Taste of Home Recipes Across America

 

Taste of Home Recipes Across America, is one recipe book I think everyone should own. It is full of wonderful recipes that the whole family can truly enjoy. It is divided into 5 regions (Northeast, South, Midwest, Southwest, and West). In this cookbook it offers 735 delectable recipes!! I had a lot of fun looking at each recipe and I found a lot that I am excited to try out!

Over the weekend I decided to do some cooking and I tried out a couple of the recipes, and I have to say I was pretty impressed. I did an Irish Soda Bread and a Venison Roast! Both recipes turned out really well. My husband loves venison and he said this recipe is one of the best he has had. I was impressed he said that, as he has tried so many different ways to cook venison!

Irish Soda Bread

 

One recipe I really loved was the Irish Soda Bread! My mother-in-law makes something similar to this all the time! I was impressed with the recipe, it turned out really well. I did add a little cinnamon to my recipe but I kept everything else the same.
