Magnolia Table, Volume 3: A Collection of Recipes for Gathering

I am making it a personal conviction to cook one complete meal from her cookbook each week until I have completed all of her recipes.. the choices of dishes suits our family perfectly, and it also inspires me to be creative and adventurous. My husband and I both have watched her cooking show and feel that if Joe can do it, we can do it. We just love her.

Bought 2 copies of this book, 1 as a gift and 1 for myself. Everything I have made out of it has been delicious. It's easy to follow and makes great family meals. My kids are very picky eaters and have loved all of these. Highly recommend the sun dried tomato chicken pasta.

I love these Magnolia cook books. They have so many good recipes and a good variety of breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, desserts. I go through and tab the ones I love and make. Highly recommend all 3 of Joanna Gaines cook books! I particularly always love the breads and desserts! Yum! Her scones are always delicious.

My 3rd book i have of her I need to collect more

Xmas present for mom. She loved it!

Obsessed with all of the recipes, i got the first book in the collection as a Christmas gift and had to get the other 2 after skimming through it, they do not disappoint. I love that all of them can be left on display too, I hate hiding away cookbooks because I forget about them, so it’s nice being able to have them on my counter while still having it look nice.

LOVE THE RECIPES!!! Book arrived damaged however.

I just received the Magnolia Table Volume 3 and I’m blown away by the number of recipes I actually want to make. I’ll have to update this review after making a bunch the next few weeks- but right off the bat, I’m impressed.I love her first two cookbooks- they’ve become staples in my kitchen and I know I have a high chance of success when I try a new recipe if it comes from Magnolia. I was concerned about this 3rd volume- what else could she have to share? would the recipes go rogue with ingredients and randomness, or would they stay the family classics and staples I’ve come to love from her? I’m so happy to be happy with this cookbook. I want to make a massive chunk of these recipes and I’m shocked by the sheer number of them. I feel like in an age where cookbooks are more like blogs on paper- the old fashioned value for your money in a book is long gone. It’s been replaced by flowering photos and background histories on every page.THIS is a cookbook and like her first two- she hits a mix of homemade breads, breakfasts, appetizers (I think this chapter is a standout- and am so happy it’s here because I need these more than ever!), entrees, and desserts.Not many are what I would consider “healthy,” but if you’ve been cooking from Magnolia already you know she doesn’t lean that way. She uses a lot of farm fresh ingredients, and I focus on the fact that spread amongst multiple servings a lot of her recipes aren’t say “Paula Dean level”. I’ll make substitutions where I think I should.I’ll also make sure to really prep for some as the ones I want to make first seem somewhat time consuming (looking at you spinach enchiladas and baked ziti bolognese) but they also look like I’ll lick the plate after- so it’s a trade off.
