Georgia Cooking in an Oklahoma Kitchen: Recipes from My Family to Yours Review

Georgia Cooking in an Oklahoma Kitchen: Recipes from My Family to Yours

I've been a fan of Trisha's for years (my husband even likes her music and he doesn't care for country music!), so this was a "must have" for me. I've collected lots of cookbooks over the years, but find myself returning to the same type over & over again. I'm sure this one will be one of those books. I've already made the brownies, which were excellent, and the Chicken Pie. Trisha stated that it was "pure comfort food" and the picture looked like a dish I used to order at a restaurant years ago at a restaurant back home in southern Ohio. It didn't disappoint! It was yummy and did taste a bit like the dish I remembered! Thanks for doing a book for people like me.....the ones who don't like complicated recipes, just good food!

Rachael Ray's Book of 10: More Than 300 Recipes to Cook Every Day Review

Rachael Ray's Book of 10: More Than 300 Recipes to Cook Every Day

This book is not anything new or glaringly different from Rachael Ray's other cookbooks. So, if you already have 1 or 2 of her cookbooks and are looking for new types of recipes you might want to skip this.
However if you are a fan, this book is a good purchase - it has a different concept; at the beginning a list is given of family faves, best dishes to show off, and super easy. The sections consist of entertaining, stretch a buck, burgers, vegetarian, pasta, seafood, one-pot, chicken, meat and date night. The index is divided by dish names and ingredients.
If you don't have any of her cookbooks this would add to your collection.
The book is a paperback and does have to be bent/coached into laying open on your kitchen counter, but so far it has held together and seems solid. There is one recipe per page - easy to read and a few picture sections.
You will not find fancy French cooking here or complicated recipes, this book is pure Rachael Ray. She has such a huge fan base because of her personality and style and the relative ease of her recipes. If that's what you are looking for, this is for you, or the gift you are looking to give.
