This week’s free read is unlike anything the Rover has offered before. The Vatican Cookbook: Presented by the Pontifical Swiss Guard offers a collection of more than 80 recipes alongside beautiful photographs of classic Vatican scenes, including St. Peter’s Basilica, the Vatican Museums, the Sistine Chapel, and more.
Furthermore, each of the three recent popes—Pope Francis, Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI, and Pope Saint John Paul II—receives a special tribute: a section containing recipes for his personal favorite dishes. These dishes are taken from their respective birthplaces of Argentina, Bavaria, and Poland.
This book is perfect for anyone who shares the Swiss Guard’s esteem for the papacy and who wants to bring the joy of simple, gourmet meals into their own home. As Archbishop of Boston Seán Cardinal O’Malley remarked, “Any home would be graced by a copy of The Vatican Cookbook. It is my hope this book will help people come together to share the goodness of the Lord.”
For a chance to win a free copy of this book, comment on this post or its corresponding Facebook page. We will announce the winner a week from today, on March 20.
