How to be the perfect Mountain Mama: A cookbook for the modern Appalachian Family

Sunday dinners were so important to our family–it’s where we gathered together, despite our differences, and found common ground in the food we ate. This cookbook is filled with all kinds of goodies: from the best sweet tea ever–I’m not kidding, y'all!–to a mouth watering paper bag turkey that only takes four hours to cook, and all the way to what we do best: desserts. Good Lord, do we have some desserts for you to try.

This collection of recipes was put together with so much love, dedication, and nostalgia. We hope that you open this cookbook with your little ones at your feet, while making an apple pie for your next door neighbor. Or on a rainy Friday, whip up some broccoli cheddar soup (our favorite!) while sipping on a warm cup of coffee. Whatever you make, just know that each one of these recipes comes with a story from a family in a tiny town in Southern West Virginia–who are loud, opinionated, and really know how to cook food. So, make more than you need and save a place for us at the table.

Happy cooking!
