The Ultimate Southern Living Cookbook

While many excellent receipes are included, I find the information for purchasing the ingredients very helpful. Also the many definitions of cooking terms & other information about inventory, cooking time charts,etc. The first 25 pages are a gold mine. The pictures are very helpful too.

This cookbook has a great recipe almost on every page! Don't think you will need another cookbook at home with this one. If you collect cookbooks, this surely belongs in your collection!!

Honestly, I have never purchased something that I have been so thrilled with as I have this cookbook. It has everything you can imagine in it, including helpful tips, substitutions, etc., and appeals to cooks of all types. It makes a superior wedding shower gift and an awesome Christmas gift for anyone. It's for the novice and the expert as well. And boy, you just don't get any better than this when it comes to the recipes. Oh my, that sweet potato casserole in this book is just outstanding! Folks could not keep away from it during a holiday gathering and it was the first thing gone! It's that amazing and that good! Everything I've tried in this book (and I've tried a chunk) has been incredible. You can't go wrong in any way buying this book for yourself or anyone. It's that amazing and you really need to have it in your collection.

I have many, many cookbooks. This one is simple, easy to read; just good basic recipes. I am so thankful I have it.
