The Recipe Girl Cookbook

Standing out in the crowded world of food bloggers may not be easy, but it's what Lori Lange does best. She created RecipeGirl.com in 2006, and the site has since grown to more than a million views per month, not to mention 11,700 subscribers, 17,500 Twitter followers, and 21,000 Facebook fans. Lori is very well respected in the world of elite bloggers and has relationships with superstars such as Ree Drummond (Pioneer Woman), Bakerella, and Jenny Flake (Picky Palate), among others, all of whom are likely to review and support the book when it's published. Lori is a contributor to GoodBite.com, a partner with HerChannel.com and Blogher, a "Saveur Site We Love," and a Babble top-100 mommy blogger, she attends all of the biggest food blogging conferences around the country, and unlike many food bloggers who tend to remain behind the scenes, she has been extending her brand to television by making local morning show appearances. Also unlike most food bloggers, Lori already has working relationships with several corporations which might provide promotional support for her cookbook including Kraft, Pepperidge Farm, Sam's Club, and Tabasco. Just like on the popular Recipe Girl web site, Lori's recipes are no nonsense and great tasting, the kind of food the whole family will love. You won't find any unhealthy, processed ingredients here. Recipe Girl is a resource for people with busy lives but who still want to eat well, both in terms of quality and flavor. There are 150 recipes for every course or occasion which the whole family will love -- Banana Scones with Cinnamon Glaze, Bacon and Corn Griddle Cakes, Buffalo Chicken Wraps, Grilled Balsamic Skirt Steak with Corn Salsa, Chicken and Black Bean Enchiladas with Mango Enchilada Sauce, Creamy Skillet Baked Penne Pasta, and Cherry-Limemade Pound Cake, to name just a few. Nearly every recipe includes tips and variations for when you really want to impress your dinner guests, and throughout the book you'll find advice for making recipes gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian, and more. There's even a whole chapter of menus for special occasions. This is the book fans of RecipeGirl.com have been waiting for.
