Let her know that you are interested in learning how to cook, and does she mind if you help out, so you can try new dishes. Then you can subtlety improve her cooking, without having to ever tell her anything.

That's what my dad once told me. Don't complain about the cooking (I didn't like the baked beans was all) unless you're willing to DO the cooking.

You can't. You've survived up until now and have grown on her cooking, so why say anything now? Learn to cook yourself and take over that responsibility.

Choke it down. Family is more important than a few bad meals.

Volunteer to do the cooking from now on! Everytime she starts to head for the kitchen, cut her off and tell her you got this! After a while, she'll get the message.
