The 1950s came with the rise of Elvis Presley, Rock n Roll music, the civil rights movement in America, and much more. The United States' military power was considered the World's strongest, and the country's economy flourished. In this era, many homemakers enjoyed the convenience of pre-packaged foods, especially for baking and canned foods. Grocery stores were now offering a variety of canned meats, fish, vegetables, fruit, flavored gelatin powders, baking mix, and much more, making it easier for home cooks.

It was in the 1950s that homemakers started to innovate and use new kitchen appliances, making cooking easier for every homemaker. Jello was in with the appearance of towering Jell-O molds or serving warm tuna casseroles at every potluck party. Many dishes also have Chex-Mix, Spam, and pineapple, a Hawaiian influence that still perdures today.

In this cookbook, you'll find over 110 of the most popular and classic recipes from the 1950s. You won't have to seek out these recipes in old closets or forgotten cupboards anymore because this cookbook has them all organized in one place!
