I am hosting a dinner party and you are invited! There is also a really cool prize involved with this dinner party. You are going to want it – I promise!!
As much as I’d love to have each and every one of you over to my house for dinner – wouldn’t that be fun!? – it’s just not possible.
So I’d like to invite you to a virtual dinner party. And you get to help plan the menu.
The only requirement is that the recipe has to come from Pioneer Woman. You do know Pioneer Woman, don’t you?
Pioneer Woman is a ROCK STAR blogger. This woman gets thousands of comments on her posts, was recently featured in People Magazine, the Bonnie Hunt show and just came out with her own cookbook! She is my idol!
Over the last few years of blogging I have tried lots of her recipes. I have yet to find one that disappoints.
This past week I was in an apple mood so I baked up her Apple Cake in an Iron Skillet. I love cooking anything in my cast iron skillet!
It was yummy and delicious and perfect with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, just like Pioneer Woman promised. As good as the cake was I must admit my favorite Pioneer Woman apple dessert is her Apple Dumplings - oh my gosh!! They are amazing!
To join my dinner party all you have to do is let me know what your favorite Pioneer Woman recipe is. Just leave a comment to let me know. If you haven’t made any Pioneer Woman recipes yet go on over and pay her a visit and look through her recipe archives. You’ll be drooling soon. Then come back and leave a comment and let me know which one you are going to try!
I can’t wait to see what some of your favorites are.
Now to the prize part. With the help of random.org, one of you will be selected to receive a FREE copy of Pioneer Woman’s new cookbook!!
Of course, the cookbook is full of amazing Pioneer Woman photography. Step by step photos of her amazing food. Many of my favorite PW recipes are in the book as well as several new ones I am looking forward to trying. I think the first one on the To Try list will be the Breakfast Bowls – what a fun way to serve breakfast and clean out your frig!!
So just leave a comment sharing your favorite PW recipe and keep your fingers crossed. To earn an extra entry, just blog about my dinner party or share it on Facebook. Come back and leave another comment with the link to your post!
Here are some of our family PW favorites!

How can you NOT love her Chocolate Sheet Cake? It is so good, I have a hard time sharing it. We also really like the Yogurt-Marmalade Cake. Much better than it sounds, really. And the Blackberry Cobbler, part 2. Sounds like I should bring dessert, huh?
Everyone also really enjoys Chicken Spaghetti, Bacon Wrapper Jalapenos, MM’s Favorite Sandwich, and so many more. PW has so many wonderful recipes and they are a good mixture of down-home recipes and things you would make for a special night with company. I can always find something great at PW Cooks.
Thanks so much!!
I just made her pumpkin muffins last night…they are SO yummy!!!
I love PW’s recipes. My favorite would have to be the Apple Dumplings and the Chicken Spaghetti. Both are the ultimate comfort food!
My favorite is her caramel apple pie. So delicious!
My daughter makes her apple dumplings and they are the BEST and so easy!! We also like Pastor Ryans Monkey bread too!
Wonderful contest…hard to pick my favorite one…there are sooooooo many!!!
The last few weeks I have made her jalepeno bacon thingies
a number of times and they are always a big hit! But you know I like the Crash Hot Potatoes too! Then there is….
Her tre leches cake…is SO yummy! And the photos that show it step by step are AMAZING!
I have made several of her recipes but the one I have memorized now is her mashed potatoes. SO good and they come out perfectly every time.
I love them all!!!
Simple yet wonderful
Smashed Potatoes
I just made her “Coffee Cake, Literally” last night and almost fell to the floor when I took the first bite, it was incredible!!
Oooo! My family loves her Crash Hot Potatoes. I make them everytime we have Honey-Barbecue wings, which I do in a skillet now. It’s a favorite meal.
I think the Apple recipes look awesome!! Gotta make them now. Thanks for all your great recipes. My family loves your sharing them.
Thanks for the great giveaway opportunity!
Julie
I’ve been dying to try those apple dumplings
I personally love her baked fudge and her dump cake!
Her Pot Roast recipe from the website is absolutely the BEST!
The bacon-wrapped crackers are yummy!!!
Thanks for the chance to win!
Crash Hot Potatoes! We love these! I add a sprinkle of parm cheese on top. Soooo good!
I think our favorite is the apple pie!
I became aware of the Pioneer Woman site through, Your Homebased Mom. (thank you) The recipe I have made the most has to be Hot Crash Potatoes! They have now become a favorite of one of my daughters and my sister loves them too. So many options……..not enough time!
I’ve made the apple cake in a skillet too, my kids loved to help with this recipe and it was super easy and a lot of fun. We also like the chicken tenders recipe.
I’m so excited for this cookbook!
Oh my, so many wonderful choices! Everythign I have made from PW is fantastic. The two PW recipes I make every week are crash hot potatoes and The Bread aka Pastor Ryan bread. YUM! As always, fabulous give away.
yummy!! We love her roasted red pepper pasta sauce and the recipe for braised chicken~
I love her Pasta Carbonara and her flashback 1981- Holiday Bacon Appetizers those little guys one me a prize at our friends’ Halloween party this year.
I love everything I make from her.
Everything of hers is great! I think one of my favorites is Penne a la Betsy I made the other night!
Love the corn and wild rice casserole also a cabbage and noodle asian salad makes a huge amount great for our block party though.
mmm I am getting hungry
I love Pioneer Woman’s Marinated Flank Steak. It’s wonderful! I just met
Ree (P/W) at the Tattered Cover in Denver. She’s very nice!
This summer I served the Crash Box potatoes to my family. They loved them and started making them at their own homes. We probably made them an average of twice a week all summer!
I’d love to come to the dinner party!
I’m going to have to try the “Coffee Cake, Literally!” My mouth was seriously watering just reading about it. I love all the photos of each step too! For someone who’s more visual like me, as opposed to saavy in the kitchen, it really helps! 
In our house, it’s all about the Stuffed Mushrooms, baby! Oh, and I just saw her Decadent Hot Chocolate recipe and am seriously intrigued.
I’m getting ready to make the Peanut Butter Pie for a dinner party next weekend. I can hardly wait!
I’ve made the Steak Salad from the Pioneer Woman website before….and my husband loves the dressing……it’s made with ginger and it’s perfect for summer. I was just at her page the other day and am set to make the Beef with Broccoli – - much more healthy than my local Chinese take-out.
I love her chicken spaghetti recipe — yummy! What a great giveaway!
Our family favorite from Pioneer Woman is her Crash Hot Potatoes. We make them all the time! But there are so many others I love too….it’s so hard to pick one!
Love it! I love her pasta – so this the dish for me.
I love her Hot Crash Potatoes. I make them 2-3 times a month.
We love the Crash Hot Potatoes. The new cookbook is on my “Things I Would Like” list. Looking forward to trying more yummy recipes.
I agree with you: the apple dumplings. I was actually just looking at that recipe again yesterday as I have a bunch of apple from the orchard that I need to do something with. P.S. I think you are great too! Just made your dulce de leche with apples. So good.
We have to pick one! Mine would be steak bites!
How could I not have tried her recipes? They ALL sound so good! I’ve got some apples just waiting to be used and I’m going to have to try those yummy apple dumplings ~ today!!! Sounds like I need to try her potatoes too, in all their varieties! Hmmm, how do I choose what to make for dinner tonight? Thanks Leigh Anne, for sharing!
Her Texas Sheet Cake is amazing! That is the only recipe of hers I have actually made. I have a list of others I want to make. I would love to come to your dinner party and I’ll make the cake!
Our favorite is Marlboro Man’s Favorite Sandwich. Yummy, yummy! I could eat one right now!
I recently made her Strawberry Shortcake Cake and it was to-die-for. My entire family was raving and all I did was follow her simple instructions. The cake was gorgeous and delicious like all of her other recipes. She’s definitely my idol, too!
I’ve been meaning to try her spaghetti bolognese for weeks. I finally have some ground meat in the freezer, so hopefully I’ll get around to it soon. I heart Pioneer Woman’s site, and now you have me craving those dumplings. MMM.
PW Chicken Parmigiana, a family favorite. YUM!
I too love the Pioneer woman, and was disappointed that I didn’t go see her when she visited SLC.
Like many, I have made and LOVE the crash hot potatoes. What’s great about them is that you can tweak it so many yummy ways. I haven’t made her chocolate sheet cake yet only because I don’t have a sheet cake pan. But, I’m thinking I’m going to have to figure out a way around that because I just can’t wait any longer to have some! Ree is going to be in NY in December, and I have been wondering how I’m going to hold out until then to buy her book so she can sign it! Hope I win, but I know whoever wins will enjoy her book! Thanks for the dinner invite!
Since I am in charge of bringing a pie for Thanksgiving dessert (one of many desserts laid out that day!), I think I will try the Caramel Pumpkin Gingersnap Cheesecake (So There) recipe. Sounds delish and a good break from the standard pumpkin pie!
Also- I will post this dinner party on both Face Book and my Blog.
Thank you for a great and fun idea!
Jenn
I love so many of her recipes. (And yours too!) Some of our favorites are peach crisp with maple cream sauce, baked lemon pasta, and her apple pie.
I absolutely adore the Poineer Woman! My favorite is the recipe for pan-seared mushrooms (Pastor Ryan)… yum. I am addicted to great mushrooms (and luckily have a local organic source!) and make them as a side at least 3 times a week.
I am also quite the cookbook collectore – so this one would be a great addition to my collection
I have to give a thumbs up to Pioneer Woman’s “Chocolate Waffle Cookies”. Anyone who loves chocolate and likes things easy, this is the perfect pair. She mentions she gives them to neighborhood kids–are you kidding me. I don’t even have any leftover to give out!! They disappear quite quickly. Also, love her pumpkin muffins as well.
Have a good day.
SPICY MAC & CHEESE!!!! Yumyumyumyum!! It’s just too good not to gobble it all up. Love PW! I hope I win! =)
Hats off to Pioneer Woman’s Strawberry Shortcake recipe!! I love strawberry ANYTHING! I baked a strawberry cream cheese pie last year for a pie contest and won 1st prize!
apple caramel pie is delicious………….i can’t wait to try more recipes
She has so many wonderful recipes! I tried the pear crisp a few nights ago and it is amazing!!! YOU are the person that started me on Pioneer Woman… thank you!
I absolutely love her Bread Pudding – it is FABULOUS!!! Thanks for the giveaway – I want this book so bad
I really like her crash hot potatoes! But I have tried a couple of pasta dishes and they are really great too. Reading the comment section made me want to try more of them. But I’ve also tried lots of your recipes that I love too. We had Herbed Oatmeal bread last night. Very yummy!
My family love, love, loves the crash potatoes. They request them all the time. I would love to win her cookbook.
I think she is in Southern Living this month as well.
The apple dumplings are devine. I’ve told everyone I know about that recipe. It’s easy to make and just delicious.
My kids love french fries, but refuse to eat any other form of potato – unless it’s the crispy Crash Hot Potatoes.
thanks for sharing!! i’m so excited to try her recipes!! i just LOVE food blogs! i’m going to try her caramel-pumpkin-gingersnap-cheesecake. it looks and souns so yummy.
One of them has to be the “Chinese Beef & Broccoli” I love Chinese food then of course the Apple Dumplings. But to the Apple Dumplings I would top it with about 1/2 Cup of half and half while it is still hot. Also there is another one that I just made it is called “Sweet Roasted Rosemary Acorn Squash Wedges” For the BIG men in my family I made them 1/2 of Acorn a piece. It was the top of the dinner.
I love the cauliflower soup!!
My family loves the Chicken Spaaghetti. I took it to a luncheon at school last week and EVERYBODY wanted the recipe. We love the Ranch Style Chicken and the Apple Dumplings. Love her site…but love yours just as much!
Love,
Cindy
My husband’s favorite is her chicken spaghetti and my favorite is Penne a la Betsy. Yummy!!!!!! Her recipes are amazing.
The Best Lasagna Ever is the BEST LASAGNA EVER! I also love the steak bites, bacon wrapped jalepenos and all the pastas that she does. Amazing! I would love to win one of her books! She’s amazing!
Simple Sesame Noodles or Crash Hot Potatoes are my faves. But there are so many more that I want to try. I love PW’s pictures and commentary on all of the recipes. I found her through your website…many thanks!
She is totally amazing! I love all her pictures too. I think that Beef Brocolli looks so good and easy too.
Apple Dumplings are the BEST!!
I love her Asian Noodle Salad! I would love to win a copy of her cookbook! Thanks!
The apple dumplings are to die for! I want to try the beef brocoli.
She has so many yummy recipes! I grew up on her French Breakfast Puffs and Chocolate Sheet Cake, so those are my favorite so far just because of the memories. Thanks for the chance to win one of her cookbooks!
I’ve just recently started hearing about PW. I know–apparently I am out of the loop. However, I did see your link for the French Breakfast Puffs. Oh. My. Yum. I was thinking I may make them for breakfast tomorrow. Then I started thinking… I don’t really want to wait until tomorrow. 22 hours is an awfully long time to wait for sugary-cinnamony breakfast goodness. So, off I go!! Thanks for sharing the recipe!! Can’t wait to browse through more PW recipes!
The Awesome-est Blueberry Muffins look fabulous!
Steak Bites w/ Potatoe Bundles or Crash Potatoes! Is that “man food” or what! Plus the Fresh Green Beans One Way and some Dinner Rolls…Yum..count me in too! I like the Coq au Vin. Thanks!
I LOVE her Bacon-Wrapped Jalapeno Thingies!!! Make them all the time.
I thought I had a pretty good Caesar Salad recipe, until I made Pioneer Woman’s! That is SOooo good!!!
Thanks for the opportunity to win her cookbook! YAY! Good luck to everyone entering.
I’ve only made the crash hot potatoes and love them. I can’t wait to try some other recipes!!
The apple dumplings-no question! Everyone LOVES them (I even used Sprite as we didn’t have any Mtn. Dew). The guys do enjoy the Marlboro Man Sandwich (the girls don’t eat much beef and blew it off).
For me and my family it’s got to be the blackberry cobbler made with self-rising flour. My 17 year old grandson even asked for it for his birthday breakfast this past year. So easy, quick…and perfect every time whether I make it with blackberries, mixed fruit, or blueberries…straight from the freezer. Who knew anything could be so simple and delicious!
What’s NOT to love, but the Crash Hot Potatoes are it! We found them just in time for a homeschool project on Australia. Perfect! I would LOVE to win this cookbook! Thanks for the great blog.
I love Apple Dumplings! I need a copy of that cookbook!
My two teenager boys and my husband LOVE the MM sandwich.
Also, my 16 year old loves to make the apple dumplings;)!! it’s so easy..and he likes putting the mtn dew in the recipe:)
My absolute fave PW recipe (and I make her stuff–A LOT) is the best chocolate sheet cake, ever. I have 6 kids who are not accustomed to the taste of a homemade cake but they all thought I was the best mommy ever when I served that cake up one cool night with a glass of milk. My teens even bragged on Twitter and FB about it!
I faithfully look at Pioneer Woman Cooks! I have printed her Cinnamon Rolls recipe to try (but I haven’t done it yet!). My sister-in-law made her Tres Leche cake last week and said it was delicious!
Her cinnamon rolls and mac and cheese are to DIE for! Both are amazing. I would love her cook book!! I’ve been wanting it since it was released!! Great giveaway!
I have not made any of her recipes yet, but I am DYING for her cookbook!!! And I can’t wait to try her Chocolate Sheet Cake!!!
I just made her Apple Dumplings last night for a gathering with friends. They are my childrens favorite dessert and is made at least once a month! YUM!!!
Just last week, I tried her Spaghetti with Artichokes and Tomatoes. So yummy. It made a ton so I had plenty of leftovers to last me!
my favorite recipe by her is the Sweet-Roasted Rosemary Acorn Squash Wedges. YUMMMMMMMMMMM.
I love making “The Best Baked Beans Ever”, they are great with cornbread on Sunday afternoons!
I made her apple cake in a skillet recipe 3 weeks ago for our coffee group that meets on Saturday mornings. It was great!!!! Love the site. I think I started visiting the site when you first posted her ” crash hot potato” recipe. I love your site as well. Use your recipes also!
I just love her Perfect Beef Enchiladas. They really are perfect!! They taste just like you have gone into a nice Mexican restaraunt and ordered them. My husband talks about those more than anything else I have made and I’m always making new things! I love how they dish up, they hold their shape nicely and actually look like an enchilada instead of a big glob on your plate!
We love her Crash Hot Potatoes. I would love to win her cookbook. I know the recipes would all be winners.
I have to be honest, I’ve never tried any of these recipes – but I promise I will! I love cooking – and love new “old” ideas!
My husband and I love her mac and cheese!
My favorite PW recipe is her Blackberry Cobbler #1. Delicious!
Love Pioneer Woman! She is amazing!! I have made many of her recipes and have loved them all. For a dinner party I would make Olive Cheese Bread – http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/2007/06/olive_cheese_br/ – It makes a lot so it would be great for a dinner party. If there is any olive cheese spread left over, it is a great spread on crackers. Yum! It is time for a dinner party, just so I can make this Olive Cheese Bread!
Migas for breakfast–oh so yummy!
I couldn’t believe that those dumplings were going to be good. But I had to try and they were so yummy…didn’t last long and gave us good conversation as we discussed the recipe while we ate!
I love, love, love Pioneer Woman and I was so excited to see her book was out! I’d love to win a copy — it can replace all of the print outs that are filling up my recipe cabinet! All of her recipes are amazing, but lately I have been addicted to the Crash Hot Potatoes — I make them several times a week! They are the perfect side dish or even all on their own, which is how I have been eating them lately… they make a great lunch!!!
The Crash Hot Potatoes are what led me to PW’s website. I have also tried the Asian Noodle Salad and want to try the Tres Leches Cake next. I would LOVE her cookbook–thanks for the opportunity.
Oh what a lovely dinner party. Too much fun. I love PW’s Apple dumplings! Tried them and was amazed at using the mountain dew but boy were they Yummo!
Love Your blog that I subscribed to your feed. Thanks for sharing.
Jane
I’m dying to try the olive cheese bread
mmmmm….so many good recipes to choose from. I too LOVE the apple dumplings. But, I think I would have to call the bacon wrapped jalepenos my all time favorite.
I absolutely love her apple dumplings! Those are my fav. I also like her twice baked potatoes too. I would love to win the book, because I haven’t purchased my copy yet!
Wow – what Pioneer Woman recipe isn’t fabulous?!? I think it’s probably a toss-up between the crash hot potatoes and the bread pudding, although I love her blackberry cobbler (no ice cream required version) too.
And I totally want her cookbook!!!
I *LOVE* her BBQ meatballs!!
Hands down the apple dumplings! I think I actually got that recipe via your site though LOL.
I love Pioneer Woman…she has so many yummy recipes! I love her lasagna recipe…and her 4th of July Cake!!
I’ll start the party off with her fabulous jalapeno wrapped bacon thingies, major yumm-o!
I absolutely love her Chocolate Sheet Cake – it is my go-to dessert whenever we have guests. (My mother-in-law loves it so much that she just had me make it for her book club meeting – and all the ladies just raved about it!) I also love her recipe for Mexican Lasagna and the Marlboro Man’s Second Favorite Sandwich is one of my favorite things to make for a hearty lunch. There are just too many recipes to choose from, I love them all. Would love to own this cookbook!
Wow, it is nearly impossible to pick one favorite so I am going to say “Hot Crash Potatoes”. They were the very first recipe of hers that I tried. It was a success and I was hooked from then on out.
I know everyone loves the crash hot potatoes, but I have to say that the ABSOLUTE best potato recipe is her TWICE BAKED POTATOES! They are amazing and deilicious and full of fat. And I, like you, have never been disappointed with any of her recipes. They are the best!
Apple dumplings!
I LOVE the French Breakfast Puffs! I could eat the whole pan!
The crash hot potatoes have become a staple on our sunday dinners!
I discovered PW through your website… so thanks! I think my favorite is her Carrot Cake with Pecans IN the frosting. I’ve tried many, many of her recipes and have loved them all. Just opened my Southern Living magazine yesterday and was surprised to see her in it. Someday we’ll see YOU in a magazine too!
Fun giveaway! I love PW’s crash hot potatoes and the Tiki Marsala (From pastor Ryan) yum!! I also make her favorite salad a lot too! It is packed with so many veggies it takes me hours to chop but is o so worth it!!
I sure do love your blog!
I agree–apple dumplings!
I am a huge PW fan, and would so love this book. I haven’t made a lot of her recipes, but the favorite so far is the twice-baked potatoes. The ones she made on the Bonnie Hunt show–they are delish!
I can’t pick just one…we love the chocolate sheet cake, apple dumplings, chicken spaghetti and the crash-hot potatoes. I have a ton of others ready to try.
And she was also featured in Southern Living recently! She is awesome!
I love her mashed potatoes and sweet potato casserole. And I made her fettucini alfredo ;ast weekend and it was SO good.
The French Breakfast Puffs look too wonderful for words. Breakfast would be in a nother dimension if these were on the menu.
Her recipe for Twice Baked Potatoes are to die for–I’ve made them a LOT! Her mashed potatoes are scrumptious. And the Chocolate Sheet Cake=BEST! CAKE! EVER! YUMMMM! Now I’m hungry!
I have made so many of her recipes. Most recently the apple dumplings and crash potatoes. But I will always love her most for her cinnimon rolls. Mostly because it was the first time I was able to successfully use yeast!! Thank heavens for her step by step with photos!! Thanks LeighAnne for introducing me to Pioneer Woman!!
I would have to say our family favorite is the Monday Night Stir Fry. My 10 year old son is so picky and this is his favorite stir fry! My personal favorite is the Garlic Mashed Potatoes, but after reading all the comments, I definitely will try the Crash Hot Potatoes. I would LOVE her cookbook
I love love love (dare I say lurve) Marlboro Man’s favorite sandwich! Oh so good on a crusty roll!
Tough choice but I love the cauliflower soup. BBQ Meat Balls were a big hit and also the Favorite Enchilladas.
We liked Marlboro Man’s Favorite Sandwich.
I make her stuffed jalapenos for every function I go to. They are the first to go!
Love them!
Just tried her Macaroni & Cheese. Yummy!
Every recipe I have tried has been wonderful…Cheesy Muffins, Enchiladas, Yogurt Marmalade Bread, Asian Noodle Salad, Crash Hot Potatoes, Garlic Cheese Bread…just to name a few!
We love the Crash Hot Potatoes, there are so many of her recipes that I have tried and love them all. She certainly has an amazing blog, I would love to win her cookbook. Thanks for have such great give aways!
Chicken Spaghetti is our family favorite!
I have so many of the recipes and it’s hard to pick. The Apple Dumplings, Rum Cake, Crash Hot Potatoes, Fried Pork Chops are favorites in our house. I know, though, if I pick another Pioneer Woman recipe and make that, it also will become a family favorite. I love her blog and her sense of humor. She writes as if she’s sitting down right beside you. Thanks, Leigh Anne, for another great give-away opportunity.
It’s SO hard to pick a favorite! Those apple dumplings are ridiculously delish. I also LOVE LOVE LOVE her yogurt marmalade cake. I’ve served it at a couple brunches, and it is always a hit. SUPER moist, tangy, sweet, and scrumptious.
We love the apple dumplings here – every time I serve them people are licking the pan. We tried crash hot potatoes on Sunday and they were a hit.
We love the Hot Crash Potatoes and the Steak Bites. I love the PW.
I actually got my personal copy signed by her last week… pics on my blog! My personal faves are, well pretty much everything! Love the brisket, crash hot potatoes, bacon wrapped jalapenos, the list goes on! I’d love to win a copy to give as a Christmas gift!
Two of my favorites are the crash hot potatoes and the best ever chocolate sheet cake. I really want to try the apple dumplings too! Thanks!
Potato Packets, ooh yeah. How can you go wrong with carbs covered in bacon, butter and cream??? I love that there is no mess and everyone loves getting their own little bundle. Love your site, I use it almost daily. Thanks!!!
I like the lighter side sometimes and her Baked Lemon Pasta is very good and light. Refreshing in the summer.
I’m going to try Marlboro Man’s Second Most Favorite Sandwich. Actually I would like to try all of her recipes, they look sooooo good.
Our family loves the onion strings and the Crash Hot Potatoes. Haven’t tried many yet but every time I read Pioneer Woman’s blog, I want to try everything.
I’d like to try her apple dumplings!
Pioneer Woman is my very most favoritest recipe blog! I love her Apple Dumplings, Hot Crash Potatoes, cinnamon rolls, and the Asian Salad.
My favorite Pioneer Woman recipe is:
“My Most Favorite Salad Ever. Ever, Ever, Ever!”
also known as the
Asian Noodle Salad
I also love PW and love all the recipes I’ve made. My favorite is “My Most Favorite Salad”
I’ve tried many of her recipes, and loved all of them: Pumpkin Cheesecake, Steak Bites, Crash Potatoes, Chicken Tikka Masala and several others. Great idea for a dinner party!
I love the herbed shrimp recipe! I make it quite often
I need to try more of her recipes!
Apple Dumplings are awesome
Crash potatoes
beans and cornbread
I simply adore every recipe I have tried of hers. The last one was her carmel apple sticky buns, oh my- they are TO DIE FOR! I also love YOUR recipes, the spanish rice is my latest favorite, I have searched for years for a rice I like for mexican dishes and it is perfect. When I am in the mood for a new and wonderful recipe I know I can count on you for one. Thank you.
Her apple dumplings and pico de gaillo! Yum!
And just how are we supposed to pick just one? Really, should I start with the apple dumplings? Or, lasagna? Or chocolate sheet cake? Or her olive bread?
I just don’t know what to do.
Thanks!
I have tried a lot of Ree’s recipes… and have loved them all. Her chocolate sheet cake is amazing as are the cake balls, meatballs, enchiladas, spreads, crash potatoes. The list could go on and on! I’m dissapointed I missed her on the Bonnie Hunt show!
My favorite so far is by far the Onion Strings! So absolutely delicious!!!! I’m a huge fan of her Tasty Kitchen site also
Love so many of them. Just made the rosemary dinner rolls. Also the peach crisp is a fave and the olive cheese bread. Yum
Chocolate Sheet Cake!
I really like the crash hot potatoes.
My favorite would HAVE to be her pulled/shredded pork! Oh it’s to DIE for!♥
~TidyMom
I love all of her pictures and her recipes. I love the chocolate cake and
the apple dumplings.
I facebooked your party: http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.yourhomebasedmom.com%2Fpioneer-woman-dinner-party-and-giveaway%2F&%3Bt=Pioneer+Woman+Dinner+Party+and+Giveaway#/posted.php?id=1382857467&success
We love the steak bites (they are perfect for my kids) and the crash hot potatoes! Thanks for the chance to win, then I could get something else for Christmas
I tried the Crash Hot Potatoes last night. They were delicious! We had a dinner guest as well and they were a bit hit with everyone. They will become a regular side dish for our family!
We are definitely a meat and potatoes kind of family so our favorite PW recipe is her Crash Hot Potatoes. LOVE them! I was seriously so giddy (along with the rest of her followers) when she came out with her cookbook. It’s on my Christmas wish list this year. I am planning on buying a few copies for my dearest girlfriend, mom and MIL.
I like her Asian Noodle Salad and want to try the Apricot Bars. I was visiting Salt Lake City and had to leave just two days before her book signing. Too bad!
I love her Chocolate Sheet Cake.
Love, l0ve, loooove the Apple Dumplings, and also the Crash Hot Potatoes. I don’t think I’ve ever had a flop from a P-Dub recipe.
For SURE the apple dumplings, the Cookbook looks darling!
I love her steak bites! Anything that she makes turns to gold!
Our family loves her pot roast recipe. Delicious! And I would love to own her cookbook.
The mashed potatoes are to die for along with her pot roast! YUMMY!
I absolutely love her Crash Hot Potatoes because it is a twist on the way we normally serve potatoes. Every time I took it to a summer BBQ that platter was emptied very quickly.
I’ve only fixed a couple of her recipes so far, but my family loved both of them – Asian noodle salad and apple dumplings…YUM!!! Hoping to get her cookbook and try some more. Maybe I’ll even WIN it!
Thanks for the opportunity!
The Apple Dumplings are a favorite . . . I only make them to take to potlucks because otherwise I would eat too many!! They are easy to make, and I never bring home leftovers when I bring them to church dinners. Yum!
I also have not made one recipe that I haven’t loved! I love that every recipe is made with realistic, basic ingredients and are very easy to make! Plus the step by step instructions are just hilarious! My familyLOVES the Chocolate Sheet Cake, Hot Crash Potatoes, Asian Noodle Salad and the Apple Dumplings, and on and on!
Bacon Wrapped Jalepeno Thingies
Chicken Spaghetti or White Chicken Enchildas
Chocolate sheet cake
Yummy
I cannot wait to try her Chicken Enchiladas–they look amazing!
I love your idea of a virtual dinner party, especially with Ree’s recipes! She is not only a wonderful cook, but also a wonderful blogger. I just love her blog and would love to have her cookbook! One of my favorite recipes is her Baked Lemon Pasta. It is so easy and delicious!
We just tried the Crashed Potatoes. Yummy! Can’t wait to try the bread pudding.
That is really tough! If I have to choose, I am going to say the Crash Hot Potatoes. I love how versatile they are and you can change up the flavor based on whatever herbs/seasonings you have available.
I am in LOVE with Ree’s Pico de Gallo and Gauca mole recipes. SO GOOD! Looking through the comments I can tell that I need to try her Crash Hot Potatoes. Yum… thanks for giving me an excuse to look through her recipes again.
It’s really hard to choose just one! But I won my boyfriend over with her caesar salad recipe! It’s so amazing! I need to find anchovies in a jar, because we could eat it every week!
Like you said, Pioneer Woman’s Apple Dumplings are super delish! I am so excited that she has a cookbook.
My favorite has to be the Texas Sheet Cake. I only ever make it when lots of people will be around because I know I won’t be able to stop eating it!
I can’t believe I did not enter this! I love Pioneer Woman, and YOU are the one who first linked me to her!!! Your Crash Hot Potatoes and Flank Steak post…
From there it was love at first site… love, love, love her… I am so PROUD of the fact that she is No 1 on the NY Times Bestseller’s list~ isn;t that funny I am proud of her!
I would have to say, while I like all of her recipes that I have tried.. my kids really like Marlboro Man’s Second Favorite Sandwich…
Yes, that is the kind of cook I am. I need a recipe for a sandwich. But, it is really good!
Mine is simple, I love her Migas! There are like 100 other recipes of hers that I adore, but these Migas are sooooooo good!
I love love love the recipe for Crash Hot Potatoes! We’ve eaten them at least once a week(if not more) since first seeing the recipe. They’re so good!
Thanks for hosting this dinner party. See this, I brought yo a virtual bottle of wine. It a beautiful merlot that we can share a glass after enjoying your beautifully preapred dinner!
Love those crash potatoes. Soft yet a little crusty. Just perfect. We like to mix some smashed garlic with the olive oil before drizzling too, makes a nice change of pace.

My favorite PW recipe is her Christmas Rum Cake here:
http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/2008/12/christmas-rum-cake/
yummy!
Just made the Asian Noodle Salad (Best Salad Ever) the other night…
So very good…. ! Love all the pictures with the recipes! Can’t wait to get a cookbook…~
I have made many, many of Pioneer Woman’s recipes, but some our family LOVES are Hot Crush Potatoes & Lasagna! YUMMMMMYYYY!
Love your website too and have used many recipes here as well…thank you.
So many fun and yummy recipes I’ve tried since you first turned us on to this great site, it’s hard to pick a favorite. The ‘zucchini cakes’ were a real family hit when my garden overfload with tons of zucchini. I must have made them at least once a week for awhile and never got complaints….only requests for more. I have to make ‘The Marlboro Man’ ’cause I worked with the man who developed and founded that handsome guy (a long time ago when I was in advertising). So, in memory of him, I had to make it and have since repeated it many times, to everyone’s delight. And like everyone else, we all LOVE the ‘Crash Potatoes’, in fact, they are on the menu tonight along with the ‘onion strings’. Come on over……always love love love a party and the more the merrier!!!!
Love all of her recipes..total comfort food. SS
I love everything I’ve tried. Apple Dumplings ahve to be one of the favorites. Thanks for reminding us of her amazing site–love yours too.
STEAK BITES!!!! Need I say more? Okay, I will….they are simple, inexpensive and quickly devoured….and I haven’t found anyone who doesn’t love ‘em:)
caramel apple pie. But I’m definitely looking up the hot crash potatoes after seeing all the comments here!
Those apple dumplings look amazing. I think I am going to bathe in them!
Dinner rolls. every party needs some dinner rolls
I have made quite a few of the fab pioneer woman’s recipes, but one of the tried and true is her mashed potatoes. I love making this side dish when I need to bring a meal to someone…..it is the ultimate “hey-you-REALLY-know-I-care-I-made-you-homemade-mashed-potatoes” comfort food. Iwould LUUVVE a copy of that book!
The Apple Dumplings are the BEST!
I had never heard of the Pioneer Woman until reading your website. Now, I have too many new recipes to try. Since I am partial to “Baked Goodies” I will try the Texas Sheet Cake and the French Puffs soon!!
I am crazy about her “bacon-wrapped jalapeno thingies” her “pasta primavera” and her “my most favorite burger ever – (for now)”. I am certain there aren’t many of her recipes that if I tried that I wouldn’t just love so I am crossing my fingers, toes and anything else I can cross that I will win one of her cookbooks
I made her White Chicken Enchiladas last night. It was my first since I just found her site (thanks to you) 3 days ago. The enchiladas were soooo yummy!
I love the PW’s Caramel Apple Pie!!!! I hope I win a cookbook.
The pumpkin muffins were YUMMY! Can’t wait to try some more pioneer recipes!
I too LOVE the apple dumplings.
This cookbook is on the top of my “to buy” list for my friends. I can’t wait to get my hands on one! I am absolutely thrilled with the layout she decided on and it is a wonderful reflection of her blog which we all of course love. One of my favorite posts are your “cross over” blogs. To be a fly on the wall for that one!!
The crushed potatoes were a big hit, a keeper with my chef son-in law.
We get the true test at this home.
I love her Texas Sheet Cake and really want to try her Apple Dumplings! What a great idea to have a virtual dinner party! Thanks for the giveaway
Her jalopenie thingies from her website!
well, I just shared your link or this giveaway through your FB site…not sure how to post the link to it though??? @Rachelle P.S.
These things look yummy….
The food looks so yummy!!!
I’ve tried several of her recipes…I’d have to say her fettuccine alfredo is one of the best! I also adore her French breakfast puffs and I just recently tried her bbq meatballs for a crowd at my daughter’s birthday party and they were a huge hit! In other words, you can’t go wrong with one of her recipes!! Thanks for the giveaway opportunity:)
Her recipes are man pleasing, wife plumping, family loving good. I could eat her Most Favorite Salad Ever. Ever. Ever Everyday!
I blogged about it. Thanks for a fun giveaway! Good luck to everyone!
Chocolate Sheet Cake has to be my favorite ! Yummy….I can’t leave it alone.
Love hearing and seeing what can be made from scratch happily.
All the recipes sound amazing–but easy to make!
Her Tres Leches Cake looks amazing. I have Pastor Ryan’s bread on my to-do list! Her Chiles Rellenos that she featured today look so simple but look really yummy! Great giveaway!

I love the chocolate sheet cake also – yummy!
Try #3,maybe it was the links? Anyways they are allon my blog too.
I have made and blogged about a few of her recipes from her site:
Our fave, crispy yogurt chicken
twice baked potatoes:
chocolate sheet cake:
pastor ryan’s chicken tikka masala:
bacon wrapped jalapenos:
Yum yum!
The Cinnamon Rolls are by far, the yummiest thing we have ever had! I make the entire recipe, and dole them out to our friends! They are AWESOME!!! I have this cookbook on my Christmas list, so Iwould love an early gift!!
Appetizer: Bacon Wrapped Jalapeno thingies-my go to appetizer when the whole family is over.
Salad: I’m actually sitting here eating her My most Favorite Salad EVER! That’s funny.
Dessert:Fourth of July Cake. You Can DO It! It’s Ree’s version of Ina Garten’s cake. This cake made me love white cake. (Dark Dark choc is my fav). And it also made me gain 3 lbs Labor Day 2008.
I don’t even need the berries on it.
I haven’t tried any of her recipes, but they sound so yummy! I would love the cookbook so I can try them all!
I have to agree with so many. How do you pick one favorite. I thought about it, thought about my fave comfort food, and of course simplicity has to play a HUGE part in my life. I must say the Crash Potatoes hit the mark when it comes to me. My family and I love anything with the word ‘potato’ in it, and these are tasty, simple and can be dressed up or dressed down. ‘Simple elegance’ is what I am all about!
I made PW’s Pot Roast from the 1/1/08 blog post and it was delicious!! My husband said it was the best he had ever had!
I still find it amazing that I stumbled upon her last year. I absolutely love reading her blog and trying her recipes. I love Pastor Ryan’s fish recipes, her Cowboy Spaghetti.
YUM!
Her cheese bisquits! They are so good!
Wow! there are lots of Pioneer Woman fans! we love the crash potatoes and apple dumplings. my mom makes both recipes too.
I’d love to try her Orange Marmalade Rolls. I love the fresh citrus taste of rolls with orange marmalade. Last year my daughters and I tried Cake Balls and Cupcake Pops. There were rich and delicious.
Pumpkin Butter…..YUMM-O….gotta have the pumpkin butter.
I love her recipes! I’ve made the yummy Apple dumplings! That’s my #1 dessert recipe.
So many. Especially the baked fudge, chicken spaghetti, and asian salad

Marlboro Mans Favorite Sandwich. Oozing with fat and calories, but YUM!
Forget the recipes!! Her sense of humor is hilarious. I love reading her blog!!
Marlboro Man’s favorite Sandwich. Yummy!
I can’t remember if I already commented, but I love, love, LOVE the Cauliflower Soup on her website. YUM!! And the kids love it too. Even better!
I’ve yet to try any of her recipes (though I frequent the homeschooling section on her site) so the recipe for Spicy Molasses cookies is going to be my first. How cool would it be to win her cookbook!
Her site makes my mouth water!
The crash potatoes are a smash at my house!
I blogged about you! http://www.shanell-recipes.blogspot.com!
I have only tried her hot crash potatoes and we loved them. She is very inspiring!
I made all her Thanksginvig recipes last year and it was a hit………..but I really love her lasagna recipe.
I made the Pioneer Woman’s Penne a la Betsey for a dinner party. It was a hit and super yummy!
