At first, in my vigor to become a bona fide person who can prepare an actual meal, I bought a few cookbooks that sounded beginner-friendly ... only to find that the bulk of them were too advanced for my newbie skills, asked for ingredients I never keep on hand (or can't afford) or required equipment I do not own.
Now, I simply photocopy simple-sounding, healthy picks and give them a whirl. If I find I like a number of recipes from the same book, I add it to my wish list to pick up used at my library's annual book sale or an online auction site.
