My New Cookbook!
The day is finally here! You can now officially order my cookbook!
This book is a compilation of the top 101 recipes I believe everyone should know how to make, from a classic Christmas Dinner to a casual brunch. These recipes are my go-to favorites that I turn to time and time again because they involve minimal effort but deliver maximum impact. Let’s face it: entertaining can be stressful enough, so the recipes should not be hard!
This book will guide you through a year of seasonal entertaining, including drinks, appetizers, mains, sides, brunch dishes, and desserts.

Why You’ll Love This Book:
- There is a photo of every recipe!
- Each recipe has a notes section for tips and tricks to help you achieve success!
- Each recipe has a “Make-Ahead Game Plan” to identify things you can prep beforehand.
- Each recipe has a “Pairs well With” section that leads to other recipes in the book that pair well with that dish, helping you create menus.
- Or leave the planning to me! The back of the book has eight seasonal menus from Thanksgiving to Mother’s Day, designed with recipes found in the book and complete with game plans to help you manage the prep.
- I also include entertaining advice on how to keep your cool while entertaining, how to build a collection of plates, flatware, and serving pieces, how to deal with sticky situations that will arise, and lots of fun personal stories surrounding the recipes in this book!
- The book also comes with a snazzy book ribbon to help mark your place! (One of my favorite details!)

Let’s Cook the Cover!
In this week’s video, we are cooking the cover! I will show you how to make this delicious Ham, Leek, and Gruyere Cheese Strata on the cover. It’s a fantastic recipe for an upcoming holiday brunch or really any time of year!

A Heart Felt THANKS!
- I want to express my gratitude to each and every one of you for following my channel for so many years, which has allowed me to reach this point of book publishing! Writing a cookbook has been my lifelong dream, and YOU made it happen!
- As a special thanks, I’ve created a brunch menu with four bonus recipes not in the book. These recipes will help you round out the strata recipe and turn it into a full menu. The menu also includes a make-head game plan to help you manage the prep!

I clicked on get shrimp bisque recipe. It went to your ad for the cookbook. I clicked on jump to recipe. Nothing happened. I consider this dishonest and will remove your site.
Hi Doug,
Sorry for the trouble. It wasn’t done intentionally. I must have put the wrong link in when copying and pasting. Here’s the recipe for the shrimp bisque. https://entertainingwithbeth.com/shrimp-bisque/

Congratulations on your 1st book release. I’ve just preordered your book. Your videos have been inspiring to me because through that I feel like I’m invited into your home and kitchen and even to places you visit like bakeries etc. I enjoy practicing hospitality with my neighbors, friends and even my church family. I’ve already made some of your recipes and shared them with these folks. I look forward to not only entertaining my guests but also encouraging them to cook simple but yet fulfilling recipes through your book. All the best with your official release!
