Many of the recipes in Country Music’s Greatest Eats: Recipes and Riffs From Country’s Biggest Stars with Tanner Latham, presented by CMT (Oxmoor House, $24.95) have been handed down in families to the country stars. Given the huge Southern influence, you’d think these recipes would be full of butter and all fried. Not so. While I wouldn’t say all of them are healthy, most are not loaded with fat.
Stars featured include Amy Grant, Alan Jackson, Wynonna Judd, Scott McCreery, the Oak Ridge Boys, Randy Travis, Chris Young, Miranda Lambert, Zac Brown Band and more.
It will appeal to anyone looking for good, homestyle comfort food. There are lots of Southern-influenced recipes here along with a few other ethnic styles thrown in. These recipes are suitable for all skill levels.
