Cook It, Spill It, Throw It: The Not-So-Real Housewives Parody Cookbook

by Stuart O'Keeffe, Amy Phillips

Celebrity chef Stuart O'Keeffe and comedian Amy Phillips razz the Real Housewives in this gorgeous cookbook filled with recipes inspired by iconic moments in the franchise’s rich history. With a foreword by Andy Cohen.


“Cook It, Spill It, Throw It is an immersive, one-of-a-kind experience in a world we can’t escape (but let’s face it, we don’t want to!).” —from the foreword by Andy Cohen

Trends come and go, but watching rich women drink and catfight is forever. Which is why after more than a decade of airing, the Real Housewives phenomenon continues to reign supreme in the pop culture stratosphere. Week after week, season after season, loyal fans watch the thrilling drama—the backstabbing, the gossiping, the screaming, the table flipping, the wine tossing—unfold. 

Cook It, Spill It, Throw It is a cookbook created specifically for Housewives fans. Chef Stuart O’Keeffe and comedian Amy Phillips—long-time devotees themselves—have dreamed up an inviting menu served with a side of delicious snark.

Inspired by the series and its stars, the dishes and drinks evoke familiar moments of chaos from the franchise. Whether you’re looking to make Ponytail Pulled Pork, or you want to comfort a friend in the Caicos with Eggs a Lu’Francais, there’s a meal for you—and there are definitely plenty of drinks (including Henny-thing Can Happen and the classic Singer Stinger Sipper).

Featuring gorgeous original photography and equally gorgeous recipes, Cook It, Spill It, Throw It is the must-have cookbook and companion for every Housewives addict.

This book was very funny. If you're a fan of the housewives, you'll get each piece of humor. The photographs were really beautiful too. Although I didn't make any of the recipes, that's not why I read it. I read it because I'm a Housewives fan; and if this is your reason for picking up the book, you won't be disappointed. It's a quirky, conversation, coffee table book for any Housewives fan -- or, a unique gift! 10/10 would recommend!

I love the housewives so I was interested to see what this was like. I rated it 3 stars because many of these recipes just seemed to complicated. I loved the ideas and the back stories they were based on. The recipes though just seemed a little too much work to make. If you are a more expert chef this might be right up your ally.

If your a bravo fan you'll get a good laugh from this book and maybe even a few recipes you'll use for your gatherings.

I gave this a five because it was all it advertised itself to be; a witty food based commentary on all things Housewives.
