From the Publisher
Just a sample of what’s on the menu:
Something for every taste
These recipes are fast and easy but include a ton of variety and nutritious ingredients, so there’s always something tasty to throw together before class. Try the Avocado Toast with Poached Egg and Tomato Salad, featuring the brain-boosting benefits of fresh avocado.
Basics, but never boring
These recipes include simple staples and classic favorites but offer easy ways to take the basics up a notch. The Pasta Puttanesca shows you how to liven up plain pasta with the brininess of capers and olives and the heat of red pepper flakes.
Dorm-room friendly foods
There’s no need for fancy kitchen tools or extra counter space with these simplified favorites. The Chocolate Brownie Mug Cake uses a mug instead of a mixing bowl or a cake pan and can be made directly in the microwave so you don’t even need an oven.

Sent this to my granddaughter when she went away to the university… she and her friends LOVED it.

Marked off exactly 100 recipes to try
I don’t know how many total recipes are in this book, but as compact as it is (in size), there are a fair amount. I am FAR from being a traditional college student at age 50, but I love the simple recipes with simple (amount of) ingredients.NGL, I’m kinda lazy AND legit have ADHD so keeping things easy and streamlined is key in order for me to not short circuit my brain and body (be that with the actual cooking or shopping for too many ingredients, and obscure ones to boot). I’ve finally made it through my perusing stage of all then mains, appetizers, sides, desserts, etc. and tabbed a final selection of 100 recipes with posted notes. My goal is to try 5-ish a month cooking from scratch more. I’m in the midst of a weight loss countdown of 10 lbs and extra appreciate the included caloric breakdowns as well as the healthier slant of recipes.The recipes are pretty straightforward and should appeal to most everyone with the possible exception of super vegans and those annoying picky eaters. Beginner cooks of all ages will benefit from the concise cooking, prep, pantry, and cookware tips. Great standalone gift or accompanied with a store gift card, kitchen gift basket, or kitchen cooking appliance or set.

I gave this to my college freshman nephew.
Heâs away at college for the first time, and heâs bound to be tired of dorm cafeteria food by now. With any luck he will find it useful and at a minimum use it as a source for recipes he can adapt as his tastes and needs change.

Great options for college students!
This was exactly what I was looking for. Many fast, simple, healthy recipes for people short on time but tired of eating out.

Fast Read
This book is good reference for when I check on mom and she doesnât know if she ate or not, and itâs close to her bedtime. This book gives me fast great ideas, much better than Door Dashing fast food. Easy to read and no fluff. Good value

Surprised?
I was surprised this book arrived in such a small package. Turns out it’s in a compact 6×6 format, thick, and it does NOT fold flat. Can’t make any kind of an intelligent comment on the contents; if I could, I wouldn’t need to buy a book.Prolly not a bad deal for $8, but in spite of it’s apparent shortcomings, I won’t return it. There are many simple recipes to try, so I suspect it will fulfill its mission of keeping me from starvation.

il libro è pieno di ricette utili per chi, come me, vive lontano da casa e ha appena iniziato a sperimentare ricette un minimo più complesse. Do quattro stelle perchè non ci sono le immagini dei piatti annessi.
