Congratulations! You are moving into your apartment to start another year of college! But what's that? You don't know how to cook?! Well, have no fear. These are the five easiest meals that even the worst cook can make in no time at all.
1. Easy Mac/Ramen
Possibly the easiest thing to make in an apartment when you're in a hurry. Just follow the instructions on the box or package and you're good to go.
2. An omelette
Not only a good source of protein, an omelette is also a fantastic way to eat lots of veggies. Scramble two eggs and put in a small pan. Let it cook flat then put cheese, bacon, and whatever else you want in there. Cover it with a lid and let it cook. When it's cooked, flip half of it so its folded in half. Let it cook a bit more then enjoy!
3. Pasta (and jarred sauce)
This is at the Ramen/Mac and Cheese level of difficulty. Just put some pasta in a pot of boiling water, wait until it's cooked, then drain the water. If you like sauce, open up a jar and dump it in a separate pan. Wait for the sauce to heat up then put it over the drained pasta. If you really want to be fancy, defrost some cut veggies or take some fresh ones and add them into the pasta. You could also add chicken for some protein. Put it on a plate and voila! You're done.
4. Salad
Making a salad just involves ripping up lettuce (or you could buy lettuce pre-ripped in a bag), dumping it into a bowl, and adding other veggies, chicken, cheese, and/or dressing to it. It's the easiest thing ever and super healthy to boot.
5. Take-Out Leftovers
If all else fails, just eat leftovers from another meal you made or take-out leftovers. Just A) make sure they're in fact your leftovers and B) make sure they haven't gone bad.
Happy eating and have a great year!
