A Homestyle Welcome

One of the true culinary hallmarks of Southern Living is its strong connection to millions of devoted readers. That’s because over the past 42 years, the vast majority of our recipes have come straight out of Southern kitchens just like yours. We’ve learned from this special relationship that, among other things, you treasure classic, comforting, down-home recipes, which is why we’re so excited about the all-new Homestyle Cookbook.

With more than 400 delectable recipes, this cookbook is a virtual feast for any food lover. Jump right into Southern Heritage Treasures to discover iconic gems from the Lowcountry to the Chesapeake Bay to Cajun country and more. Be sure to reference the prep and cook times for each soul-soothing recipe to help you plan your schedule, as well as the specialty text boxes sprinkled throughout, which are chock-full of tips, secrets, and good ol’ Southern lore.

Don’t miss chapters such as Healthy Homestyle Cooking, Weeknight Family Meals, and Casual Entertaining Menus, which truly speak to the needs of today’s home cooks. As an added bonus, we’ve layered in our staff’s collective expertise on everything from lightening recipes and make-ahead suggestions to exclusive tips from our Test Kitchens. So whether you need a dish for a quick and easy supper or special weekend get-together, we hope this cookbook will be your guide.

Happy Cooking!
