Expert Reviews


What reviewers liked

Overall, I found the book is worth its weight in gold—if you’re looking for some simple classic meals, and for a wholesome way to splurge once in a while in your own kitchen.
The recipes have easy to follow instructions and, for the most part, require common ingredients that are easy to find.

What reviewers didn't like

Magnolia Table doesn't list calorie counts or other nutritional info in its pages.
Lots of gorgeous photos of food made with canned ingredients, store bought mixes, condensed soup, etc. Nothing I'll be purchasing or cooking from!
