Beef Recipe

Miss Vickie's Big Book of Pressure Cooker Recipes
by Vickie Smith
Amazon Price: $15.61
Customer Review: Love this book!!
Finally, a pressure cooker book that has lots of choices!
Really good description of pressure cooking in general.
Turning into a "go to" cookbook for me. (and that is high praise!)
Just made the Mexican Chicken soup for dinner and got rave reviews from the whole family. Italian style Beef Roast braised in red wine on the menu for tomorrow. Looking forward to cooking my way through this book!
Don't hesitate! Worth every penny.

Morton's Steak Bible: Recipes and Lore from the Legendary Steakhouse
by Klaus Fritsch, Mary Goodbody
Amazon Price: $19.80
Customer Review: I bought the book hoping to learn more about cooking steaks. This book does not live up to the name "Steak Bible". As another reviewer pointed out, there are only a handful of pages about steaks. The other recipes look interesting and worthy of a try. In my opinion, the book is worth half the price. The other half is paid for the "Morton" name.

The New Steak: Recipes for a Range of Cuts plus Savory Sides
by Cree LeFavour
Amazon Price: $13.57
Customer Review: This has become my favorite meat cook book. The recipes are easy to follow and Ms. LeFavour has come up with uniquely creative and tasty side dishes. Aside from covering the traditional cuts, she focuses on some of the less popular, but tasty and inexpensive cuts, such as hanger steak, flank steak, strip steak and flat iron steak. We just bought seven more copies to give away to friends and family over Christmas.
Great recipes to fit every budget!

The Healthy Beef Cookbook: Steaks, Salads, Stir-fry, and More - Over 130 Lusc...
by American Dietetic Association (ADA), National Cattleman's Beef Association, Richard Chamberlain, Betsy Hornick
Amazon Price: $14.93
Customer Review: I love, love, love this book. As someone who can't eat a lot of dairy and loves food and taste, I have to say this is a great cookbook. It seems like most recipes either have cheese or cream in them. These recipes have a lot of fresh ingredients and taste delicious. I love the sun dried tomato meatloaf (best I've ever had), the tortilla soup, and the chili is great (adding some bacon makes it even better...less healthy, but it is good!). Our kids love these recipes, too. It's definitely a staple cookbook that everyone should have.

Simply Israel - A Collection of Recipes from the People of Israel
by T. Gila Levine
Amazon Price:
Customer Review: As Israel is a melting pot of many different cultures, T. Gila Levine did a great job of compiling recipes of almost every ethnic group in Israel as well as typical Israeli recipes that are well-loved around the world.

Some of the recipes come with wonderful pictures of the dishes so that you can see what they look like.

It is a wonderful gift to friends and family who love Israel and it's food which I highly recommend.
