The Dairy Good Cookbook

I absolutely love dairy and can't get enough of it. It was really interesting to learn a bit about the background of it and how it gets from a farm to your plate. I'm excited to try some of the recipes in here!

What a wonderful book. Love the pictures and imagery throughout, and the recipes are easy and tasty. The soups and pizzas are on my list, and I made the chicken enchiladas for dinner tonight, and it was a great hit. A great recipe book, that has the tastes of my childhood visiting relatives in dairyland in central Minnesota. This one is a definite keeper, and I highly recommend this book for your recipe library.

Love this cookbook! Great collection of good, useable recipes. Can't wait to add this to my home collection. Thank you for the preview.

I grew up in dairy country and spent many hours milking, feeding and taking care of cows. This delightful book brought back so many memories: from the life of dairy farming to the wonderful taste taste of fresh milk and dairy and the amazing recipes made from them!

The above description of the book really does a fine job, so I won't rehash what is already there. The recipes I tried were delicious. The Apple-Pecan Coffee Cake, Pepper and Egg Brunch Bake, Creamy Pea Soup, and Cajun Mac and Cheese are ones I will certainly make again. One thing I found difficult was to sit and find just recipe I wanted to try. They all sound soooo good, but even worse for me was the beautiful photography that is throughout. Not only is the food photography superb, but the many farm photos that are sprinkled throughout the book were a tremendous distraction! This book is so beautiful, you could easily put it out as a coffee table book.

Full of stunning photographs, delicious recipes and information about farm life and cows, this book will delight anyone that loves good down home cooking, dreams about being on a farm or someone that just loves a beautiful cookbook to add to their collection. Celebrate National Dairy Month by purchasing your copy in June.

Dairy farmers work very hard and have a tremendous investment in their products and their dairy cows. It's a way of life that these farmers embrace and celebrate daily.

There are six sections in the book, starting with with Sunrise and ending at Sundown, plus some special events. I found numerous appetizing recipes ranging from great breakfast foods to family style entrees. Recipes come from dairy families and from the industry.

Ordinarily, I would say no thanks to this cookbook. There aren't enough pictures. But I thought the recipes just sounded so wonderful that I'm putting it on my to-buy list. I also think the kids might be interested in the different types of cows, and the pictures of the farms, since they are so different from the landscape around her. It also made me a little homesick. I remember watching Aunt Lena milk her cows, and nothing smells better than new milk.

This cookbook is filled with over 100 comfort food recipes covering breakfast lunch and supper. Also has stories about farm families. The pictures are wonderful and appetizing. There are six chapters each featuring a different kind of dairy cow. There are also cooking tips on how to cook with dairy successfully. Pick up this book for yourself or for a great gift idea. I would definitely recommend this cookbook.
