Cook books

Do you guys have a favorite go-to cookbook? Mine used to be the Betty Crocker cookbook my mother gave me when I moved out 30 years ago but it is not the most calorie conscious thing out there! Then for years I had some Weight Watchers cookbooks but the ratio of recipes we used to total seemed too low so when I was cleaning house a few years ago, I got rid of the books and only kept the few recipes I liked. (I kept Betty Crocker for sentimental value) My current one is "Snack Girl to the Rescue". I have been able to make quite a few recipes from there and the husband even likes most of them. She has a good blog, too, which is where I started finding some of her recipes.

Any other suggestions? I don't want to have a ton of cookbooks but sometimes flipping through the pages rather than looking on the internet is my best way to find something.

Thanks!

I recently bought: Dashing Dish Cookbook by: Katie Farrell. 100 Simple and Delicious recipes for clean eating. All of the recipes I have tried are very flavorful and low cal. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this cookbook. Katie also has a website that has some free and members only (You pay $5.00/month) for a membership) recipes on her website.

Second on the The Skinnytaste Cookbook! I love every single recipe I've made so far.

Thanks! I just made a Skinnytaste recipe recently. It was chicken pot pie soup and it was quite good. I'll take a look at both suggestions.

Barnes and noble had an offer a few months ago on a Good Housekeeping Cookbook. The cookbook was normally $19.95, with any purchase it was $9.95. It is filled with healthy, filling, delicious recipes. Some of the servings are huge.

Third on the Skinny Taste cook book ! I display it on my kitchen counter on a cook book holder.
My DIL really enjoyed it while visiting so I got her a copy as well. Great photos and recipes.

The Shredded Chef by Mike Matthews.

Chocolate Covered Katie just put one out too. I've really enjoyed making her treats.

Thanks for the further suggestions. I checked out Skinnytaste from the library so I could give it a once over. I'll add the rest to my list. The only problem with reading through cookbooks is I have to do it after dinner or I end up way too hungry!!
