Cougar Football Cookbook compiled by Holly Mendenhall

The first time I heard about this book, I was so excited because I am such a big BYU fan.  So I began to read it right away.





The cookbook was great.  There were many fun homemade recipes that I was very excited to bake.  And what was even better was it was for their Thursdays Heroes charity. [Momma's note: See https://www.broncomendenhall.com/thursdays-heroes/ or https://www.facebook.com/fullyinvested for more info about Thursday's Heroes.]

At the bottom of the page it had the name of the person who made the recipe or added it in.  So it was fun to see the different names and then see who they are related to that made them famous in BYU football.  For example: Lenore V. Mendenhall is the mother of Coach Bronco Mendenhall.

The organization was very creative; it was set into "Football Slang" you might call it.   Pre-game warm ups, Rise and Shout, ect.  There was only one glitch.  The only glitch was there were no pictures!  In my opinion, there should always be pictures so you get a sense of what it looks like or how it can look like once it is done.

At the closing of this review, I would like to share my favorite recipe [that sounded good] from each section:
