Mark Bittman! How to Cook Everything! He’s terrific!
My absolute favorite cookbook is Bon Appetit’s Fast/Easy/Fresh. I’ve never made a bad recipe from it!
I’ve been seeing The Berry Bible all over recently – it would be a perfect summer cookbook!
Any of Sara Foster’s cookbooks!
Anything by America’s Test Kitchen.
My favorite cookbook is Authentic Mexican: Regional Cooking from the Heart of Mexico by Chef Rick Bayless. I’ve checked it out from the library many, many times. To have my own copy would be amazing.
I’m a fan on FB!
I tweeted the contest!
Without a doubt it’s Heidi Swanson’s Super Natural Cooking: Five Delicious Ways to Incorporate Whole and Natural Foods into Your Cooking
http://amzn.to/d9GS4U
This book is absolutely gorgeous. It has a really satisfying heft and page-feel that makes me feel like it’s been passed down for generations. It’s full of incredible recipes using whole, natural foods, paired for beautiful photos, and pages full of quick-to-read information on fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, empowering the reader to try her own recipes, too.
I tweeted the contest, too.
Alton Brown’s books are our standbys. Everything in them is reliably informative, disaster-resistant, and delicious.
I already get your emailed recipes, does that count for another chance to win?
Aaaaaaaaand I liked you on Facebook!
And subscribed to your email list.
So excited!
It seems this is where Snubbr’s services would come in handy for me! I usually just stick to finding recipes through tastespotting and foodgawker. Which is how I found this blog… which I immediately determined I needed to subscribe to via RSS feed!
I have had my eye on the Pioneer Woman’s cookbooks, but I haven’t gotten around to picking one up yet.
I “like”d you on Facebook!
Anything by Alton Brown or Ina Garten, though I am dying to check out the Pioneer Woman’s cookbook!
Love Jamie Oliver, and his magazine is a favorite too. My go to cookbook for delicious funky healthy fun is Rebar Modern Food, with some Vancouver Island twists.

The flavor bible!
Not really a cookbook, but “On Food and Cooking” by Harold McGee is a favorite of mine, but that is because I am a science and history wonk.
Along the same lines I like Alton Brown’s cookbooks because he gives you the “why” along with the “how.”
This is on my wish list. Vegan Cupcakes Take Over the World: 75 Dairy-Free Recipes for Cupcakes that Rule by Isa Chandra Moskowitz & Terry Hope Romero.I haven’t tried any of the recipes yet, but would like to. My sister is allergic to eggs and it would be so fun to make her cupcakes she could actually eat.
My favorite cookbook that I would like to own is “The Southern Italian Table
by Arthur Schwartz” which features my favorite Italian cuisine anytime.
The New Best Recipe: All-New Edition is one of my favorites!
“like’d” you on facebook
My favorite cookbook hands down is Fresh Food Fast. I cook one or two things from it every week. Not only are the recipes easy and delicious, they are also accompanied by gorgeous photos that really inspire to cook.
OH, sorry, wrong title! It’s Everyday Food: Great Food Fast. Love it.
I also receive your daily emails!
I recommend Pioneer Woman Cook Cookbook. The recipes are great and show full tutorials. But what makes it amazing is the gorgeous photography and graphics.

Cookbooks…always a good read! I always find inspiration in “Rachael Ray’s Get Togethers.” It has 3-course meals put together based on different occasions.
I receive your emails!

hmm there are several cookbooks I’d love to own–probably one by Dorie Greenspan or Mollie Katzen!!
I <3 the Betty Crocker Cookbook. If we do not know how to cook something the phrase in our house is "let's ask Betty." Betty is great for telling you how to cook all the basics, even down to how to make hard boiled eggs! An absolute must for all cooks
“The Joy of Cooking” is a great go-to cookbook for techniques. Martha Stewart cookbooks are excellent, too. “Field Guide to Cookies” and “Field Guide to Candy” have an amazing number of recipes packed into tiny cookbooks. Thanks for a chance at the giveaway.
I already subscribe to your email updates.
I tweeted the giveaway. {@ddh77}
I don’t know much about cooking. Really trying to learn. I need something that is really simple to start out with
I love Great Greens by Georgeanne Brennan.
My favorite cookbooks are The Complete Tassajara Cookbook by Edward Espe Brown and 1000 Indian Recipes by Neelam Batra.
Also, I’m a fan and I subscribed to your emails!
Oh, I see I need to leave multiple comments (my apologies!) I liked this on Facebook…
And I subscribed to the emails!
One of my favorites (that I use constantly) is Fresh From the Vegetarian Slow Cooker. I don’t remember who wrote it, but there are so many yummy things in there that I still have yet to try!

My favorite Cookbook is Hawaii’s Best Local Desserts.
I’ve been dying to try the famous “Veganomicon.” Everybody seems to have great things to say about this cookbook. I figure that any cookbook that is referred to as a vegan’s bible would be halfway decent though
the basic 1st cookbook from mollie katzen & the moosewood collective
already an email subscriber
Love The Pioneer woman Cooks.
