Free Holiday Recipes -
From Valentine's Day Cookies to Christmas Candies




Recipes! I hope you enjoy this collection of free holiday recipes. I have also included some "special event" recipes that I think you will enjoy.

Whether you are planning a Christmas party, a birthday party, or just looking to try a new Mexican or soul food recipe, you've found a home. Welcome!

I have collected these recipes through over thirty years of cooking -and teaching cooking to high school students in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Now that I am retired, I am offering these holiday recipes for your enjoyment.

First, the holiday recipes - Delicious recipes to help you and your family celebrate with wonderful food - you simply add the love.

Then, there are sections devoted to recipes for two Special Events: a Birthday party and a football Tailgate party (Geaux Tigers!).

Also, just for fun, I've added recipe sections that celebrate the wonderful diversity of our cultures: Mexican or Latino Recipes, and Soul Food Recipes.

Cooking and teaching have been important parts of my life. Because I want to share my wonderful recipe collection, I have published two cookbooks, Froggy Bottom Louisiana Cuisine (which I am ecstatic has sold over 30,000 copies), and my newer book, Makin' Memories (a children's cookbook and crafts book).

If you enjoy the recipes on this website, perhaps you will want to try out these cookbooks. Until then, please enjoy the free recipes and bookmark this page for easy return!

Thank you for visiting my recipe website. Please come back often for free holiday recipes - and whatever season (Christmas, Thanksgiving, Halloween, or Mardi Gras), may you and your family enjoy this wonderful collection of recipes.

Happy Cooking,

Faye Brydels
