Hi Melissa, great giveaway. I love cookbooks as you probably guessed. Both the simple salads and simple sippers are books that would get a lot of use in my house. Thanks for the opportunity :)
ReplyDeleteI went to Jennifer Chandler's website and got a recipe for Pumpkin Gratin with Sundried Tomatoes which I would never have thought of, but I love to try new things, so I printed it out to file away with some other fall favorites. I also got a recipe for Bananas Foster Waffles which I CAN NOT WAIT to try!!!

I especially like the idea of a comfort food cookbook as summer ends! In summer, I cook a lot of Mexican food (carne asada, sopa de lima, and fish tacos) since my husband is from there...but since it's almost fall, I'll start to crave chicken pot pie and beef stew!
ReplyDeletewolverina401 at gmail dot com
I love her comment of how she got into the food business "Because I love to eat"...that is my slogan but I love to eat NOT cook..LOL
ReplyDeleteI would also love to try some of the Simply Salad recipes. I am always looking for a good salad as I try to lose and maintain a healthy weight.
