"Betty Crocker's Cookbook" (New and Revised Edition -- 1980)

From the back of the book: (Remember this was written in 1979)

There's a new you. Your tastes, interests, and schedules have changed. You're more time-conscious, energy-conscious, dollar-conscious. More than ever you're preparing meals from scratch with fresh, natural foods -- perhaps even in a microwave. You're preserving and freezing. You're baking bread. You're entertaining at home. You're eager to try new and adventuresome recipes.

This new and revised edition of Betty Crocker's Cookbook was developed especially for the new you. Easier than ever to use, it's organized just the way you plan your meals -- with meats and main dishes first. It's packed with know-how, show-how, and how-to. More than 1500 recipes...299 full-color photographs...cooking hints...shopping tips...charts...line drawings.

And every recipe has that Betty Crocker "difference" -- the guarantee of success that comes through testing in the Betty Crocker Kitchens and in homes across the country.

Betty Crocker's Cookbook: the best of the old with the best of the new -- the cookbook for the new you.
