Betty Crocker 1500 Calorie A Day Cookbook: 200 Tasty Recipes to Build a Daily Eating Plan (Betty Crocker Cooking) Paperback – December 10, 2012

It’s not surprising that these Betty Crocker recipes are easy to make and delicious, even being lower calorie. Worth adding to your collection.

First, I like the breakdown (fats, calories, sodium, etc.) and dishes for Breakfast, Lunch,Dinner, Snacks, and Dessert. This book gives me ideas on how to cook different dishes.However, It doesn't list how much sugar is in the dishes. Also, some of them have higheramounts of sodium. Worth a read.

Going through the different recipes, I like the fact I am not overwhelmed by a zillion ingredients. Each recipe is simple and so far all recipes I've tried have turned out very good. The colorful, large pictures of each recipe is great, as if saying "try me". It's fun just going through this recipe book, page by page.

I am a fan of Betty Crocker cookbooks. I think the information on calories, low-calorie snacks and meals, pictures, and recipes were nice and easy to follow. I am honestly not to crazy about the recipes, they seem kind of strange (for my taste). However I can be creative and tweak the recipes to my taste. It's also a good guide at getting ideas of what foods give you a specific amount of calories.

This is what you expect from Betty Crocker, a good book with recipes that are not difficult and don't call for impossible to find ingredients. There are some really tasty looking ones.

Excellent content, and recipe ideas , but about 25 % of recipes don't have pictures, but still satisfied with this purchase.

Excellent recipe book. Betty Crocker was ahead of her time.
