At our May 7th meeting, we discussed Fix It With Food: Every Meal Easy by Michael Symon. We had to make some substitutions but overall, many of the recipes contain ingredients that are easily obtained. We tried several egg dishes and they were delicious. 

Our next meeting will be July 23 at 6pm in the LME Library's large meeting room. The cookbook is SkinnyTaste Simple by Gina Homolka and copies are available at the front desk. You can try or peruse the recipes then create one and bring it to our July 23 meeting. If you love to cook or try new recipes, please join us!

At yesterday's meeting (March 5th) of the Cookbook Club, the group brought dishes made from Jamie Oliver's One: Simple One-Pan Wonders. We sampled 2 pasta recipes and one dessert. Even though the recipes had few ingredients, we found that there was a bit of a disconnect between what is easily obtainable in the US versus the UK. (We all had to make some substitutions.) Even though these were "one-pan" recipes, we found that we needed to use multiple bowls during the prep process. However, everyone seemed to enjoy the recipes they tried.

We also set the dates/titles of Cookbook Club meetings for the rest of 2024 (all meeting times are 6pm):
