About a year ago, I received (the best) direct message from a girl on Instagram who I had only met briefly once in real life. She messaged me and some other girls on Instagram asking if we wanted to do a cookbook club together! We all said yes (of course!) and we had our first one the following month.
There are obviously a lot of different ways to go about doing a Cookbook Club, but I thought I’d give some details on how we do ours!
We have 12 girls in the group and each trade-off hosting cookbook club that month. We generally like to do the first Thursday of the month but obviously know that life can get in the way and sometimes it changes. Not everyone can come every single month and that’s okay too.
Whoever is in charge of hosting gets to choose which cookbook/blog we do! Once that is decided, we have a shared Google Sheet where we all add what we’re bringing with a link to the recipe if you can find it online. If it’s in the physical cookbook, we will just text in a picture of it and the host will print out little recipe cards we can keep in our recipe tin in our kitchens.
Favorite cookbooks
Here is an example of how our spreadsheet looks below.
Another fun thing we’ve done is choose our favorite recipe of our moms and bring our moms to Cookbook Club in May for Mother’s Day, or do our favorite summer dish in June depending on what’s in season, etc. 🍉 So it totally doesn’t have to be a cookbook every single month! Mix it and maybe do your favorite Mexican dish for Cinco de Mayo etc.
And that’s it! I hope that helps. Let me know if you have any more questions and send that DM on Instagram and get some girls together! Whether you know them personally or not! These girls have become some of my greatest friends and I am SO glad I’ve met them through Cookbook Club!
