There are some great recipes in this book. Most of them are pretty easy to make. I found the book to be better than I thought. I wasn't sure what I was going to get when I opened the book. Everything you need for a recipe you either already in your pantry or easy to get from your local store. A cook book worth having in your home., "With its brilliant photography and classic, traditional recipes, Wanda has created the perfect cookbook.

Sherry Gore, author of Simply Delicious Amish Cooking: Recipes and Stories from the Amish of Sarasota, Florida and editor-in-chief of Cooking & Such: Adventures in Plain Living magazine, This is probably the ideal first Amish cookbook to buy. It is extremely useful having a comb-bound recipe book which will open and lie flat! It would make an ideal gift for anyone who loves Wanda's Amish books and it is great to see the two original cookbooks combined into one volume. I am so looking forward to buying a print copy to add to my cookbook collection!, "With its brilliant photography and classic, traditional recipes, Wanda has created the perfect cookbook.

I plan to try my cooking hand at these and all of the other recipes that I enjoyed reading. I really like the way Barbour Books created this cookbook, with the recipes, pictures of the recipes, the Amish information throughout the book and the Amish pictures to go with the information. The color of the pages, different color borders between recipes, the pictures dividing each section, and the format of each page are all so eye-catching and pleasant to look at that I kept going back just to admire the beauty of the layout., This is the most amazing cookbook I've ever seen!
