Our first cookbook, West of the Rockies, was originally produced in the mid-90's as yet another way of generating revenue that JSL could disperse back into our community. It wasn't long, however, before it stopped being recognized as only a charitable project and became known as a dang good cookbook! The recipes are easy to follow, consistently good and uniquely Colorado!

Our original commitment to giving the proceeds from our cookbooks back to the community remains steadfast. When you buy our cookbooks for yourself, or as a thoughtful gift for a friend or loved-one, you can take pride in knowing you are supporting many non-profits and organizations that are actively supporting and improving our great community.

We are thrilled to introduce our newest cookbook, Celebrate Colorado, published in early 2005! This beautiful hardbound coffee table style cookbook has great recipes for all seasons along with breathtaking photographs showcasing the diverse landscapes in the Grand Valley. You're sure to enjoy the tasty and quick recipes, and you're dinner guests will experience true culinary delight!   $27.95 - 160 pages, 140 recipes.
