Good southern cooking
The recipes were fun to make and very southern. Book is worth having in your kitchen, including for yankees.

Homecooking that is sure to please your family
After watching Paula Deen on the Food Network and then visiting her restaurant, The Lady and Sons in Savannah, I knew this cookbook collection was a must for our home. Her recipes are simple and delicious. There is something in there for everyone with new creations that delight the palette. Her chicken recipes such as Chicken Georgia, Chicken and Dumplings and Chicken Casserole are easy and delicious. The Corn Casserole was probably the easiest dish I have ever prepared and was gone immediately. It is a great sign in my home if you do not have leftovers. I do not have leftovers when I cook with Paula Deen. The only downside is we are having to exercise more because of this delicious food. I figure that it is a small price to pay for having enjoyable sit down dinners with the family. I would definitely endorse this collection for any home. This would be a great gift this Christmas season.

some what disappointed
Paula's personality is great and sincere,but that is not why I bought this set. Fried chicken was dis-appointing,if you are from the south,you better have fried chicken down pat!!! Some ingredients hard to find, in certain recipes. I wish each recipe before it was published, was tried, by peers and leave out the one's that are marginal in value.

great day all mighty
FORGET what e brown says. What was this person thinking???? I will tell you that these are recipes that for the most part include ingredients that any southern cook will find on hand at any time. Simple, easy, and very tasty recipes that your family will love. If some appear to have a high fat content and that bothers you then use your brain and take measures accordingly. It really is that easy.

Paula's the BEST
To the lady who gave Paula's book a 1 star because it's all fattening & salty foods--puhleeze! She said she watches the show--do you really? Paula is a southern cook and southern cooking is full of rich food; she always says her favorite food is butter! Her cookbooks are fantastic; every time I make something to bring to the office or to a potluck, I use one of her recipes and they always get rave reviews and requests for the recipe. She's the tops!
