Potluck Club Cookbook - Easy Recipes, Excellent Taste!

The Potluck Club Cookbook

Eva Marie Everson and Linda Evans Shepherd authors of the book are experts when it comes to hosting and attending these shared meals. Veterans of countless potlucks over the years, the duo has gathered their favorite potluck-ready recipes—from salads to slow-cooker delights—plus their experienced insights about pulling off a potluck into one source: The Potluck Club Cookbook. Shepherd and Evans are also the authors of the popular fiction series The Potluck Club and The Potluck Catering Club—so their penchant for potlucks is obvious.

I have not personally read any of the fiction books written by these ladies, but I am always looking for new recipes to try and so when this book tour came along, I really wanted to participate.

There are sooo many good recipes in this, and the majority of them are super easy with accessible ingredients.

When my parents came to visit I made Texas Barbecued Chicken in a Crock-Pot. It got a thumbs up from both the adults and the child!

I also have made the Chicken in a Pot, which is as easy as can be and as close to comfort food as you're going to get!

And for dessert...Butterscotch Brownies....oh yum...

Another recipe, Mary's Slow Cooker Lasagna is on my list to try very soon.

If you are ever at a loss of what to bring to a potluck gathering, this book has over 100 recipes that will make you stand out among the crowd!

Here's a recipe from the book to whet your taste buds:
