I know, I know. Paula Deen. People have a lot of feelings about Paula Deen (most of my feelings are less related to everything that went down last year [was it last year?] and more to do with the fact that she came out with the fact that she has Type 2 Diabetes JUST IN TIME to rake in some money from teaming up with a T2 drug company), but this cookbook is adorable. Just adorable.
All of the pictures are hand-drawn (well, they look hand-drawn), and they’re just so cute I can’t even stand it. (Although she looks terrifying on the cover, but what can you do?)
I know I’ve posted stuffed shells before, but this is a more kid-friendly version than the previous one — it’s just cheese rather than the sausage and spinach the first recipe included. (Both recipes are great, though!)
