The Good Home Cookbook Giveaway - CLOSED
THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED. A WINNER WILL BE ANNOUNCED SHORTLY. THANKS!
I looooove cookbooks. I cannot walk out of a thrift shop or a yard sale if there is a cookbook anywhere in sight. However...for the most part I'm just a collector of cookbooks and only once in a blue moon do I go scavenging through one to make something new (I mean...hello? internet?)
But I do like them. When I buy them I'll sit and read through them front to back and put sticky notes on all the recipes I have good intentions to try.
So there, I admitted it...I'm a collector of cookbooks but lazy about using them.
You still love me right?
Anyway I couldn't pass up the opportunity to giveaway a copy of The Good Home Cookbook by Richard J. Perry to one of my readers. This book has more than 1,000 recipes in it plus tips on canning, pickling, freezing, thawing, presentation, garnishes.
It's 512 pages...15 chapters of recipe love.
Breakfast recipes, lunch, appetizers, salads, fish, poultry, grilling, pasta, drinks, rice, veggies, breads, pies, cakes, cookies and desserts...oh my!
A few of my sticky-noted recipes
Long Island Iced Tea (yep, I went right for the booze)
Grilled Kitchen-Sink Burgers (those sound healthy, right?)
Mexican Tortilla Soup
It even has the recipe for Crispy Rice Squares (you know I wanna call them the other name...) because, admit it...some of you don't know how to make them.
I don't! Not off the top of my head anyway.
I have one copy of The Good Home Cookbook to give away to one lucky Fairy Blog Mother reader.

«Oldest ‹Older 1 – 200 of 255 Newer› Newest»I like to make green bean cassarole. This is a pretty lame favorite, I think, but it's the first thing I learned how to cook, and so it's my favorite.
I just make it the way my mom did --- two cans of french style green beans, one can of cream of mushroom (or chicken), mix it together in a pyrex baking dish, and then top with like two huge cans of french fried onion rings.... lol!
Anyway, delicious, and I love it!
like making lasagne as well as making an egg hash- exactly as it sounds- scrameled eggs- pototatoes precooked in microwave and mixed in aand cheese- for those liking meat I will add sausage or turkey or ham
I like to make a big pot of red beans and rice from scratch. It is great comfort food and travels well too.
actually, after all these years I'm still searching to discover what my favorite recipe is.
I would like this cookbook...not that I would use it, but I also collect them!!!
I have something for you on my blog....

I make Kitchen Sink Breakfast/Supper. You basically saute' onions, hash browns, ham (or whatever you like or whatever you need to get rid of small amounts of). When it's done to your liking, you scramble eggs, pour them over the top and cook til just set. I usually top with cheese (who doesn't need a few extra calories?). Great way to get rid of some leftovers and make a new dish.
I like to make any kind of pasta, it's one of my favorite foods!
I like to fix lasagne, hearty and so tasty.
I love Chicken Parmesan, and I found an incredible recipe in a cookbook called Applehood and Motherpie. Very easy and very delicious. Thank you!
My favorite is sharks and maggots, such named after a week of pirating! Thin sliced pork and rice with a nice gravy. The kids thought it was cool. Of course it was interesting explaining this dish to the teachers who all day heard about eating sharks and maggots. Yes, I was embarrassed. I am queenesperfect at yahoo.com
Vinegar pie: 2 eggs, 1 cup brown sugar, 1 stick real butter, 1/4 cup flour, 1tsp. pumpkin spice, 1 cup water to which was added 3 ttbsp. cider vinegar and 1 tblsp. Lemon juice first. Melt butter, stir in spices, Brownsugar, flour, slowly wisk in eggs, water. Pour mixture carefully in 9inch pie plate lined with pastry, bake 325 for 1 hour or until puffy. Nuts can be added to filling, if desired. My husband proposed marriage when I made this on our third date, so keep that in mind, ladies. writer61@yahoo.com

I like making Pizza Casserole, because it's quick, easy and lasts a couple meals.

One of my favorite dishes to prepare is potato salad. The secret is to drizzle the potatoes with olive oil and a pinch of salt while they are STILL WARM. They really absorb the flavor that way. Once the potatoes are completely cooled, add your favorite mixture of mayonnaise, mustard, seasoning, green olives, celery, onions ... whatever you like in your potato salad. I promise, you will love it! Thanks for the chance to win a great cookbook! Sounds like it will have lots of helpful tips! (krstrpp at hotmail dot com)
Eggplant Parmesan......
I also love cookbooks! I do a lot of cooking usually for all three meals every day but I honestly can't think of anything I love to cook. I would probably have to say comfort foods like soups and stews and chilis are my very favorite. I'm also always very proud of my turkey, turkey Mercedes from a recipe I clipped out of the newspaper a few years ago. Here is that link; http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Turkey-Mercedes/Detail.aspx
My family loves pot roast. I have a crockpot recipe I use all the time that is so simple. All you use is 2 1/2 lb. Chuck roast,
2 packets dry Italian dressing mix &
1 cup water.My family loves it.

My favorite is a dish with Cannellini and Tuna over Pasta because it's my husband's favorite.
I love making homemade chicken alfredo - its one of my familis favorites!
i am a blog follower
The easiest thing I make (and therefore a favorite!) is my "six-can" chili. One lb. ground beef, browned, drained and rinsed. Two cans each tomato sauce, petite diced tomatoes and chili hot beans. If you use "for chili" tomatoes and sauce, you don't even have to add any chili powder, salt or cayenne.
Lasagna - I LOVE almost any kind of lasagna. I have sworn off carbs until after my wedding though so I cannot wait to dig into a plate soon after!

We love "Nun's chicken" (named because my MIL received the idea from a visiting nun while undergoing a chemo treatment).
It is simple - butterflied skinless chicken breast rolled around several stalks of asparagus and a slice of muenster cheese, then covered with your favorite tomato sauce and more muenster cheese, and baked. Yum!

I like roasting a chicken. I make mixture of a couple of tablespoons each of softened butter and olive oil, then add salt, coarsely ground pepper, dried or fresh thyme and rosemary, and 3 or 4 cloves of finely minced garlic (I use a garlic press). I rub this mixture all ove the skin, and underneath the breast skin. Then I roast the chicken, starting it at 450 for 10 minutes, then turning it down to 350 and roast until done. I serve this with eithermashed potatoes or buttered noodles.
It depends on when you ask me, but today I would say it is the ribs that I make every once in a while. Easy to make and my family loves them!
