Math Fraction Cookbooks!

Today in my AM and PM math classes, we shared a delicious project! The task of this mini-project was to find a favorite recipe with at least four fractions in it. Then, rewrite the recipe for half the amount of people it serves and then again for  3 times the amount of people the original recipe serves. For an added bonus, if the students made the recipe to serve a third of the people in the original recipe and brought it into class today, they were able to choose a homework pass or 5 points added to their extra credit ticket. Needless to say, we had a lot of fractional food in my room today! :) Everything was delicious and we all had a great time! The students enjoyed the food so much that they were asking for the recipes. Below are links to each cookbook. Enjoy and feel free to leave a comment!
