Which Cookbook Is Better for College Kids?

[babywings76]

My niece is attending college and has an apartment. She got invited to a show with another consultant and asked me for my opinion on which cookbook she should get. She's contemplating either the Make it Fresh, Make it Healthy and the Cooking for 2 or More. Thoughts?

2 or more is good date night recipes. But I like to send college students off with DCB cookbook.

The 29 minute books would be good. They want quick and without too many ingredients.

 

[Teresa Lynn]

Not one of her choices but I'd say All The Best!

I like the make it fresh make it healthy. Pigletsmom described it well, more like date night recipes, not really for everyday cooking.

 

[BethCooks4U]

I missed that she had two she was looking at. Of those two I'd say Make it Fresh, Make it Healthy.

Thanks everyone. I looked through the MIF, MIH cookbook and honestly can't picture her ever wanting to cook or eat a lot of those things. She's super picky and new to cooking. So I told her what you guys thought and she's going with the 29 min. one. Thanks for the help!

I'm a college kid and I like all the cookbooks!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE my 29 minutes cookbooks. I get more recipes out of those 2 than others

I think she'll be happy with the 29 minutes. I think all the recipes have ingredients that are easy to find and are not complicated.

Both the Make it Fresh, Make it Healthy and the Cooking for 2 or More are good - but some of the recipes are fussy and use obscure or expensive ingredients.
