"I was so excited when I saw a microwave cookbook fall into my lap. What could possibly be simpler or quicker than using a microwave! As I browsed through the book, I was incredibly impressed with the cooking times—The Pesto Shrimp Pasta (on pg. 210) is ready in only six minutes! What’s even better is how the introduction provides some wonderful tips on how to get your money’s worth out of your microwave, including cooking techniques, features of newer machines, and much more! This cookbook is perfect for someone who’s on a budget, but doesn’t want to sacrifice quality home cooking. It would definitely make a great gift for your favorite college student who’s stuck choosing between questionable dorm food and Ramen noodles. There’s even a fun bonus section in the back that lists common kitchen conversions which would be useful for any recipe you have lying around the house. This is definitely one cookbook you’re going to want to keep handy!"
