Summary: Delicious and easy party food
Review: I have an extensive collection of cookbooks. I review, on average, four books before preparing any recipe. I purchased this book one year ago during the Spoleteo Festival. This cookbook surfaces more than most when preparing for any party. I have also found the "Recipes Receipts" to be as complementary. We often visit South Carolina and are very fond of their dishes and presentation.

Summary: Delicious and easy party food
Review: I use this book almost exclusively when making munchies for parties and gatherings. There hasn't been a single time that I've cooked from this collection that someone hasn't asked me if I could give them a copy of the recipe for a dish. I also have a gaggle of vegetarian friends, and this book is chock-full of veggie-friendly recipes, which makes everyone happy. I have dozens of cookbooks, but this one is, by far, my favorite.

Summary: Chock full of great recipes.
Review: I'm always looking for hors d'oeuvres recipes, so I bought this book sight unseen and am sure glad I did. What a collection! And the ones I've tried have been great. Don't hesitate--buy it!

Summary: Endless Choices for Parties and Gatherings
Review: My mother swears by all the Junior League Cookbooks which she always relies on for parties and gatherings. This was one of the first of many I tried!!!! Filled with endless choices of creative and easy to prepare starters including cold and hot plates and some ample first courses such as shirimp, crab cakes, cheesecakes, quiches and more--All the ingredients are easy to find and common to most well stocked pantries- so you always can find something at the last minute to prepare!! Also, many of these receipes can be made in even less time if you use pre-chopped veggies,pre-cut meats, etc.
The only thing I am not crazy about is that many of the dips and cold startes use commercial cream cheese, sour cream or similar products to create the base of the receipe--just doesn't seem to heart healthy to me...But none the less, they are all yummy in the end if you don't focus on that.
Whether for work gathering, faimly and friends you will be cetain to find one or many starter you can rely on again and again for stress free entertaining!

Summary: Fantastic Appetizers
Review: The dozen or more recipes tried from this book have been terrific. I am primarily interested in appetizers that can be made ahead, frozen and re-heated. A large number of the recipes fit this criteria. I have bought several copies as gifts for friends based on the recipes I have tried and I've enjoyed this book as much as I enjoy my new beverage of choice. Made from 100% organic soy, taste just like coffee and no caffeine. Finally, I got rid of that wired up feeling all day and feeling great. Look for it on the net by googling "s o yfee".
A wide variety of outstanding "receipts" from elegant to casual. A collection of recipes that allows the hostess [or host] to theme a party or go eclectic. This book has the original party mix that includes Cheerios. Enjoy!!!

Summary: My Favorite Party Recipes
Review: The Party Recipes from the Charleston Junior League is my favorite cookbook. Of all the cookbooks I own I always buy the ones that have lots of pictures. I usually like to see what it looks like first before I make anything. This cookbook was the exception, as it does not have pictures of the food. I looked through the cookbook and immediately saw at least 30 recipes that I knew I wanted to make. I couldn't put it down, as there was such a collection of recipes that I always wanted to try. Whenever I need a recipe for a party or gathering, this cookbook is always the first one that I pick up. I have never seen so many party favorites in one book. I also like the short comments with each recipe from the recipe contributor. The people of Charleston, South Carolina know how to throw a successful party. I'm glad they shared their most popular recipes in this book.

Summary: A True Party Assistant
Review: This is geared towards party recipes--- from drinks to demitast soup to finger deserts to all kinds of dips and snack mixes. Many will find here the ole reliables, and as I can determine, just about all of them--from Party Mix fame to Wassail to many ways of serving crab and shrimp dip. I particularly am attracted to the unusual, and there is plenty of that here. I enjoy such as Escargots A La San Diego, Goat Cheese Tortillas, and Papaya Stuffed with Curried Crab. This will assist those looking for some easy but delicious things to serve the party guests that will bring raves.
