Customer Reviews

My most-used cookbook

I have over 200 cookbooks, I often times go to sleep reading cookbooks and I relate to the world in many aspects through my stomach. I love food and cooking. This is definitely my most-used cookbook, I don't know how many times I've looked for a recipe, finally gotten this book out and there it was all the time. I consult this book first. I have several Junior League cookbooks, this is my favorite. Everything I have cooked out of this book has been good. Don't even think about it, just buy this book. You won't be diappointed.

Our standard wedding gift

If we know you and you're married, we've probably sent you a copy of this book. It's a great wedding present--because it offers so many easy, yet creative and satisfying recipes. It's the best Junior League cookbook that this "foodie" has seen--even better than the other Junior League of Denver offerings. My personal favorites are the Szechwan Cashew Chicken, the Marinated Chicken Breasts in Pepper Sauce and the Angel Hair with Basil and Crab. I would note that the book is light on seafood recipes (it's from land-locked Colorado--duh!), but more than makes up for it with excellent poultry, pasta and salad offerings.

Creme de Colorado Cookbook

Creme de Colorado is the most wonderful cookbook. I have a variety of other cookbooks and I always find something to please from the recipes in the Creme. From the mexican selections to the pastries, breads and desserts...everything is wonderful with great results. I highly recommend this cookbook to anyone - you'll throw your other books away! If you're looking for recipes to prepare with your game meat - has wonderful recipes from the finest restaurants in Colorado. You can't miss with this book!

The BEST cookbook

I don't cook much. I don't like to cook. I don't cook well. People always give me cookbooks "to help". I would try one or two recipes, but they were always mediocre or I would eventually make a recipe that tasted awful. ... and then I got this book. EVERY dish I've made from this book has gotten rave reviews and people photocopying my book. I've tried at least a dozen recipes and they are outstanding. It is the only cookbook I use.

You can't go wrong with any recipe

I've tried about 30 recipes from this book, and, you just can't go wrong with any of them. I've also given this book as a gift to approximately 15 friends, who all love it as I do.
