Great Cookbooks!!

Misc.
Hi Tara,

First, let me thank you for the Oriental Burger recipe, we had them last night and they were awesome. Loved them and we will have them soon again....

The cookbooks you mentioned, Rao's, The Barefoot Contessa Cookbook, and the Silver Palate Cookbooks, are all personal favorites of mine. They have a variety of wonderful recipes that lend themselves to all sorts of occasions.

Ina Garten has another one out that is just wonderful, The Barefoot Contessa Parties!! It is chock-ful of pretty pictures and elicious recipes. Her style of cooking reminds me of my own, using lots of fresh ingredients in an innovative and imaginate way.

Another good book is....Katie Brown Entertains. Her book inspires you to come up with all sorts of imaginative ways to entertain. Her parties are all theme-based and easy to put together. It is a fun book.

Happy Cooking and thanks for sharing some of your favorite book titles.

Gina
