Southern Living: 30 Years of Our Best Recipes

I purchased this cookbook and didn't really look at it until later. It was relegated to the shelf with the other cookbooks. One day, I needed a recipe for something really Southern. I looked everywhere, including the Internet, to no avail for a suitable recipe. I found many classic comfort food recipes that were simpler than I remember. Every recipe I tried has been great. I won't give it an A+ for health though. This is the full fat, full egg, full sugar version. I will say this though, many healthier substitutes work well in this cookbook for like fat free dairy products, egg substitute, or whole wheat bread. I even tried Splenda in these recipes and you couldn't tell a difference between it and sugar.

Never bought one f these that I didn’t like.

Savory recipes. Lasagna Maria is a special favorite and requested often. Many wonderful recipes made over and over again. Great as a house warming gift.

Adding to my collection ….love it❣️

I grew up in the South, and as a military wife, have lived all over. Southern living cookbooks have brought where I grew up to where ever I was living. I am a big fan. They obviously test their recipes out and edit well, because I haven't found any that flopped. I just love these books, and this one in particular has some of their "home runs" in it.
