Everyone gets tired of eating the food we have on campus. Not that I don't love Chick-fil-a and Fried Chicken Wednesday, but you know what I mean. A semester of the same foods can get old, and driving off campus (if you even have a car) to get food can be expensive and time-consuming. Here's a list of some quick recipes you can make right in your dorm room!
French Toast in a Mug 
Yes, you read that correctly. It's your favorite breakfast now easily made in the microwave– and it only takes two minutes!
Firstly, cut slices of bread into cubes; cut enough to fill up a large mug (a slice or a slice and a half should do the trick). Just plain white bread is fine, but you can use whichever bread you prefer! Then, melt some butter in the mug and twirl it around until you've got butter on the sides of the mug. Put your bread in the cup with butter, and pat it down so that it doesn't fall out; just don't over-do it, or else your french toast will be flat and won't soak in the mixture you're about to whip up!
In a separate mug, mix together one egg, three tablespoons of milk, and a dash of cinnamon. If you've got it on hand, feel free to add a drop of vanilla extract, but this recipe is yummy even without it. If you don't have measuring tools, you can use a spoon for the milk! Just eyeball it; it isn't hard to see how much is too much or too little. Pour this concoction over your bread in the other mug.
Microwave the bread and egg mixture for at least one minute, then add 10 seconds at a time until it's done to your liking (just be sure your egg isn't runny when you decide to take it out)! Ta-da! You're a master chef and all of your friends will love you if you make this.
Ramen Noodle Deluxe 
Too broke to go out? These simple additions can spruce the ultimate college classic and make that 3 am finals cram a little bit more bearable.
First, microwave ramen noodles in two cups of water in a pyrex measuring cup for five minutes. Then, microwave your favorite frozen veggie mix per the instructions. Add a little soy sauce or your other favorite flavoring, and you're done!
Egg & Veggie Bagel 
This one is a refreshing break from typical take-out and junk food. If you want, you can warm up your bagel in a toaster oven or microwave, but you don't have to. Mix egg whites, a little chopped spinach, a dash of salt in a microwaveable bowl for a minute and a half (be sure your eggs don't overflow!). Put your egg onto your bagel, add a slice of cheese and tomato, and if you're feeling it, microwave some bacon to throw on there!
Pita Pizza 
California Kitchen Pizza brought straight to your dorm!
Spread 1/2 of shredded mozzarella cheese over a pita circle. Then, spread sliced mushrooms to your liking, chopped baby tomatoes, and chopped spinach on top. Microwave this for one to two minutes, and you're done!
