In Tasty, Healthy, Cheap, social media and YouTube star Kevin Tatar (@kwoowk) offers cost-efficient, delicious recipes that you'll love to eat and share. Kevin Tatar launched kwoowk because he believes that home cooking is a key part of who you become as an adult. As a self-taught chef, Kevin has made it his mission to guide students and young adults in the pursuit of healthy, affordable, and approachable home cooking. In his first book, Kevin delivers a companion to his shorts and videos: a diverse array of fun, easily accessible recipes, including breakfast, bowls, handhelds, dinners, and so much more. Tasty, Healthy, Cheap covers:

Breakfast Time: Start the day right with peanut butter baked oats, healthy-ish banana pancakes, chilaquiles, or a hearty shakshuka.

On the Go (or at the Desk): Whether you're looking for a handheld meal like a buffalo chicken pita or a delicious Mediterranean pasta salad, these meals are quick and portable for wherever the day takes you.

Instant classics: All the recipes that got Kevin through college, including his power smoothie, butter chicken, and easy congee.

Dinner: For yourself or when you're hosting, enjoy the best black bean burger you've ever tried, chicken fried rice, upgraded ramen, sage butter gnocchi, cacio e pepe, or crispy tofu noodles.

Party essentials: Make your next gathering a smash with the secrets to perfect (and affordable) smash burgers, fully loaded nachos, baked Buffalo wings, or parm-crusted potato wedges.

Sweets and treats: All the right recipes for some after-dinner treats, including a chocolate lava cake, frozen banana ice cream, 2-minute yogurt parfait, and tiramisu.

Throughout, you'll also find key techniques explained and tips to make sure every recipe turns out perfect the first time!
