I''m Pioneer Woman.
And I love to cook.
Once upon a time, I fell in love with a cowboy. A strapping,
rugged, chaps-wearing cowboy. Then I married him, moved to his
ranch, had his babies . . . and wound up loving it. Except the
manure. Living in the country for more than fifteen years has
taught me a handful of eternal truths: every new day is a blessing,
every drop of rain is a gift . . . and nothing tastes more
delicious than food you cook yourself.
The Pioneer Woman Cooks: Food from My Frontier is a
mouthwatering collection of the simple-but-scrumptious recipes that
rotate through my kitchen on a regular basis, including Perfect
Pancakes, Cowgirl Quiche, Sloppy Joes, Italian Meatball Soup, White
Chicken Enchiladas, and a spicy Carnitas Pizza that''ll win you
over for life. There are also some elegant offerings for more
special occasions at your house: Osso Buco, Honey-Plum-Soy Chicken,
and Rib-Eye Steak with an irresistible Onion-Blue Cheese Sauce. And
the decadent assortment of desserts, including Blackberry Chip Ice
Cream, Apple Dumplings, and Coffee Cream Cake, will make your heart
go pitter-pat in the most wonderful way.
In addition to detailed step-by-step photographs, all the
recipes in this book have one other important quality in common:
They''re guaranteed to make your kids, sweetheart, dinner guests,
in-laws, friends, cousins, or resident cowboys smile, sigh, and beg
for seconds. (And hug you and kiss you and be devoted to you for
life.)
I hope you enjoy, devour, and love this book.
I sure did love making it for you.
