Book Review- Valerie's Home Cooking

Amazon's description of the book:
As the current star of her Food Network show, Valerie's Home Cooking, and co-host of the network's Kids Baking Championship, as well as having spent years acting on television, Valerie Bertinelli has made a name for herself in households across America. But to really know Valerie, is to spend time in her kitchen.

Inspired by her family's cooking legacy, Valerie specializes in showing fans how to make dishes their own families will love that are for the heart and soul. As she often says, there's a story behind every recipe and Valerie shares them in this gorgeous cookbook, where home cooks will find more than 100 recipes that are easy to make and innovative--they're just as fresh, vibrant and down to earth as Valerie herself. Many of these classic comforting recipes have an original twist like Bloody Mary Tea Sandwiches, Lobster BLTs, Quick Rotisserie Chicken Gumbo, and S'mores Popcorn. These mouthwatering dishes will become your go-tos, whether you're having breakfast or lunch on your own, friends are joining for last-minute cocktails and small bites, or the whole family is coming together for a hearty dinner and dessert.

My Review:

I was so happy to receive this book to read and review.  I have been a fan of Valerie Bertinelli's since she was on the show "One Day at a Time".  I have watched Valerie's cooking show on the Food Network and new her cookbook would be very good.  
   This cookbook does not disappoint!! So far I have tried 3 recipes-- Tomato Soup with Grilled Cheese Croutons, Holiday Applesauce Cake and Slow-Cooker Red Beans and Rice. The recipes were delicious and easy to make.  I will definitely be making them again and adding them to my recipe file. 
   Even if you try a couple of the recipes you will very happy with this cookbook.  Thank you to Netgalley and the publishers of this cookbook for the opportunity to read and review this book for my honest review.
