The Simple and the Elegant,
By wogan "the book reader" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Neelys' Celebration Cookbook: Down-Home Meals for Every Occasion (Hardcover)
Pat and Gina Neely, who have done their own food show, a previous cookbook and opened a restaurant - have made a cookbook to take you through a year's celebrations It has about 146 recipes, many with the kicked up flavors that include red peppers and tabasco sauce (which you could leave out or reduce, if you are adverse to them).The celebrations are divided by month and include menus for occasions such as; New Year's Eve, Super Bowl Sunday, a 21st birthday, Valentine's Day, Welcome home , March Madness, Movie night, Easter, Mother's Day, Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Girl's Night, Labor Day, Back to School, and of course Christmas. Each holiday has a menu and the recipes. A personal introduction is given for each section and also a few sentences about each recipe. Serving sizes are given and an icon shows if it takes more than 1 hour for preparation. Many of the recipes that are written for frying, like the deep-fried Cornish game hens also have an alternative on baking them - a really considerate addition for those who do not like frying or are trying to cut down on fried foods. There is help when needed, such as Pat's guide to deep frying. Recipes are also listed by course; although you can look them up in the index it would have been nice to have included the page numbers. An index lists by type of dish, name and main ingredient. We have already tried the Hoppin' John and it is the best recipe for that, that I have run across, as is the hot crab and mushroom dip. Pat and Gina also list 10 top party hints. The one for guys begins sensibly enough with #1. If Mama ain't happy, ain't nobody happy. Some of the menus are for simple gathering, some for more elegant, but what is wonderful, is the emphasis on family and friends and gathering together to enjoy some good food. 9 of 9 people found the following review helpful

The Neely's Return With Recipes & Moments That Make You Want To Celebrate,
By C. A. Webb "Conversations Book Club" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Neelys' Celebration Cookbook: Down-Home Meals for Every Occasion (Hardcover)
One thing you can always expect from Neelys is their ability to combine great food with family, friends and moments you are not sure to forget. In their latest book THE NEELYS' CELEBRATION COOKBOOK they take us through each month of the year and share recipes that are just right for any event or occasion you might be planning for.Written in their voice with a beautiful collection of photos of the couple and those closest to them, the book is more than just about food. You can feel the love that goes into each recipe as well as the love as it is portrayed through those preparing it. There's no wonder that the couple has found success in doing something they enjoy and are great at and have been able to share it with all of us. This is one of those books I can see members of the family not only using together in the kitchen but just gathering around to thumb through looking at the pictures. It is just that kind of book that you want to share, something that the authors know alot about. Presented with loving care, THE NEELYS' CELEBRATION COOKBOOK gets you in the mood to celebrate. 3 of 3 people found the following review helpful
