Book Description

October 1, 1995 Chicken Soup for the Soul
The kitchen is the heart of the home. So much of life is lived around the family table: we tell stories, review the day, pass on traditions, grieve our losses, resolve differences, introduce new loves and celebrate holidays. In the preparing and sharing of meals we create deep memories that we carry with us forever.

In the flavor of Chicken Soup for the Soul, here is a joyful collection of heartwarming stories accompanied by mouthwatering recipes. Seasoned with heartfelt blessings, this marvelous book will help you revisit time-honored values and foster the sharing of meaningful conversation--and new recipes--at mealtime.



Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

The authors of the bestselling Chicken Soup for the Soul team up with cookbook author Diana von Welanetz Wentworth to nourish the body. Recipes for real chicken soup accompany others for pot roast and chocolate cinnamon rolls, barbecued beans and a myriad other comforting dishes. The recipes follow brief inspirational and/or sentimental sketches gathered in chapters with names like "Mom's Kitchen," "Love, Romance and Marriage" and "Men in the Kitchen." Drawing on contributions from cookbook authors and celebrities within the human potential movement?e.g., Jeanne Jones, Art Linkletter and Sam Keen?each feel-good recollection serves as a parable of a venerable quality, e.g., patience (Debbie's Creamed Corn) and appreciation for what one has (No-Depression Cake). The authors note that recipes have not been adjusted to make them "nutritionally correct" in the belief that "their love content outweighs their fat content." 50,000 first printing in cloth; 500,000 in paper.

From Library Journal

Chicken Soup for the Soul (Health Communications, 1993) and A 2nd Helping of Chicken Soup for the Soul (Health Communications, 1995) by self-esteem gurus Canfield and Mark Victor Hansen have been on the best sellers lists for months. Now they've enlisted cookbook author Diana von Welanetz Wentworth for the Chicken Soup for the Soul Cookbook (don't worry, they decided against an all-chicken-soup cookbook): "deeply touching and humorous stories centered around food," with recipes. Touching or just sappy, these collections of Reader's Digest-style anecdotes have found an audience, who will be eagerly awaiting the cookbook.

5.0 out of 5 stars A cookbook for the kitchen and the soul!, May 4, 1999
This review is from: Chicken Soup for the Soul Cookbook: 101 Stories with Recipes from the Heart (Hardcover)
If you like the Chicken Soup For the Soul books, you will want to have the cookbook as well. This is your chance to really experience the stories as you read them and then try your hand at the rceipes. I can almost smell the aroma of fresh bread or pies as they are cooking. I have tried several already and have gotten rave reviews for the food, but it is even more fun to tell the story to the family as they enjoyed the dish. I am already thinking of one recipe that I would like to share myself and I know as you read and try the recipes, you'll have one to share also.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good cookbook but a little out dated., December 17, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Chicken Soup for the Soul Cookbook: 101 Stories with Recipes from the Heart (Hardcover)
It was an excellent cookbook. It was a little outdated but can anything in cooking really be outdated? Great for the price.

5.0 out of 5 stars A rare and delicious treat!, August 25, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Chicken Soup for the Soul Cookbook: 101 Stories with Recipes from the Heart (Hardcover)
This is the rarest of delicious treats: a book filled with tempting recipes, plus stories to warm your heart even when you're not in the kitchen cooking! It is one of the best gifts to give someone you love, no matter the reason...or season. I believe it will be the gift book of choice for a wedding shower because the recipes span all traditions and appeal to the novice or experienced cook. I've learned my lesson: now I keep several copies on hand when I need the perfect present for someone I treasure, and don't have time to shop.
