Heirloom Recipes

Rediscover traditional homemade meals with this collection of family recipes handed down across generations.

Few things speak more to our hearts than the recipes handed down from mother to daughter, from great-aunt to great-niece, generation after generation. These recipes remind us of our heritage—whether we come from the steppes of Russia or the plains of Iowa—and are as rich in family history as they are in flavor.

Heirloom Recipes brings together the family recipes of the women of iVillage, and reflects the spirit in which these recipes were originally shared. Each recipe is presented with homespun cooking tips and fond family memories. With hearty breakfast dishes, satisfying dinners, and wholesome desserts, Heirloom Recipes is a treasure trove of loving traditions.
