The Student Green Office at Canterbury Christ Church University have released their first ever cookbook and it couldn’t be better!<\/p>\n

The book is full of quick and easy budget friendly recipes, as well as healthy dinner time alternatives to ready meals or fast food.<\/p>\n

And what makes the piece even more great is that it’s written by CCCU second year student Claire Nicholson.<\/p>\n

Claire Nicholson said: “I first got the idea of a cookbook by living with my housemates during first year- their pot noodles really annoyed me.<\/p>\n

“So I thought I’d create something that students could use in order to create some super delicious food, all of which is really cheap.”<\/p>\n

The book contains tasty meal time favourites like pasta and pizza alternatives, as well as irresistible deserts like mince pies and rocky road, but all with a healthy twist.<\/p>\n

Claire said: “My favourite recipe has to either be the mince pies, the rocky road or tuna pasta!<\/p>\n

“I also love the pizza alternatives, they’re slightly addictive.”<\/p>\n

The book has been very popular so far.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Not only are the recipes good for the waistline but they all focus on following some simple sustainable measures, like producing less food waste.<\/p>\n

The cookbook writer explained: “Being more sustainable in the kitchen is all down to reducing food waste and really simple things like making use of your kitchen utensils and the freezer!”<\/p>\n

The book will be put in CCCU accommodation kitchens, so those residents will be able to browse the book and cook up some delicious dishes free of charge.<\/p>\n

Cooking Goes Green is also free to download if you have CCCU login, just click here <\/a>and scroll down to the bottom of the page where you will find the link.<\/p>\n
