A Taste of the Women Who Built Prairie Homes
Prairie Girls Cook takes readers into the kitchens of Saskatchewan and Alberta during the 1950s and 1960s, preserving recipes and memories from a generation of women who made food an essential part of family and community life.
Inspired by Renee Darlene Bohun’s grandmother, Rheta Nickle, and mother, Gail Bohun, the book gathers cherished family recipes, contributions from friends and treasures from vintage community cookbooks. From casseroles and homemade breads to pies, desserts and prairie favorites, each recipe offers a glimpse into a different time. It is a celebration of heritage, hospitality and the enduring connections created around the kitchen table.
