I grew up on this cookbook. Mom was given it when she got married to my Dad in 1962. When I left home, I took her cookbook with me and used it until it literally fell apart. I found a copy on eBay, so I’ll be cooking with Betty Crocker as long as I’m alive!

That's awesome. My mom also received this cookbook as a slightly belated wedding gift. My paternal grandmother got a lovely new kitchen in 1962. She pushed to get it finished before her new daughter in law arrived from out west. The cookbook was grandma's to help her figure out how to use all the new appliances. She and my mom got to spend some time together cooking and then the book went with my mom to the air force base in Northern Michigan where Dad was stationed. I learned to cook with this book and still rely on it for good advice. I love all the pictures and the party ideas.

I have a crazy story about this cookbook. In the mid 1990s, I came home for Christmas and my mother gave me this cookbook. It had been hers since she was newly married in the 60s. We still bake Ethel’s sugar cookies from it to this day. I packed it up in my luggage. Headed for California from the Midwest on a greyhound. When I arrived at my final destination, my luggage was lost! It took two weeks to find my luggage which had ended up in lost luggage somewhere in Texas, I think. Once I finally got to go through the suitcase, I was missing all of my shoes, a pair of men’s tidy whiteys had been added. But the cookbook was still there. That was the only thing I cared about.

A note about cheese…. Pre-grated cheese has an anti-caking agent added, so for a recipe where melting is important, it needs to be freshly grated at home. Also the harder the cheese, the less “melty” it is. I try to sneak in a small bit of velveeta, American, or Monterrey Jack when I can. If the recipe has beer, wine, egg yolk, or mustard then the cheating isn’t necessary. The tamale pie is killer!! My grandmother used to make it. ❤

When I was a teenager in Ontario, Canada, my friends and I would go to the movies and stop by a very popular restaurant near the theater, and get what they called a "Western Sandwich", same exact ingredients as this recipe. I really loved it, even though I was not an egg eater at the time. Thanks for the memory on this one. On the lumber Jack macaroni, I would use even less of the Worcestershire Sauce, maybe only 1 Tbsp. for the 1/2 recipe and I would drain the macaroni put it back in the hot pot rather like you would for Kraft Dinner., and then add the other ingredients as you did. Thanks so much for sharing these recipes and for your commentary at the end. Have a Blessed day.

Have you ever came across the better homes and garden junior cookbook? I was gifted it as a child and you wouldn’t believe the amount of amazing recipes in there. Even my mom used it. Our favorites were the snickerdoodle recipe and the caramel corn one.

Yes! I believe my Grape Surprise Salad video is from the BHG Junior Cookbook. I love cookbooks for children in general. 😁
