If members are interested and willing to contribute let's get started.

I would like to target having this totally done and ready for purchase in November. If that sounds good then I would like to set a final submission date as October 1st. If things are going well it can be extended a little.

So What I might do to keep it organized is to start a Category for the Cook book and then break downs inside the Category.

First we need to have some time of structure. Table of content so to speak.

Appetizers
Salads
...Lettuce
...Pasta
...Jello
Breads
Main Dishes
...Fish
...Chicken
...Meat
...Vegetarian
Dessert
...Candies
...Cookies
...Cakes
...


To be continued

Casseroles
Vegetables

Soup, Stew, and Chili

Dips (for Veggies & Chips)

Poultry vs. chicken
Fish & Seafood
Pasta, as main dish
Crock Pot
Semi-Homemade
Beverages
Miscellaneous
Grilling
Sauces

Dog treats/recipes?

What would be Semi-Homemade. Some things I make are made with canned goods, other things I make from scratch, but you could use a pre-made product. So I guess I am not quite sure what Semi-Homemade category would be.

Here is what we have so far:

...Dog recipes that go beyond treats

Exactly what you just said. A "from scratch" recipe but converted to an "easy recipe" with substitutions of canned, store-bought, packaged, left-over, etc. ingredients. What comes to mind is shepherd's pie, stroganoff, multi-step cakes (made with a mix vs. individual ingredients), etc.

We will have to try to figure out how to make this work.

Which do we think there will be more of - full from scratch or easy?

Or do we just have some sorting - like easy 30 mins or less meals.
