The January 2014 Cooking Challenge

Why hello, 2014. It’s a new year, a new semester — and, if you’re anything like us, a chance to recommit to cooking more and dining out less (our wallets — and muffin tops — are really begging us on this one). So, in honor of a fresh beginning, we’re launching something new at Collegiate Cook, and we hope you’ll jump in on it:
