What teachers are saying
“My students are in the 18 plus classroom at our high school. I have verbal and nonverbal students, and they are visual learners and speakers. This resource was an awesome way for them to try and cook small items. I am using this to start our semester and will eventually try to bring in more complicated items. Thank you for providing this cookbook!”
“Great layout and lots of recipes to use. We are waiting for some funding for the food portion, and looking forward to trying this at the end of the year with small groups from our class once a week. They are going to work with the EA in our staff kitchen in small groups - sort of like a 'Breakfast Club' sign up once a week. Thanks!”
“My kids loved using this resource during our lifeskills class! The visual recipes were easy to follow and engaging for the students. My students felt so proud when they completed the recipe independently and this resource made it possible. I even recommend these to my student's parents to use at home!”

This is an excellent resource for teaching real, functional cooking skills in life skills classrooms. I really appreciate that the recipes focus on simple, everyday foods that students can realistically make at home, which makes the learning meaningful and practical.
The visual step-by-step format is clear and easy for students to follow, and the additional materials (tools and ingredients pages, sequencing worksheets, and quizzes) provide great opportunities to reinforce learning. I also like that the recipes share similar ingredients and steps, which helps students build confidence and independence over time.
Overall, this is a thoughtfully designed and highly practical resource for teaching independence and life skills in the kitchen.
