SynopsisLooking for a fresh idea for a family dinner, something quick and easy to feed last-minute guests, or a special treat to take to a potluck? Not to worry. In Yankee Magazine's Church Suppers & Potluck Dinners Cookbook, you'll find over 275 delicious and time-saving dishes famous throughout New England. To compile this book, Yankee Magazine approached hometown churches and other popular community organizations across the region and asked them to share the recipes that are consistently everyone's local favorites. Hundreds of recipes flooded Yankee's mailbox, but only the very best made it into these pages. The result: this remarkable collection of true family classics and simplified gourmet feasts. From hearty casseroles to impressive company fare, rustic soups and inventive salads to luscious desserts that will win raves from kids and grownups alike, every recipe in Magazine's Church Suppers & Potluck Dinners Cookbook is a surefire winner. With an emphasis on convenience as well as taste, these dishes don't require special trips to the gourmet shop. Many can be prepared from produce on hand in your refrigerator and staples in your pantry, making them perfect for busy days or surprise company. (Also included are dishes that can be made ahead of time for last-minute preparation.) Need to make corn bread for 40, pancakes for 65, or chocolate cake for 100? Find the precise instructions in the chapter "Recipes to Feed a Crowd." And every chapter is complemented by wonderful suggestions for hosting potlucks and entertaining larger groups in general. Packed with crowd-pleasing recipes -- plus beautiful illustrations by Pamela Carroll -- Yankee Magazine's Church Suppers & Potluck Dinners Cookbook is sure to keep them coming back for more.
This is an excellent, authentic New England recipes cookbook. I am enjoying it and the first recipe I tried--Pumpkin Bread with Orange Spice Glaze was excellent.
There is a wide variety of offerings and I will spend this autumn, winter, and into spring trying many of them. Just the book to inspire me to get back to cooking creativity with tried and true selections from a variety of categories.
