After four months behind bars at the Danbury Correctional Facility, Teresa Giudice appears to be finally adapting to her new surroundings.

People reports an attorney for "The Real Housewives of New Jersey" star states she is "adjusting well" and is now teaching prison exercise classes.

"The women take turns leading classes and she has her little group, so once in a while she takes the lead," said attorney James J. Leonard Jr. He added, "Teresa has a job working in the kitchen. She told me she enjoys it because it helps her pass the time and allows her to interact with the other inmates."

Prior to starting to serve her 15-month sentence on fraud-related charges, 42-year-old Giudice spent much of her time in the kitchen finishing off recipes for her new cookbook.

According to People, as part of that, she teamed up with Glam to compose a "devil shrimp over angel hair pasta" dish that made the pages of her "Fabulicious" cookbook.

"A lot of my recipes were passed down from my mom," she said back then. "My mom was born in Italy, I'm first generation here. Then from learning how to cook with my mom, I started coming up with my own recipes."

The pasta recipe, which includes spicy sautéed shrimp in a homemade red sauce, is rumored to be a favorite among Giudice's four daughters, Gia, Gabriella, Audriana and Milania. 

"My recipes are quick easy and delicious," she added. "Seafood and pasta together is the score."

With good behavior, Giudice could be released in as little as 13 months, but husband Joe is slated to begin serving his new four-year sentence on similar charges as soon as she has been released.
