Welcome to Campus Cookbook! This being the first post, I would like to welcome you to campus cookbook. I hope to add a new post every one or two weeks with each post containing a new recipe, cooking method, or discussion.
This website has two goals. The first is to dispel the myth that cooking is a expensive, difficult and time consuming activity. You do not need fancy cooking utensils or spices. You do not have to slave for hours in the kitchen. And even the best of us have burnt things in the beginning. Eating well can mean spending 15 to 20 minutes making dinner--or less sometimes! It can be cheap and easy and sometimes even fun. The second goal of this website is to help my fellow students save the little money they have. If your campus is anything like mine, it is easy to spend upwards of $8 to $10 per day on food just because making food to bring to school just seems to hard (I've been there).
I hope that you find this blog helpful. If you have any questions, suggestions, or want to see a certain type of recipe on the site, leave a comment and I'll see what I can do.
Enjoy!

The Cook

Learning how to and deciding what to cook while also making sense of calculus, avoiding your next English paper, recovering from Saturday's hangover, and convincing yourself to not skip class is often fairly challenging. Because Kraft dinner gets boring fast, I have created this blog especially for students. The simple, fast, cheap recipes and cooking tips I have picked up along the way.
About the Cook:
- Theresa Chapman
- Edmonton, AB, Canada
- I am a University Student studying Mathematics and Business. Spending time in the kitchen has become a form of leisure and stress management. I hope that I can pass along some enthusiasm for cooking. If this goal is too lofty, I hope I can at least make cooking a little easier for my peers.
