Oh, we love Gina Homolka for what she does. Known for her Skinnytaste blog and now bestselling cookbooks, Gina has found a way to take your all-time favorite meals and reimagine them as healthy, low-calorie recipes that you’ll want to make over and over again. In fact, you’ll have to because there WILL be requests. Family-friendly, easy to make, and economical, too, the recipes in Skinnytaste Fast and Slow come together in about 30 minutes (or less) or cook low and slow in your slow cooker while you’re at work. Gina’s recipes may be “skinny-ified” but they’re still flavor-packed, so you won’t feel deprived.  We’re so excited about the recipes in this book that we’re offering it up as a thank you gift when you support The Faith Middleton Food Schmooze® during our fund drive.
