Do you own any cookbooks? Have you ever prepared food via instructions from one? If so, what?

Yes, we have more than a few but truth be told we only use a couple of them. Recipe for red beans and rice comes to mind. And cheese cake. Lately we've been getting recipes from the internet.

I have used a few recipes here and there one time I made beef ghoulash from a recipe book and it was pretty good!

I have several and use them for desserts and pasta salads most of the time. Usually they just inspire ideas. I won't be buying many more with all the great recipe sites online. Plus, the library has so many that I love to look through.

I have a cupcake book that I keep meaning to bake something from. I'll get around to it. I'm good at baking, so I'll prob. tweak the recipes a bit.

I don't have any cookbooks. Don't need any - all the cooking instructions are on the back of the microwave package.

Tony, it's pretty funny you bumped this topic today. Early this morning (in preparation for my rummage sale) I went through my cookbook collection and simply can not get rid on one. I certainly don't use most of them, but just can't part with them.

I too have an extensive cook book collection, and yes I have used many recipes in them. But then I am older than anyone here. I also like to read them for ideas.

I have so many cookbooks that I couldn't begin to guess how many. I never use them.
Someone recently bought me a New Mexico "pepper" cookbook and it is very interesting. There are a couple of recipes I'd like to try, but . . .
