"Clueless comes to the kitchen with this officially licensed cookbook, featuring 50 totally delicious recipes, iconic movie quotes, full-colour images from the film, and much more. Use it to make your '90s-themed gatherings even more legit, or for meal ideas anytime you're feeling a little clueless.

Witty, charming, privileged Cher Horowitz leads the pack at her Beverly Hills high school in Amy Heckerling's cult classic Clueless. Through the eyes of style-obsessed Cher, we join in the fun of makeovers, the rollercoaster ride of crushes and friendships, and the social hierarchy of high school. Inspired by the snacks, drinks, and meals highlighted throughout the film, the Southern California healthy eating craze, and the best of the 1990s, the recipes in this official cookbook are tribute to the adventures and calamities of Cher, Dionne, Tai, Murray, Josh, Travis, and all the rest of our favourite Clueless characters.

From take-it-with-you options like Gnarly Skateboarder's Breakfast Sandos to homemade versions of snack foods that litter the lunch tables at Cher's school (Off-the-Diet Popcorn, anyone?), the recipes in this cookbook bring the personalities and narrative of Clueless to life.

Some of the featured recipes include:

- Beverly Hills Yogurt Parfaits

- Party in the Valley Pretzel Bites

- Family Dinner Rosemary Focaccia

- Gooey Baked Brie with Crudites

- Total Betty Turkey ""Bacon Experience"" BLTA

- So-Lo-Cal Chopped Chicken, Avocado, and Herb Salad

- Totally Not Buggin' Baked Goat Cheese Salad with Herb Vinaigrette and Crostini

- Chuckleheads Asparagus Quiche

- Grade-Changing Grilled Spinach Pesto Chicken Breasts

- Extra Credit Steak Caesar Avocado Wrap

- Tai Lattice Peach Pie

- Cute Plaid Lemon Sugar Cookies

- Full-on Monet Raspberry Vanilla Fro-Yo

- Not-the-Mall-Food-Court Smoothies

- Root Beer ""Pool Party"" Floats

Perfect for families and fans of the film, Clueless: The Official Cookbook is a celebration of the '90s and a tribute to an enduring comedy. So dive in, eat up, and enjoy!"
