Extremely well-designed, and most of the recipes are satisfying and practical. I'm just worried how useful it will be now that my kitchen is fully equipped.

For nearly a decade, The Healthy College Cookbook has offered time-pressed, budget-crunched students a simple way to enjoy home cooking in their own small apartment kitchens or even dorm rooms. Written by students for students, the book offers hundreds of simple, healthful alternatives to dreary cafeteria fare. The first edition was so successful it returned to print 17 times.
Now, this best-selling cookbook has been revised, expanded, and enlivened for a new generation of students. One hundred brand-new recipes have been added to the old favorites, including expanded breakfast options, recipes for the ever-popular George Foreman Grill, new smoothie creations, and pizza toppings for storebought crusts, English muffins, and pita bases. Recipes require only a handful of easy-to-find ingredients. The book is packed with vegetarian options, and every recipe is as nutritious as it is delicious. Most can be prepared in less time than it takes to order pizza.
Most college students are new to cooking, and The Healthy College Cookbook contains a wealth of information and tips for the novice. It explains cooking terms, describes common spices, and offers basic, sensible advice on stocking a kitchen with equipment and food staples.
The book isn't just for novices, however. Even the most discerning young palates will appreciate zesty Garlic Green Beans with Tofu or lively Mandarin-Mint Salad. These recipes are so quick, so inexpensive, and so delicious that they're bound to become dinner party favorites, years past graduation.

Delicious, and healthy recipes. It is too bad that there are no photos in here, but the recipes are good enough that they are easy to follow and to make well! So far the English Muffin Sundaes were amazing for breakfast. Can't wait to make some of the other meals!

This is a good, basic book for someone just starting out. There are a lot of good suggestions, and the authors keep cost in mind. The recipes are basic and could be made by just about anyone. This book is what it says it is.

This was my first cookbook. It seems kind of slim and unexciting (no pictures, really) at first, but the recipes are fun and interesting. Also cheap and healthy (for the most part). I force people I know who want to get into the cooking biz to get this book. They get excited about it. OR ELSE.
