Church Suppers: 722 Favorite Recipes from Our Church Communities

Book Overview

Church Suppers celebrates gatherings of neighbors, family, and friends with delicious, down-home recipes from all over the United States and Canada. These are the dishes we remember and cherish, that bring us back to a simpler time: Fiesta Dip, Red Flannel Hash, Sloppy Joe Turnovers, Green Bean Casserole, Earthquake Cake, Blueberry Buckle...plus many regional and ethnic foods: Moussaka, Jambalaya, Chiles Rellenos, Babka, Cannoli, and more. And because the recipes come from real people with bustling families, busy work schedules, imperfect kitchens, and realistic budgets, they are easy to prepare and focus as much on simplicity as they do on taste. Full of local flavor and rounded out with line drawings and anecdotes about the contributing churches, Church Suppers is a delightful addition to any home kitchen.

Customer Reviews

This is one of the best all around cookbooks I have ever had! I love it! So many great American recipes from all over the country. I was actually online looking for a sequel, when I saw they sold the one I had on this site and I felt I had leave my review.

WOW! So Surprised!

I've never been more pleased! This collection of church recipes is HUGE! The cookbook itself is larger than 8.5x11, and the recipes are the "tried and true" kind that are getting harder to locate in this day and age. If you're looking for great recipes look no further...this is the cookbook for you...and the best part is the price!

Great comfort food recipes.

I gave this to my mother as a gift and she enjoys the diversity of recipes. This is reminiscent off the recipe books that local organizations publish to raise money that contain favorite recipes contributed by the locals.

Church Suppers: 722 Favorite Recipes From Our Church Communities

The recipes in this book are wonderful and easy to make. I have received rave reviews from all the women in the my Redhat Society group for my cooking ability. I thank this cook book.

Wonderful Cookbook

I do not normally write reviews but I really appreciate the reviews I read on other cookbooks. I collect cookbooks and cook for a hobby and for a living. This cookbook is wonderful. I have spent over 20 yrs trying to find the "perfect" coleslaw recipe. The Memphis coleslaw is absolutely wonderful. I also love the pasta salad recipe... and the long searched for strawberry pretzel dessert. This is the first cookbook that I check if I want to make something. If there is an old recipe that you are looking for, you will probably find it in this book.. and it will be delicious!
