Easy Dorm Meals

One thing I learned right off the bat my freshman year was that you will get sick of the dining hall. Very Quickly. However, I started to get the hang of fixing some easy and quick meals that all you need is a microwave (if that). Sometimes you don't feel like eating the same food at the dining hall over and over or maybe you have to do some studying and you don't want to take the time to go to the dining hall. These meals are easy, quick, and you can do it all in just a microwave and they're actually pretty good!

Tuna and Rice:

I kept these two things in my dorm non stop. They both take up virtually no space and when combined the right way they taste really good! There is often times enough to save some for later too! 

The cool thing about this is that there are A LOT of options for the tuna. They have Lemon Pepper, Mexican Style, Plain and they also have chicken if you're not a fan of tuna. I love combining the Mexican Style tuna with the rice, a little bit of Sriracha sauce and even some steam-able corn! 

Healthy Choice Cafe Steamers: 

I am obsessed with Healthy Choice Cafe Steamers. I grabbed this one at the store when I was still living in my dorm and I loved it. The flavors were amazing and it all tasted so fresh. They're $2.50 but, if you think about it, that's a really cheap meal, especially if you're considering the quality of the food you're getting also. This takes less than 5 minutes also!

Ramen Amped Up:

I'm really not the biggest fan of ramen. It has literally no flavor and I hate how soupy it is. However, when you're in college you don't really have a choice. It's cheap and easy to make. So when I have to surrender myself to eating ramen, I like to amp it up a little bit. If you take the Oriental flavor of ramen and mix in a little bit of Sriracha and soy sauce. If you're feeling really adventurous, crush up some peanuts and add that into the mix! It won't taste like ramen for very long! 

What are your favorite meals to cook up really quickly and easily?
