5 Perfect Vegan Meals For Those Living The College Life

1. Vegan "everything" rice is delicious!

I don't have a set recipe for this, but it's pretty simple. Just use your preference of rice and some beans and vegetables. I like to use garbanzo beans, mixed vegetables, and sometimes, I use black beans or tofu for my rice. Add spices and soy sauce, and you got yourself a nice bowl of "everything" rice. If you want a recipe to base it on, here you go!

2. Ramen with tofu and vegetables is my go-to.

Okay, I LOVE ramen! Steam some vegetables and bake tofu that's been marinated in soy sauce or even throw some seaweed in there. I use the Sapporo Ichiban Miso Ramen which I get from Target, and it's the only vegan ramen I found in a store near me so far.

3. Buffalo cauliflower tacos is a default meal in my life!

This is another default meal of mine because it doesn't take much work to make. You just make the batter, mix the cauliflower in, and bake!

4. Black bean burgers are so easy.

Black bean burgers are SO easy to make, especially for college students when you need something quick to make most of the time. I usually just mash up the black beans with a fork, add a ton of different spices and bread crumbs, then mix it up and form it into a patty shape.

5. Vegan Garlic Butter Pasta with broccoli is the perfect alternative to red sauce.

Pasta is always an easy meal to cook! If you're like me and your stomach can't handle too much red sauce, then this is a great option. Along with broccoli, sometimes I'll add mushrooms or spinach depending on what I have on hand which I think can be applied to a number of these recipes.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
