It is amazing!! It is one of the most beautiful cookbooks I think I've ever seen. Seriously.
It's HUGE! And heartwarming. And inspirational. And made me teary eyed. (cookbooks shouldn't make people tear up, but this one did.)
Some recipes are incredibly simple. (like chocolate dipped marshmallows.) And some are much fancier, but of course Ree lays it all out in a way that lets you know you can do it too. (like prime rib. and quail.)
I have loved all of her cookbooks, but this one is just on a whole new level. It will be loved and used for years and years.
It covers every possible holiday and is full of tips for timing and making your meal planning easier.

Barn Kitty jumped up while I was trying to snap photos.

Lilo just wanted the food on the pages to come to reality so she could eat it all.

For Christmas I just want a big bowl of Burgundy Mushrooms. No meat required. Just shrooms.

And maybe a side of guacamole. Because there's never enough guac in my life. Ever.

And I'll finish with Caramel Apple Sweet Rolls. Because they have fruit in them, and I'm all about having a healthy balanced diet.

And guess what? Ree has agreed to sign a cookbook and ship it straight to you!
How cool is that?!
As great as that is, we will also include one of our new Christmas ornaments from The Rusted Chain! (you choose Santa or Snowman.)

So you can win a signed cookbook from The Pioneer Woman and a custom ornament from The Rusted Chain!!

I love ritz crackers with PB, dipped in chocolate. They are easy and amazing. I would love to win this giveaway. :)
Standing Rib Roast! Christmas is the only time we have this and it is so yummy!
Pinned this!
Eggnog, although that is a drink and not food. Hope it still counts :-))) Our family LOVES watching the Pioneer Woman on Saturdays. My 7 year old recently suggested that Ree could come live with us and do all the cooking, I would be in charge of cleaning. Apparently, my cooking isn't up to par which means I NEED this cookbook! L0L! If my name is drawn she really needs to sign the book to my boys, they would be thrilled!!
Aaaaaand tweeted this!

Favorite Holiday Food - Oh, the soft ginger cookies, I love the tastes of the season!
How to choose just one? I love everything! I'll go with the extra loaded (with calories) mashed potatoes that we make every year, and only at Christmas, because they are that special. ;)
My Mom's fudge...she's beem gone 14 years and I still miss her. And I still can't make the fudge taste like she did.
Roasted marshmallows from our fireplace.
Candy Cane Cookies
I love Sugar Cream Pie, an Indiana favorite. Its a blast back to my childhood when my brother and I would fight for the last slice.
a recipe my mom had, and we only eat at Christmas. Its called "cinnamon candy apples". You dice apples (you can even use canned, drained) and pour into whatever size casserole dish, Pour some red hot cinnamon candies over them, let set for an hr. and then bake at 375 until bubbly and apples are done. Its so good, and reminds me of my mom, who has passed.
I love Peanut Blossom cookies! I only make them at Christmas so I always look forward to the!m
Idk that i can pick just one Christmas food. I love cornbread dressing, fudge, and pumpkin pie.

My favorite Christmas food is cookies. Any kind will do, but particularly ginger snaps and snickerdoodles. And I think pumpkin pie is still considered Christmas food although it's also Thanksgiving food.

I would flip with joy to win this giveaway! My mom's side of the family is 100% Italian, and we make homeade cannoli for thanksgiving. The rolled cookie vs the pasta. So cannolis, dipped in shaved chocolate w/a marashino cherry at the end does it for me;)

It is impossible for me to pick one favorite holiday food. I'd have to go with the peanut brittle my mother-in-law makes. ADDICTIVE! And she always makes an extra pan just for me! <3

Grandma's fruitcake, no kidding.
My favorite Christmas food is my Grandma's butter ring cookies. I could (and possibly have) eaten the entire jar.
My favorite Christmas food are Toroires (not sure if the spelling is right- but that's how my grandma spelled it lol). They're anise flavored, glazed doughy cookies. Every year she made me a tin of them. I was fortunate enough to get her recipe so now I carry on the tradition of making them at Christmas. :)

My favorite Christmas food is pie!!!
Mom's Mini HaHas. Every winter, about early December Mom would get us to start cracking and peeling pecans. Then she would start her shopping for all the dried fruits and a 1/5 of JD. Mini HaHas are a cookie that is much like fruit cake with a meringue that has a pecan half all baked on top. So basically you bake the fruit cake style cookie. Then make fresh meringue. When the cookies have cooled you dollop the meringue on top, stick a pecan half in and pop them back into the oven for the pecan and meringue to toast. Mom is in her 80s now and not in the best of health. We don't get Mini HaHas anymore. Maybe I should start making them for my grandsons. Hmmmm.... I watch The pioneer Woman every Saturday. I've seen ads for this cookbook. I'd love to own a signed copy!!! It would just make my day, week, month, year!
Love honey baked ham and roasted vegetables! Honestly, love the smells created by the food cooking more than the good itself!
Old Fashioned Christmas Fudge
Bubble loaf on Christmas morning!
Well I love all the Christmas food that is made like Ham, turkey (im a meat kind of girl) but then I love all the sweets, peanut butter balls, choc eclair!!
My pb balls I make and ship to my brother. It's a tradition :)
My hubby and I make the bestest ever..white chocolate reeses peanut butter fudge...a must during the holiday...Would love, love, this recipe book..and either of the ornaments from The Rusted Chain....Thanks for this give away...Blessings!
My mom makes homemade flour tortillas, cuts them into pieces, and fries them. They go straight from the oil into cinnamon and sugar, and are called panasitos. Like an elephant ear, but better :)
