Im a horrible cook - HELP!

I love my betty crocker cookbook, because it has illustrated pictures on how to do just about everything, has definitions for all the cooking terms, yields and equivalents, as well as recipes. I don't do the recipes as much since I look most recipes up online, but it's a great reference for all the basic stuff. I didn't really know how to cook much when I moved out of my house either. I remember one Thanksgiving my mom joked that she was exhausted from opening cans all day lol. You can also find you tube videos that show you how to do just about any cooking technique. And don't be afraid to try knew things. You may mess up a few meals, but it's a learning experience and it just takes practice to have it down. Good luck!

Love the Betty Crocker cookbook - you cannot go wrong. I love to cook, but I do refer to that cookbook all the time and out of like 50 cookbooks that I have, that one stays on my counter. Once you make something that tastes fantastic, it might get you more excited about cooking. Good luck!
