Cooking in College: Top 5 Dorm Room Essentials
Cooking in college, even in a dorm room setting, is possible. All you need are a few dorm room essentials and then you’ll be prepped to make tons of your own, easy and healthy meals.
In the video below, I share my “Top 5” items to get you cooking in college, right in your dorm room or small kitchen. Then, once you’re all set up and ready to go, you should check out my cookbook, Kitchenability 101, which is full of recipes for easy college cooking.
This site is dedicated to easing new cooks, especially cooks starting out without the conveniences of the typical big home kitchen, into the wild and fun world of preparing their own meals, which is often a much healthier and affordable option for students.
And, as a recent college grad myself, I’m here to help answer any questions you may have along the way.
