Top Ten Cookbooks Published Using CreateSpace

Have you ever gotten tired of the same old recipes? I don’t blame you. Seems like there are only so may ways you can make green bean casserole. However, you can break away from the same old food routine with new recipes out of cookbooks you’ve likely never heard of. Why are they so obscure if they’re so good? Well, these cookbooks are published by “indie” authors who likely don’t have the marketing budget of the heavy hitters in the book world. Readers in their local community might be familiar with them from their appearances in local bookstores, but they aren’t likely to be going on a nationwide tour anytime soon. All they really need is to connect with people just like you who want a new adventure in food. So here’s a list of ten of the best.

Air Fryer Cookbook

So you’ve seen these new things called air fryers and are wondering what you can do with them.

You can even create vegan dishes with an air fryer just by following the instructions in this book.
