Summary: You'll use this all the time
Comment: Some cookbooks are filled with beautiful, delicious recipes that you'll never make because you just don't have the time. This isn't one of those books. I use Betty more often than any other cookbook because, while the dishes may not win any presentation awards, they taste great, and they are easy to make. When flipping through the book, I never have to ask, "what is that and where do I buy it?"
Some of the recipes are best reserved for when you have some time, such as the meatloaf and from-sratch chicken soup, but the time involved is mostly cooking time, so you can start the meal and move on to something else. Most recipes can be made within 40 minutes, with minimal prep time.
There's a good mix of healthy meals and fat bombs, and even some suggestions for turning a fat bomb into something your doctor would approve of.
This is the best general cookbook on my shelf. I have been disappointed with very few recipes in it, and I have made about half of the recipes in the book. It's a great choice for the home cook -- someone who knows his or her way around a kitchen but doesn't have a culinary degree.

Summary: GREAT General Cookbook!
Comment: I wanted a cooking tome that had three basic things: First, I wanted a book that had simple recipes for any occasion, as well as more complex recipes for those daring souls to test their culinary mettle. Second, I wanted cooking tips and advice from professionals. And finally, I wanted color photos of completed dishes as well as photos of preparation.
The only general cookbook that satisfied these criteria, for me, was the Betty Crocker Cookbook. I am very happy with this book, and I will be using it often.
Great for cooking newbies (like me,) and those who simply want tried and true recipes that have stood the test of time.

Summary: Good Food for Real People
Comment: Finally what I've been looking for in a cook book--tasty, nutritious, NORMAL food. No esoteric ingredients, no 27-step prep, no high-stress, split-second timing. This is cooking I can live with and cooking that delights my guests. Food snobs will greet the book with a big yawn, but the majority of American households will have enhanced enjoyment of both cooking and eating as a result of this thoughtful and down-to-earth book.
