@jenniferbelovedchild I have a Ninja Foodi—combination air fryer/instapot—that I cook 90% of my food in.
Looking for Easy, Cheap, and Delicious Recipes for College Students

The first thing they need to get is a beach wagon to carry groceries home in. It will allow them to purchase more things in bulk stretching their dollars further. Food gets heavy FAST and unless their grocery store has handheld baskets or half sized carts it's super easy to load up the buggy with more than you can easily carry more than a block. Using canvas tote bags instead of plastic bags will save ALOT of headaches too. They don't make those bags like they used to and there is nothing worse than having your bag rip halfway home.

You could do omelette’s in a bag! You could have bowls of diced ham, cheese, veggies, whip up eggs, put a big pot of water bring to a boil drop baggies. I get the freezer bags quart size add a ladle of egg, add the items you want in the bag put it in the boiling water cook for about 2 minutes.
Sausage Veggie stirfry is easy and healthy.
In large skillet, place:
1 pkg Polska Kielbasa sausage, sliced.
Any mix of frozen vegetables you prefer. I like broccoli & cauliflower, but any veg will work.
Hash browns or tater tots, or a large potato cut in bite-sized cubes.
1/2 cup beef broth. Salt, pepper & garlic powder to taste.
Simmer in the broth until veggies are tender.

@onefreespirit that sounds so good!! Gonna try it next time I make it!!
Bag of frozen meatballs. Place in a pan. Mix 1 can cream of mushroom soup, 1 can beef broth, 1 pkg onion soup mix and 3 Tbsps worchestire sauce and some black pepper. Pour over meatballs. Bake in oven for 30 mins at 350 F. Meanwhile cook about 2-3 cups pasta( whatever kind you want). When pasta is done drain. When meatbells are done mix pasta in. It’s very good and easy with little prep! Good luck to the students! Practice makes perfect. We all started somewhere
I'm not sure if it has a name so-
pasta
marinara
Alfredo
mozzarella
boil your noodles, strain, put noodles back in your pot. mix in a jar of marinara sauce and Alfredo sauce(or add to your liking), you can add meatballs if you'd like for protein but add the noodles into a pan, add cheese on top, bake, easy and tasty meal.

Classic grilled cheese and tomato soup……. Highly recommend by my newly 18 year old who’s freshly graduated herself
They can add the precooked bacon slices to the grilled cheese inside or even slicked tomato if they like those as a delicious spin on a classic!
You each are doing fantastic, this can be a scary and confusing time however you are doing this and kicking butt along the way. Never give up on yourselves, keep following your dreams and doing what makes you happy! You all are the future of our world and we are so proud of each one of you

Take thin sliced chicken breast and marinate in ranch dressing(overnight for best flavor but don't have to) and bake at 375 for 20 mins. Serve with any side
