So I know as a mom of a daughter who is in college as a senior. I would never to say to defy the rules, however our kids don’t deserve to starve and or go without. So my daughter and her room mate have both gotten one of these to be able to have more options for food as you can use the waffle maker for all sort of different things for meals. So the school gives the students a 24hr notice of when they do inspections of there rooms so when they get those notices they then put these two items either in there car and or in a tote and or some where they can’t look by law and or have probable cause to look. So please Heed my warning I am just giving other options and hopefully another avenue to have more meal options. Please don’t give it as an idea if your against breaking rules if it should be a rule to them that they can’t come back from or will make them loose their scholarships and or if they are in sports and have a chance of being kicked from their sports. I’ve taught my daughter to be a semi rebel however with classy standards to be able to make it through school and being able to eat. Also just another thing so most parents of college kids know and or understand the cafeteria isn’t always open during the hours that the kids in college need it to be unfortunately and or in sports and or who have late classes. So it’s not always an option for some as well as it’s closed a couple times a year during the holidays.

2 recipes for you 
Piggies in a blanket
Hot Dogs
Block of sharp Cheddar Cheese
Crescent rolls
Preheat oven according to temperature on crescent rolls package.
Cut slices off cheese block the short side (small rectangles)
Slice the hot dogs the long way but not all the way (sliced open but not cut apart).
Put 2 pieces of cheese in dog and wrap them both in 1 triangle piece.
Repeat until all the dogs and crescents are used.
Bake for how long the crescent roll package says.
Tortilla dogs
Hot dogs
Block of sharp cheddar cheese
Tortillas (small ones like for tacos)
Same process as above but you are wrapping them with tortillas and securing them with toothpicks.
Microwave them for 30 second per tortilla dog you make. The cheese should be melted when done.

Tater Tot Casserole
In a casserole dish 9x13 layer:
1) raw ground beef - 1 to 2 pounds depending on preference.
2) can of cream of mushroom or chicken soup.
3) 2 cans of french cut green beans or corn.
4) Salt, pepper, onion powder and garlic powder to taste (a good spinkle of each is a good amount to start), can always add more afterwards.
5) Tater tots.
Cook for 60 min at 350°
Could also add shredded cheese on top of tots.
Serve with garlic bread, or loaf of French or Italian bread.
Good luck and lots of hugs!

Chicken and rice
2 boneless Skinless chicken breasts
White rice
2 cane Cream of mushroom or chicken soup - which ever they like better
Milk.
This is for a 8x8 baking dish… adjust more ingredients for a bigger baking dish
Mix 1 can of soup and 3/4 of a can of milk together and pour into the bottom of the pan. Cover the top of that soup with the rice, not to thick. Then place the chicken on top of that. Mix the 2nd can of soup and another 3/4 can of milk. Mix up well and pour over the chicken and rice. Bake at 350° for 60 minutes or until chicken is done.
I sometimes add a tad more milk so the rice isn’t to dry.

Lazy girl wraps:
Shredded rotisserie chicken (I can usually get a small container near the prepared foods, near the rotisserie chickens for about $5)
Lettuce
Shredded mozzarella
Roasted red peppers (large jar)
Balsamic dressing)
All of these ingredients can easily make 4-5 wraps!
You can also make breakfast wraps with eggs, crumbled bacon (in bags by the salad dressings) and shredded cheese!
