College student friendly recipes.

Do you have a crockpot? If not, it's a great investment. You can throw in chicken, veggies and a can of tomatoe sauce, set it on low for 8 hours, and mmmMmm! Yummy. Fried up eggs are always a quick, easy option. Oatmeal... Again, cheap and super easy. Slice up an apple and throw it in with your oatmeal, and you have a pretty good meal. You might also want to think about setting aside a day a week (ex: Sunday) and cook up a bunch of meals for the week, throw them in the freezer and just pull them out when you're hungry!

Veggies and protein, right there. It shows it right on the package.

I live in a dorm room with no kitchen, which is an absolute travesty. Thus, most of the meals I eat at home are based on plain Greek yogurt or oatmeal, because you can do ANYTHING with them, especially if you invest in some cinnamon. For example, for breakfast, I usually have plain oatmeal cooked with unsweetened vanilla almond milk (I'm sure regular 1% would work too, I'm just picky), cinnamon, an apple from the dining hall, and some nut butter (peanut butter is cheap and DELICIOUS). Same with plain Greek yogurt - if you just mix it with a little cinnamon and some cut-up dining hall fruit, it's a great pre-gym snack. Just throw in whatever you have lying around.

Also, canned pumpkin is a great thing - 50 calories per serving, chock full of vitamin A, a wonderful addition to the foods mentioned above, and approximately $1 a can.
