Rainbow Cookbook!

The girls organization I help with has put together a cookbook to raise funds.
This is a great cookbook a la the tradition of church cookbooks.
There are 476 pages of recipes, with variations on popular dishes and TONS of really good stuff.
There isn't a lot of frou-frou stuff (I hate to get a cookbook and they call for things that a normal person would never have on-hand at home), it's all easy to make. I can already see why many of these things are probably traditions for carry-in dinners and working moms who want fresh food without hours of prep work. The recipes come from all over the US, so there is a lot of variety in styles of dishes and ingredients.
My personal favorites (aside from my own contributions): Puppy Chow (Chex and chocolate chips mixed with peanut butter), Mushroom Bisque, Boston Baked Corn, Ghost on a Stick (pear halves dipped in white chocolate), and my sister's TO DIE FOR Chocolate Cream Cheese Icing.
The cover is very colorful, there are information pages/equivalency charts. It's obvious a LOT of work went into this. Totally worth the $20, you'll actually USE these recipes!
To order your cookbook: Send a check for $20 (made out to Rainbow Cookbook - IORG) to:
International Order of Rainbow for Girls
PO Box 1868
McAlester, OK 74502
Be sure to include the name and address where you want your cookbook sent.
