Parks and Recreation: The Official Cookbook

Food and Parks and Recreation, two of the most wonderful things, have combined and graced us with Parks and Recreation: The Official Cookbook! This one-of-a-kind cookbook contains everything you’d expect from the show. Just check out one of the initial pages of Ron with bacon and eggs and you can’t help but be hooked already.

Each chapter covers a different food category and has a clever name, like “If It Doesn’t Have Meat, It’s a Snack” and “Why Would Anyone Eat Anything Besides Breakfast Food?”. Hi-def pictures, quotes, brief summaries that tie the food to the show and characters, and food inclusive to most dietary restrictions can be found within these pages.

Just skimming through the pages makes me miss this classic show, but when I actually sit down to read it I notice some scrumptious recipes that would taste wonderful, like bacon-wrapped shrimp, calzones, and a waffle sundae! Each category contains nine to ten food choices, with recipes that are simple to follow that will make both your heart and your belly happy!
