June 2021 The Great Big Cookbook Club Roundup

As our members know, each month we offer at least four cooking options in our Eat Your Books Cookbook Club. There are other fun cookbook clubs around the interwebs and we’d like to highlight those for those members who might want to cook or bake something other than our choices. 

We want to get this information out to you so you can prepare and we will update this post when we have any further information. 

Eat Your Books Cookbook Club June selections

June is a throwback month: Repeat any of your favorite books and online options from 2020 and 2021. Those 2020-2021 options can be found here. Please remember you must provide the cookbook title/option in your post for approval.

We are now voting for our July through September options. Click on this Google Doc link to cast your vote for your top three favorite options in each of the three categories: Main, Baking, Veg. We will still have an online option each month.

See this post for our 2021 year-longbooks.
