Jimmy Buffett knows all about Gulf Coast living. His music is a reflection of this beautiful area. Turns out that he isn’t the only talented one in the family.
Lucy Buffett is a talented chef and Gulf Shores restaurant owner. She is also Jimmy’s sister.
Originally, Lucy self-published a cookbook called Crazy Sista Cooking. It did well and has now been updated with a new title, new features, new photographs and a publisher. It is beautiful! The recipes and the stories that go along with them are great.
Here are a few of the recipes you’ll find in the book:
- Key Lime Squares
- Fried Green Tomato BLT
- Deep Fried Okra
- Bama Breeze Cocktail
- Cuban Black Beans with Yellow Rice
LuLu’s Kitchen is a cookbook that makes me hungry and makes me want to take a vacation!
