Cookbook Give Away!!!

Can you believe it is July already? Where is the year going? I am halfway done with my New Southwest Cookbook challenge! And I want to share the book with you guys, so I am going to give one away!!! Keep reading to see how…

I also wanted you to know that it doesn’t have just dinner recipes. A few months ago, while I had friends in town, I took advantage of the chance to try out some of the breakfast recipes from The New Southwest Cookbook. There are few things better than cooking something delicious for houseguests. Makes me feel like a good hostess. And these were some pretty delicious recipes!

Tomato-Basil-Swiss Cheese Quiche
(p. 23- The Garden Cottage Bed and Breakfast- Cedar City, UT)
This was really delicious. The aroma was amazing, wafting out of the oven! It had all the delicious flavors of pizza- tomatoes, basil, cheese, which was not at all expected in an egg dish. This will definitely be made again soon.



Southwestern Biscuits with Sausage and Crayfish Gravy
(p.32- Remington's Scottsdale Plaza Resort- Scottsdale AZ)
I was slightly disappointed that this recipe did not include homemade biscuits, but just said to use Southern style biscuits. However, the gravy more than made up for it.


Nutball Coffee Cake
(p.39- The Garden Cottage Bed and Breakfast- Cedar City, UT)
I think I overcooked this one a little bit. It was bisquick/cinnamon dough, rolled into little balls, and each ball was coated in butter, then cinnamon sugar and then nuts. Pretty work intensive and I had really high hopes. It also had a yummy cream cheese frosting drizzle. Sadly, I think it baked a little long because the balls were a little dry in the middle.



Apple Fritters
(p. 38- Waunita Hot Springs Ranch- Gunnison, CO)
These were sooooooo good. Apple fritters that actually tasted like apples! You know how most fritters are just fried dough with maybe a couple of tidbits of apple? Not these- shredded apple was at least half of the doughnut. And anything that is fried and coated in sugar can’t be bad!



Ok, so you want to try some of these and the other delicious things I have been making? Here is how you get a copy- post a comment about which recipe you have seen that I have cooked that you want to try. Also, if share this give away on your Facebook page and leave me a comment about that, you will be entered a second time to win. I will post in the comments section who wins. Good luck!
