      Introduction

      Every fall, students leave the familiarity of their parents’ houses and hometowns and arrive on college campuses, ready to move away from their high school days and transition into the adult world. For most, this means living away from home for the first time, meeting new people from different places, and beginning to consider what kind of a career they might want. Very few, however, consider the fact that their new dorms do not come complete with personal chefs.

      No matter what your background, college is going to be a learning experience for you. You might find yourself learning to do logarithms, or learning to do laundry. But whatever you’re studying, you’ll have to eat, and that’s where this book comes in. While you may think cooking belongs at the bottom of your college to-do list, think again.

Eating nutritious meals at regular times helps you sleep better, gives you more stamina, and makes it easier to resist sugar-loaded snacks. Cooking healthier meals at home can also help you avoid the weight gain many students experience in their first year of college: the dreaded freshman fifteen.

      Finally, don’t forget that cooking is fun! Spending Sunday afternoon in the kitchen is a great way to unwind after a hectic week of studying, and mastering new skills gives you a
