Ya'll have you all gone online and got a recipe that tasted like crap?

That is me 97 percent of the time. And as someone who is not naturally gifted in the kitchen, I need a good recipe for 20 to create some delicious, cheap, nutritious meals. Anyone know of any tried and true cookbooks/ websites?

I swear these folks throw off the recipes on purpose. I not bad a following directions. Smh.
