Product Description

Metro's "Five essential reads" for students.

"Joy May's guide teaches you how to use affordable and
easy-to-get ingredients to make simple recipes that are a lot more exciting
than the usual pasta or beans on toast". --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

Book Description

This recipe book was inspired by the writer's son who left for university with virtually no cooking ability. He did, however, like to eat!
There are 96 full colour pages with photographs of each recipe - most students seem to complain that "they can't see what it looks like" and so they don't bother.
No measuring scales are required - only a mug, tablespoon and teaspoon. These are found in student kitchens but not much more!
The stitched and glued spine, heavy plastic cover and glossy pages allow it to be laid out flat without damage and rubbed clean easily. All this makes it ideal for "challenging" student kitchen environments.
The recipes are planned so that you need the minimum of pans, dishes and utensils.
The star ratings ***** are an indication of how easy the recipes are.
Most of the meals in the book are healthy and well balanced but there is the odd over indulgent one!
Approximately half the recipes are either vegetarian or have a vegetarian alternative. If you are a "fish eating vegetarian" then there are plenty of recipes for you also.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Value For Money Book For Value For Money Meals!, 22 Oct 2007
By Mr. M. Knee (England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book has revolutionised my eating habits!

The idea of writing a menu for a week and thus planning what you need to buy will also revolutionise your spending habits too.

Gone are the days of a freezerful of expensive processed foods, The days of healthy, fun, real food and cooking are here!

Everything about the book is brilliantly thought out, from the font and pictures to the dish difficulty rating and the "how long can I keep this....?" section.

The recipes are mostly quick, use a minimum of equipment and are healthy too - packed full of good, inexpensive vegetables. One of the best things I've discovered is the ease with which you can modify a recipe. You can generally add and subtract according to your tastes. I never stick to the sample menus (I'm fussy), but I'll make my own up.

Recipe's I highly recommend:
-Monday Pie
-Creamy Chicken
-Pasta & Chicken Bake
-Sausage Pie

5.0 out of 5 stars Quick, easy and verrrrrrry yummy!!, 18 Oct 2006
By R. Tiffen - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I had the original copy of the book and loved it so much so just had to get the new one! Particular favourites are the quick and easy cheesecake -always wows the guests! Being able to make your own chinese too is great, lemon chicken and sweet and sour chicken! I could go on and on! But I would definatley reccomend this book, its easy for students to use because it doesnt need you to have lots of kitchen equipment, but i'm a graduate now and still love using it :)

5.0 out of 5 stars Every student should have one, 15 Feb 2007
By David H. Hargreaves "dhargreaves2002" (Guisborough, Teesside) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This guide for students is excellent.
I have had 3 children go through the formative experience of cooking for themselves and their pals at university. As a teacher of 6th form students I wanted to give them good advice on "Healthy eating for a healthy bank balance" and lots of my own children's views are echoed by Joy May.
The book is set out in such a way that you are lead to the next section from the previous one, everything is brought back to basics so everyone can have a go at the excellent, extensive recipes.
If you are going to university in the near future, buy this book, it will repay its value several times.
