While most cookbooks feature specialized fare for rare occasions, or worse yet, optional recipes for unique occasions, these recipes provide clear guidance for the broke but valiant would-be chef who wants to affordably prepare and eat food that is healthy without being either bland or finicky. You'll learn to make granola for breakfast, cake and cookies for dessert, even a few fish recipes. Coffee-making skills get a whole page. Also included are several soups, a delectable way to cook beets, the secret to tasty Brussels sprouts, mung bean dal, banana curry, tasty snacks, and a glossary for those who are still learning about vegetables. Charmingly hand-written and illustrated by two new adults who wanted to share the results of their quest to make food taste good.
