Five Marys Family Style

Recipes and Traditions from the Ranch




Popular Instagram storyteller Mary Heffernan shared with readers family life on the ranch through meals, traditions, and crafts including festive holiday celebrations for Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Following up on her popular cookbook, Five Marys Ranch Raised, Mary Heffernan reveals family life on the ranch through the traditions, crafts, and meals they share together throughout the year.

I want to make everything from this cookbook!"
--Tieghan Gerard, Half Baked Harvest

Arranged around 17 themed menus for favorite family events and activities, Five Marys Family Style takes the reader on a journey through the seasons and customs that drive life on the ranch.
    Featuring more than 75 rustic, hearty recipes, inside readers will discover the Heffernan family's Thanksgiving and Christmas traditions, menus for a cozy fireside dinner, a summer cookout, a pack-ahead picnic, or an end-of-week taco fiesta. Sprinkled throughout the book are simple, crafty DIY projects that Mary and her four daughters have fun making together, including indigo-dyed tea towels, flower-filled holiday table runners, and hand-rolled beeswax candles.
    Along the way, Mary shares stories of life on the ranch as well as the faithful traditions and strong connections she maintains with her extended family. Lush photography captures the expansive beauty of the ranch, the animals, including dogs, cats, and horses, and of course, Mary and her beloved husband and ranching co-partner, Brian.

“This is the definition of simple, fun, and beautiful food. Giddyup and start cookin’!!!”
--Al Roker


“Five Marys Family Style is an ode to making memories around a table, gathering your people not just for gifts but also for good food.”
--Sunset magazine

Praise for Five Marys Family Style

Praise for Ranch Raised:
“A book that makes you want to leave the city and move to a ranch to have this kind of life yourself. Filled with drool-worthy recipes and beautiful memories. I can’t wait to try these dishes!” 
—Tiffani Thiessen, actress, producer, TV host and author 

“Heffernan’s accessible volume on ranch living and cooking transports and inspires.”
—Publishers Weekly
“This is California cuisine with a decidedly carnivorous bent—it is a ranch after all. Snacks like jalapeño poppers and beef jerky precede recipes starring beef, pork, and lamb. To echo those often-spicy meats, vegetable dishes include cauliflower in peppery Buffalo sauce. Drinks and a few desserts round out the hearty offerings, and color photographs capture the beauty of ranch life and its gustatory pleasures.”
—Booklist

“Hallelujah for this cookbook from trailblazing rancher Mary Heffernan—I’m excited to cook delicious, quality meals from it!”
