This Cookbook is packed with 472 recipes, it has the feel of a trusted friend with a guided experienced hand! --Stephanie Williams, Favorite Recipe Press
The Muffin Lady strikes again! Sharing Mountain Recipes is Randi Lee Levin's second cookbook. Her first cookbook Baking at High Altitude; The Muffin Lady s Old Fashioned Recipes won the Colorado Independent Publishers Association award, the Best First Cookbook in English, USA and then the Best First Cookbook in the World 2004 award. Her latest book completely lives up to the quality of the first cookbook. As a person who is dating an Italian chef, has several subscriptions to cooking magazines and owns over 100 cookbooks that have been read from cover to cover, I found Sharing Mountain Recipes to be one of the best and most comprehensive cookbooks I have ever read. The Muffin Lady incorporates sound advice on cooking techniques at all altitudes, wonderful recipes and puts a lot of love into her work. You will feel like you are sitting in her kitchen trying out recipes with her when you read this. This cookbook is for all level of cooks. Levin has basic recipes for starter cooks and breaks down even her most complex recipes so that even the most novice cook will be able to create these wonderful recipes. I was also impressed with the fact that she is conscious about different dietary needs. She usually has several variations of each recipe, the original in all its fattening glory, the heart healthy version and the diabetes friendly version. As the Executive Director of the Diabetes Foundation of Rhode Island I would not hesitate to recommend this book to families that are adjusting to a diabetes friendly menu (if they promised to use the healthy recipe variations!). Sharing Mountain Recipes is broken down into several sections including comfort foods, breakfast, lunch, dinner and of course, dessert. The Ultimate Comfort Food section is full of favorite mac n cheese, mashed potato and chocolate recipes.. This book will make a great gift for the Holidays, engagement parties and showers. It would also make a wonderful host gift when I am going to someone else s home for dinner. --Cherie Fisher/Reader Views
. This delightful cookbook is filled with comfort foods, salads, desserts, soups, baked goods, roasts,cooking tips and a sprinkling of poetry. Her own sought after recipesare mingled with special recipes from friends and family. More important than all the delicious recipe treats, is the love, friendship and antidotes mixed in for good measure. There are sugar free recipes and low fat and low cholesterol recipes and glorious color illustrations. This wonderful book even includes substitutions for those who favor gluten free or dairy free alternatives, in addition to an ingredient conversion list. Words simply can't describe this delightful cookbook experience. --Susan Doyle, Kitchen Project: Household Tips

About the Author
Randi developed her passion for baking, cooking and sharing information from her Grandmothers as a young child in Philadelphia, where she was often requested to bake for family and friends while growing up. 31 years ago, after moving to Colorado, she discovered that many cherished recipes needed adjustments, accommodating them to higher altitudes. Through lots of trial, testing and tasting she learned the necessary adjustments to the delight and requests of many who were offered the opportunity to indulge in her treats. Earning several graduate degrees, Randi taught and counseled youth for almost 20 years, until a rare disease caused a career change. 16 years ago she began her endeavors as a Culinary Professional and High Altitude Food Specialist while preparing, developing and delivering treats around her hometown and Denver Colorado simply for something to do, while adjusting to her medical disorder. The inspiration to write Cookbooks came in response to the consistent requests from customers and friends for this or that recipe, as well as the How s and Ways she successfully accomplishes such delicious feats at high altitude. Today she writes about everyday foods and the memories associated with them, simply to share requested information and flavors with others. Her endeavors have honored her with International recognition, as she is a recipient of Gourmand s Best in the World Cookbook Award, as well as an EVVY Award.

This review is from: Sharing Mountain Recipes: The Muffin Lady's Everyday Favorites (Hardcover)
Living at 7500 is wonderful but presents problems with cooking. This is a great book with good re4cipes. I also recomend "Pie in the Sky" and "Chocolate Snowball" - they both have altitude adjustments.
