It‘s a ham & bean soup kinda supper tonight! 😋

Only just a couple of years ago I was a cookbook snob. Not anymore. 👏🏾 I still like “picture book” cookbooks, but I had to come to the hard realization I don‘t use them enough to justify purchasing them.

Sace ? "Cookbook snob". I think one of the first cookbooks to make an impression on me was White Trash Cooking. Sadly it's still my cooking/eating taste. 4y
Scochrane26 I have some cookbooks but end up only using a few—the church ones & better homes & gardens. 4y
Aimeesue I've been tricked into buying some very beautiful yet not at all useful to me cookbooks in the past few years. I'm always so disappointed when the recipes don't live up to my expectations, or take too much time and effort for my taste, because I know I'll never make them, even if they're fab. (edited) 4y
Tamra @Sace haha! I get it - I have few of my “pedestrian” favorites too that come out for the holidays usually. 4y
Tamra @Aimeesue me too! I love the Ottolenghi books, so beautiful and I would give a limb to eat at the restaurant, but I don‘t think I‘ve yet to make something from 4y

1. Tagged-I don‘t use a lot of cookbooks but that is probably the one I have used the most.
2. Um no. 🌭
3. Gordon Ramsay-adore him.
4. My favorite sandwich since I was a kid is bologna and ketchup. I also like mustard with my Doritos.

Slow cooker dinner tonight, which was a good choice because I did all the prep for it last night back when I only felt vaguely crummy and didn‘t yet feel like death. This is the “Family Favorite Casserole”, page 118. Very simple recipe, great if you don‘t have a ton of time (or in my case, energy!). I replaced the beef with ground mushrooms. Tons of leftovers, so I can be lazy for a few days!

Carolhreads Get well soon ! That meal looks good:) 6y

Moroccan Vegetable Stew with Couscous, page 152. This one was OK. Could've used more spice, but that was probably mostly me to blame for being too lazy to taste.

Lmstraubie Looks yummy! 7y

Garden vegetable bake. Another win! I forgot to buy tomatoes, so I used tomato sauce and added some chile limon spice. Lovely and bold flavor.

First recipe I tried from the next slow cooker cookbook I checked out of the library - "The Best Slow-Cooker Lasagna", p. 141. I have to agree - I've tried a number of slow cooker recipes and this one really is the best! Very traditional and ordinary lasagna, but big win. I'll be making this again for sure. ?

I'm not sure why I always wait until fall to bring out this cookbook. It has lots of great recipes that would be yummy all year long.
