Hi, I’m Jill Winger, creator of the award-winning blog The Prairie Homestead, and author of The Prairie Homestead Cookbook: Simple Recipes for Heritage Cooking in Any Kitchen.

Inside this colorful cookbook I will show you how to make 100+ wholesome recipes made with fresh ingredients to bring the flavors and spirit of homestead cooking to any kitchen table. While my family produces much of our own food on our Wyoming farm, you don’t have to grow all—or even any—of your own food to cook and eat like a homesteader.

These well-tested recipes include my family’s favorites, with maple-glazed pork chops, butternut Alfredo pasta, and browned butter skillet corn. Inside you will also find bonus recipes and tutorials for homemade sauces, salt rubs, sour cream, and the like—staples that many people are surprised to learn you can make yourself.

Part recipes and part homesteading handbook, The Prairie Homestead Homestead Cookbook will not only teach you how to make traditional American comfort food recipes with simple, whole food ingredients, but will also help you get started growing your own veggies, eggs, and maybe even dairy.

Inside The Prairie Homestead Cookbook you will learn:

  • Over 105 recipes for wholesome, family-pleasing breakfasts, sides, mains, and desserts
  • 17 tutorials for making your own pantry staples such as ricotta, cream cheese, herb-infused salts, sourdough starter, sauces, and more
  • Quick-glance growing guides for veggies and herbs
  • Troubleshooting tips for homemade broth, butter, and more
  • Strategies for keeping your homestead pantry well-stocked
  • Practical advice and encouragement as you begin your own homesteading journey, regardless of where you may live
  • Tips for starting your own flock of chickens or home dairy from a homesteader who’s been there, done that

PLUS you can hone your kitchen skills in my companion tutorial eCourse, The Heritage Cooking Crash Course
