I saw the other day a new cookbook Cooking with Mickey and the Disney chefs. I was wondering if anyone had this cookbook or had even looked at it to see if it was any good. When I searched on Amazon I found some other Disney cookbooks as well. The Disney Bakery one looked good. I like cookbooks and thought it might be something to look for on our trip this Dec.
 
My first Disney cookbook is probably 10-15 years old. I've made many recipes from it, especially our favorites from the parks: Crepes Angelica, beef barley soup, and turkey pot pie (great for using leftovers from Thanksgiving). I'm sure you'll enjoy it!
 
I bet Margie J knows about it. She is the resident DIS recipe guru.

Checking in!

I have three of the Disney cookbooks at home.

The first is Cooking with Mickey Vol II. It features some older recipes from both WDW and DL. It has a lot of your classics such as Lemon Sherbet Punch, Pina Colada Dip, Clam Chowder, Pancakes, Tony's House Dressing, Puffed French Toast, Fish and Chips, Poly Luau Chicken, Walt's Chili, Vegetable Lasagne and Key Lime Pie. It's an older edition and hard to find sometimes.

The second book I have is Cooking with Mickey and the Chefs of WDW Resort. It's a newer version and quite a handy book. Physically it's smaller and sets up like an eisel on your countertop. The book features more contemporary classics such as Hitipi, White Onion Soup, Pine Nut Bread, Cobb Salad, Cedar Plank Salmon, Mom's Meatloaf, Country Penne, Worms and Dirt, Flame Tree BBQ Sauce and Rice Cream. I've used this book more often.

The third and newest book I have is Disney Recipes, From Animation to Inspiration. It's concept is unique. the Authors took Disney classic animations films and their characters to inspire recipes, hence the name of the book. So, these are unique recipes for foods you won't find at any Park or Resort. It has everything from Princess Aurora's Berried Honey Butter, Lady and the Tramp's Spaghetti Bella Notte, Louis's Seafood Chowder to The 101 Puppies' Kanine Krunchy Dog Biscuits. The recipes and illustrations make this a lovely book in many ways. I had the pleasure to meet the Author, Ira Meyer, at last year's F&W Festival.

I have heard that a new cookbook is due out soon. It will feature more recipes from WDW, DL and the DCL as well.

Thanks that is just what I wanted to hear. I like good cookbooks and I may not use all the ones I have they are a great souvinear from trips. I thought that the Cooking with Mickey and the WDW Chef just came out in June or at least that is what I thought I read. Wait I just looked and yours is the WDW resort Chefs and the one I saw was Disney chefs and I think it is from all the parks. I think it would be fun to have a Disney movie night and fix the food to go with the movie. Happy cooking.
 
FYI--

I haven't seen the new one but I just bought 4 copies of The Disney Bakery one today at Half Price Books. They were $4.98 each with an additional 20% off. The cover price was $14.99.

I plan on giving them as Christmas gifts. The recipes look very cute- perfect for a child that enjoys cooking.
