Hostel Cookers is a collection of recipes from travelers around the world. Our goal is to have simple recipes for backpackers to make while on the road. To us, this means limited ingredients, limited tools (ovens hardly ever work in hostels), and relatively quick to make.
If you have a recipe you’d like to share please do!

About HostelCookers
Here you will find easy to prepare recipes for travelers. We have been backpacking on and off for almost five years gathering recipes in hostel kitchens wherever we go. We've included all of our favorite hostel recipes.
We try to use only a couple ingredients and to keep everything healthy. Vegetables can be few and far between when traveling.
