Reviews


"Our old Bell Pioneer cookbooks were so ragged we decided to order a new one. This cookbook has a wide range of recipes, many with a Southern flavor. We especially like the spiral binding that allows the book to stay flat and open for reference while cooking. The print is easy to read and for the most part ingredients and instructions are clearly stated and easy to understand. I'm cooking my way through this cookbook right now and have yet to try a recipe that hasn't been good." --Barbara C. McCoy


"Great recipes that someone would use... simple recipes that you don't have to run out a search for strange or unusual ingredients... most are already in the pantry." --Micheal Watkins

Includes the Live Foods Live Bodies Theme
