Welcome to Litsy!

Going with cookbooks for today‘s #BreakInTitle prompt. I have had these two Breakaway cookbooks in my collection for years. I like the author‘s use of flavors & ingredients in different ways for fusion dishes. The Asian Pesto Udon & Maccha Salt (used on the poached eggs) are two favorites recipes that I make on a regular basis. 😋

I made this rhubarb upside down cake on the fly last night. It was so good!!!!

I tweaked a few things. Less sugar, more orange, and I used whole wheat flour because that‘s what I had. The crumble bottom did not disappoint; it‘s one of the best parts! I have missed the tang of rhubarb. Harris Teeter has it right now.

It was a hard task, but I managed to choose the six recent releases that I thought would be most fun to buddy-read with you all 🤗 (as opposed to omg-this-is-going-on-my-kindle-tomorrow bingeable #bookdragon territory). Did you vote yet?
I‘m so happy ya‘ll are hosting again this year, and the spreadsheet @squirrelbrain put together is 👩‍🍳💋. My TBR is much bigger, thanks littens for letting me know of all those juicy new books I was overlooking!

Sometimes baking makes me nervous. I‘m not sure why. I‘m much better at regular cooking. But let me tell you, this sweet potato cornbread from The Savory Baker was easy and my husband LOVED it. My first time making it! The recipe called for baking in a cast iron pan, but I wanted to make muffins instead. I also made some honey-cayenne butter to spread on them and oh my goodness *chef‘s kiss*

I love America‘s Test Kitchen cookbooks #mtcookbook

Last night‘s dinner! #mtcookbook I love this cookbook. I use it sometimes when I need a fun finger food type dish to take to a gathering or when I want to make something quick and easy. This is by the makers of those “quick hands” videos on social media. (I call them quick hands because I have to keep pausing and rewinding to catch all the ingredients, oven temp, bake times, etc.) Anyway, this was a delicious and easy meal to make after work.

This is definitely my favorite sourdough cookbook. I mixed up the dough for these overnight baguette twists yesterday afternoon, shaped them early this morning, and baked them before leaving for church. The recipe is simple and delicious!

Husband‘s request and I happened to have all the ingredients on hand. Now the fam‘s sweet teeth are all satisfied for the weekend!

This challenge is doing wonders for checking my books before the interwebs. 😊 #Mtcookbook

I‘ve watched a lot of Jamie Oliver‘s shows on the Roku channel, so this was cool to read one his cookbooks. I love that he included not just a picture of the finished product for every recipe but also pictures of the process. I know of very few cookbooks that do that. Great for less experienced people. Although, I do think there are recipes that would be challenging for beginners. Lots of nice variety. There are 21 recipes I want to make in here.
