Everyone, it seems, has a favorite celebrity; Trisha Yearwood is very popular, and fans always like learning a little about her. Trisha has released an excellent cookbook, Trisha's Kitchen: Easy Comfort Food for Friends and Family. Not only does this cookbook contain dozens of mouthwatering recipes, but it includes pictures, vignettes, and comments regarding her and her family; it gives the average person some insight as to who Trisha Yearwood really is and her lifestyle. While some celebrities are non-cooks who write cookbooks with the help of someone who really knows how to cook, it is evident in this book that Trisha really is an excellent and innovative cook on her own merits.

The recipes are written in a traditional form, and are succinct and easy to follow. Most are quite easy and can be successfully prepared by cooks from beginning to advanced. There are beautiful photographs of most of the recipes, and the recipes actually turn out picture perfect.

Most would expect basic country or southern dishes, since Yearwood is a country music star, but she has expanded her repertoire to include some trendy and new dishes. The cookbook includes traditional southern dishes as well as some new ones, and a few from her famous husband Garth Brooks (who also wrote the forward). Most readers will find that every time they look at this excellent cookbook, they will add a new recipe or two to their “must make soon” queue.

If you happen to like Trisha Yearwood, you’ll love learning about her actual personality and family. This is a fun, well-written cookbook with recipes that will appeal to almost everyone. It is a fun one to have on a cookbook shelf or to have on display in your kitchen.
