Impressions:
The College Cooks cookbook is a great cookbook for anyone who is in college or even those who have long since graduated but still want simple and fast meals. They have everything from burgers to tilapia, and even include some healthy food options, something that is missing from a vast number of “college cookbooks”. I was also impressed that they included recipes for homemade dressings and sauces. It’s so much easier to just go to the store and pick up a ready made dressing or sauce, but homemade tastes so much better. The menus they included was an awesome idea- of course the first one was date night, I mean why else does anyone go to college?! I really enjoyed “Taylor’s tips” that were spread throughout the book- they were helpful and cute. The only thing I thought was missing in this cookbook was “cook once, eat twice” recipes or better freezer instructions for meals, or even an entire section on freezer appropriate meals (I know this was kind of covered at the beginning of the book, but a more specific directions would be good- who wants to flip to the front of the book to find out how long they can freeze their date night lasagna for?)- I mean no one has time while in college- we’re out partying, dating, drinking… oh and occasionally studying!

My overall impression of the book- it was a nice simple cookbook, something I will definitely look forward to using. I give this cookbook 4 Hippos!(Guest post by Book Loving Hippo)

Welcome!

Hello everyone! Welcome to my blog!

I have to admit, I'm only a home cook and baker, but I love cooking and baking so I figured I might as well share some of my adventures with others! I like to try new recipes I find online and also in cookbooks. I've been inspired by shows such as Top Chef, MasterChef, and Hell's Kitchen.

If you love cooking or baking, or if you just love food, then please join me! I'll post recipes I've tried (both those that have succeeded and those that have failed), comments about restaurants that I visit, and reviews of cookbooks. My friend, Book Loving Hippo, got me started on reviewing cookbooks- I mean there are so many cookbooks out there, its nice to find out a bit about them before actually having to purchase them!
