to the store every time we want to whip up a new meal. The pictures show exactly what your food will look like if you follow the easy steps for each recipe, and it is easy to add in or substitute ingredients.

Once again, Gina puts out a winner. This cookbook is amazing and a must for busy families that need a fast and easy dinner, most especially during the week nights! I have tried several recipes from this cookbook already since I got it Wednesday. Everything so far is delicious and simple to put together. Making Madison's Steak Tacos with Cilantro Lime Rice tomorrow night for Taco Tuesday. Speaking of tacos, I see three different recipes for tacos in the cookbook already, perfect for my family who loves their Taco Tuesday nights! There's something for everyone in this cookbook, just like all of the other Skinnytaste cookbooks. Gina is so helpful and thoughtful of those who have food allergies or intolerances, such as gluten or sugar, almost always tries to recommend an alternative ingredient, if she is able to, not only in her cookbooks, but also her Skinnytaste website. She has many vegan, vegetarian, and high protein recipes. Gina is the only cookbook author that I would buy before even looking at the cookbook, because every single cookbook she's put out is fantastic, and baby, I have them all! Looking forward to the next cookbook from Gina!

4.0 out of 5 stars Yummy Recipes BUT... "7 Ingredients" Is Deceiving
Reviewed in the United States on November 3, 2023

I'm back for another review of my favorite books ever...cookbooks! I read cookbooks like most people read murder mysteries :) I'm also a certified functional nutrition counselor so I'm always looking for wonderful recipes that feed the soul AND feed the body well. I don't love that this book is called "Skinnytaste" because I think "skinny" isn't a healthy goal but I do know what they are going for so I'll look past that.

The receipes have all of the basic nutritional information at the bottom of the page which I LOVE! There are wonderful, full color pictures for each recipe, something I think is a must have in any great cookbook. My biggest hang up with this book is that when they say "7 ingredients" that's NOT the truth! They count processed, already made items (that have many ingredients in them) as 1 ingredient. Some examples: White Pizza and Spinach- pizza dough is an ingredient, Instant Pot "Baked" Ziti with Spinach- "good quality marinara sauce" is an ingredient and lastly in Stracciatell Tortellini Soup- tortellini is an ingredient.

As always, to be fair to the author I made 2 recipes, I made the Ham and Swiss Omelet Wrap as well as the High-Protein Waffles. I really liked both recipes!! The omelet wrap was easy to make, easy to take in the car, quick to prepare and delish!! The high-protein waffles were fluffy, thanks to the egg whites, my kids loved them with peanut butter and bananas on top. I'll definitely make more of these recipes in the future.
