(EMAILWIRE.COM, November 30, 2008 ) West Okoboji, IA - Innkeepers Donna Muilenburg from the Okoboji Country Inn and Mary Nichols from Hannah Marie Country Inn each showedcased one of their recipes from the new Iowa Bed and Breakfast Innkeepers Association cookbook, "Discover Iowa: Cooking with Iowa Wines, Meats and Other Iowa Products" by Amelia Painter.

Muilenburg chose to prepear her Brunch Casserole, which was a favorite of Annabelle's Tea Room luncheon guests for many years, as well as a family favorite. "This is not your typical egg dish, and is perfect to make when you have a lot of company and want to make a statement," said Muilenburg. She also wanted to share this recipe with young cooks to demonstrate that you don't have to be in the kitchen all day to make a wonderful and different entree that will please everyone.

The new cookbook will be available in time to pick up for Christmas gifts and is also sold at The Wash House gift shop, which is located adjacent to the Okoboji Country Inn.

"Discover Iowa: Cooking with Iowa Wines, Meats and other Iowa Products" takes readers on a culinary journey across every region in Iowa as innkeepers share their guest's favorite recipes as well a number of heirloom recipes that have withstood time. Unique to the book are recipes from Iowa wineries, the Iowa Egg Council, the Iowa Beef Industry Council, the Iowa Pork Producers Association, and Make Mine Wine magazine. Also found in the cookbook are easy to follow recipe notes, fun stories, comments for using the recipes, and cooking tips from the innkeepers as well as from Iowa wineries, the Iowa Egg Council, and the Bureau of Horticulture and Farmers Markets in Iowa.
