As more and more people turn to this way of life, they need practical advice on every aspect of tiny living. While tiny living has many advantages, it is not without its challenges. The biggest challenge is how to pack your rich and complex life into a small space. Tiny homes often range from 150 to 400 square feet for a single person or coupledramatically smaller than todays average home of 2,600 square feet. So it makes sense that in such small spaces you tend to take a closer look at how you live your life. In Tiny House Cooking you will learn how to meet your needs when it comes to cooking delicious meals for yourself, your family, and your friends in a small space.

Just because you have a small space to prepare your meals doesnt mean you have to sacrifice cooking delicious meals. In tiny homes you learn to maximize the space you have, and this couldnt be truer than in the kitchen. In an age where there is a kitchen gadget for just about every task, this book talks about getting back to the basics of cooking and life. Cooking food is an essential part of daily life. Because of this fact, you need to think critically about how you can meet this need effectively in as small a space as possible. In a tiny house, square footage is at a premium and you must consider how you allocate it very carefully.

Tiny living is a life of intention and deliberate choices. You are choosing to build the right life for you. You have taken a step back to consider every aspect of your life and decided on an alternative course so you can build the life you want to liveone where you are empowered to live, work, and spend your free time as you see fit. In planning your journey to tiny living, you must consider many facets of your new life, including how you cook a simple and delicious meal, and this book will show you the most efficient and easy ways to do it.
