#MtCookBook

Saturday morning means time to try a new recipe for a late and leisurely breakfast. I don‘t own a waffle iron, but I easily adjusted the recipe to bake waffle sticks instead. The batter includes blended dates, and then the waffles are served with a delicious toffee sauce.

TheBookHippie I wondered about this cookbook! Thanks for the link! 1d
Daisey @TheBookHippie I love following Deb‘s website and always find a few recipes in her cookbooks to try. 1d
Tamra Nice treat! 😋 1d

Many of the recipes sound and look delicious! The author includes personal notes for each recipe, which I really enjoy. This is the first recipe I tried (#mtcookbook success!), but I have it on display, tempting me to try others!

This is the Brown Sugar Almond Pound Cake that I served at Mother‘s Day brunch with macerated berries and whipped yogurt.

mabell Side note - I think I‘m going to try to find a new bundt pan, as mine is dark “non-stick”, and the long baking time for pound cakes really browns the crust 3d
Tamra What a beauty! 😍 3d
mabell @Tamra Thank you! It‘s a fabulous recipe! And it keeps well 😊 3d

It is entirely possible that I will umami myself to death.
Puréed the preserved lemons I made (from the Meyer lemons that grew on my tiny tree) to make preserved lemon paste.
Paired with Kerrygold Dubliners cheese on a pretzel cracker, it is divine.

Aimeesue @Beatlefan129 It‘s fabulous! I love both lemons and salt, so it seemed like a no-brainer. I did have to wait several months for the lemons to ferment though, so it‘s not exactly quick 😂 7d
Aimeesue @Tamra Holy cow, I have a whole quart, almost. If you lived nearby, I would sure offload so- i mean, GIVE some to you! 🤣 🍋 🍋 🍋 7d
mabell Oh how cool!! I tried preserving lemons once, and it was a fail 🤣 7d
batsy That looks absolutely delicious! 6d
Aimeesue @mabell oh no! I‘ve tried doing slices before and they turned out OK but not great, but I went with quarters this time and threw them in the back of the fridge for 4 months. 😂 6d
Aimeesue @batsy I cannot adequately describe how much I love the lemon paste. Words fail me. *SWOON* 6d
mabell @Aimeesue I don‘t think the recipe I followed used the fridge! I‘ll have to try again! 5d

Husband‘s request - brownies. Any bets on how long the pan will last?

I‘m not a baker beyond the basics and this companion is perfect support. Lots of helpful advice in it. #Mtcookbook

Mehso-so

While I really like the layout and the cute graphic for nutrition information, this is not a cookbook for me. Low-carb in this case means using chick pea flour for all breads, cauliflower rice instead of regular rice and vegetables instead of pasta.

I only wanted to make about 10-12 of the 75 recipes. But the ones I made were all good and one was amazing. I now follow her on social media, hoping to collect the handful of amazing recipes.

Tamra Yay for the borrow and not the buy! 😄 Unfortunately I find this to be the case for so many cookbooks. Still it‘s fun to browse. 1w
TheBookHippie I‘m getting into the borrow mode just for this reason! 1w

Liz_M @TheBookHippie @Tamra Exactly! I'm test-driving the cookbooks and if I find one I like, I will buy it (already bought one). 1w
Tamra @Liz_M which one did you like? 1w
IndoorDame I‘m all for trying that stuff once. I found out I actually love chickpea flour, but detest cauliflower rice! 1w
Liz_M @Tamra the pictured recipe: Saag Lasagne 1w
Liz_M @IndoorDame True enough, but I don't currently make breads as part of my cooking routine and am not ready to add them to the rotation. So I didn't want to buy a 2lb bag for recipes that needed 1 Tbs. 1w
IndoorDame @Liz_M oh, totally! Just throw in standard flour! 🤣 1w

Library borrow.
Many good quick recipes that I copied down
Many recipes with food that is not available here
Many nut and fish ingredients which I can‘t do for my whole family due to allergies.
It is laid out very nicely and it is simple.
So not buying but may borrow again #mtcookbook

Cortg Yummy. I just places a library hold 😊 2w
Tamra Yay for the borrow strategy! 2w
IndoorDame OMG! You are the coolest!!!! I just got a surprise from you in the mail and I don‘t think I‘ve smiled this much in weeks! 💜💜☮️💜💜 2w

Just came across the #MtCookbook tag and decided that it‘s about time for me to give my cookbook shelves some attention. I think my goal will be to decide to either #readordonate ten cookbooks by the end of the year. Most of these have been fun to collect, but I‘ve only used a handful of recipes in them, as I look online a lot for the recipes I use. These aren‘t all my cookbooks, but this is the bulk of them. Since I need to start eating ⬇️

slategreyskies (Cont.) more healthy meals (low sodium, gluten free and anti-inflammatory), some of these cookbooks may no longer work for me. Looking forward to going through them and finding the ones that do, though! 2w
Tamra Yay! 👏🏾 We‘re happy to have you join in! I always enjoy seeing others‘ cookbooks and what they think of them. 2w
Tamra We have several in common. 😊 2w

slategreyskies @Tamra it‘s a dangerous tag to follow, as I can see myself easily adding more cookbooks to my shelves after I see some of yours! 🤣 2w

Indonesian Shrimp Fried Rice for #Mtcookbook! I love all of the concise options ATK offers in one place. I‘m a big fan of tables & charts with variations of something.

From now on my rice preference is basmati, as blasphemous to the stir fried rice tradition as that might be.

Tonight I‘m going to try the orange sesame. 😋 (With chili crisp of course.) ♥️

Amiable I love basmati rice, too. 2w
Tamra @Amiable 😊 I like that the grains remain separate. 2w
JacqMac Bad@Stu is my preference, too. For all things. lol 2w
mabell Yum! How did the orange sesame turn out? 2w
Tamra @mabell we all liked it! It‘s hard not to like fried rice. 🙃 2w

Score for $1.99 😃 Sometimes good things come to those who wait. I‘ve checked this out of the library a couple times.

Happily adding elevation to #Mtcookbook

mcctrish That will be jam packed with deliciousness 👏🏻👏🏻 2w
Tamra @mcctrish I believe so! 🤞🏾 2w
