The Mindy Project star revealed her semi-obsession with Teigen's cookbook, Cravings, on Instagram Sunday, and encouraged her followers to try some of the book's delicious recipes as well. "Hands down my favorite cookbook is #cravingscookbook by the wonderful @chrissyteigen," Kaling captioned a split shot Monday on Instagram, which showed the cookbook and two mouthwatering dishes. "On the right are two of my favorite recipes: King's Hawaiian BLPTS and pot pie soup. I die. Get this book and do a full Julie & Julia with it like I'm doing." "Julie & Julia," as in whip up everything in the cookbook. When Teigen caught wind of the actress's compliment, she flipped out with delight, writing in her comments, "@mindykaling NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I don't believe this! So awesome. Thank you thank you!!!" Get All of the Details on Mindy Kaling's Custom-Made Dress from The Mindy Project As Kaling continued to cook her way through the model's craveable recipes, she went on to repost a photo of herself cooking up some grub. "Thanks @elisabethstassenwellness for capturing me at my most comfortable, in the kitchen. Mrs. Stassen had a lot to learn," she jokingly captioned the shot. Practice makes perfect, after all.
