A top pick for any general-interest lending collection.
Plenty of cookbooks cover whole-grain cooking, but none of the 'stamp' of authority and ease as does the reputation of the long-standing Betty Crocker. Over 140 recipes provide simple ways of integrating whole grains into family meals, offering explanations, chapters on slow-cooker meals and quick dinners, tips on how to cook and eat whole grains, and more. The full-page color photos of finished dishes are appealing and inspirational, making this a top pick for any general-interest lending collection.

Great book for learning how to prepare grains.
We have tried several recipes since getting this book and they have been outstanding. The whole wheat bread recipe is excellent. We recently purchased a Kitchen Aid mixer and do not buy loaf bread anymore since trying this recipe. We look forward to trying more recipes. Lots of pictures, too, for those who like to see what they are making looks like.

Not what I expected
I wanted to buy a cookbook that had more whole grains. It does but not things that I will cook and a lot of the ingredients were cereal, not whole grain flour. No thanks. I returned the book, it wasn't for me.
