Favorite cookbooks for family dinners

Anonymous
Looking for a cookbook or two that is good for a middle-experience cook mainly focused on family dinners. I'm sick of searching for internet recipes and then finding that they don't work well!

I don't want anything too technical (like not Cook's Illustrated), but am willing to spend an hour cooking so it doesn't have to be super simple. Like Mark Bittman's recipes would be generally more simple than I want and I've found them more suited to cooking for 1 or 2. So something in the middle!

Oh, I've stumbled upon some of her website recipes which have been really good. Would be nice to have collected in a cookbook - thanks!

+1. We cooked so much from her cookbooks over covid times. Everything was good and fairly easy.
