Cheap Meal Ideas For College Students

When you go to college you might plan on eating pizza and fast food everything but over time those things can get old and even expensive. It is much cheaper to make food at home, but most dorms do not have or even allow certain types of cooking supplies. If you want to save money by making your own meal, try one of the simple and frugal ideas.

Sandwich Wraps
You can make sandwich wraps using tortillas and just about anything you have in your fridge. Add some veggies and some lunch meat or some leftover chicken tenders and some sauce and you have a filling and snack or lunch.

Loaded Pasta

Macaroni and cheese are cheap and easy to make in a dorm but you may get tired of eating them. To make them more appealing and satisfying add some tasty topping and ingredients to them. A can of tomatoes and peppers added to macaroni and cheese gives it some spice and a great flavor and hotdogs give ramen noodles a savory flavor.

Fruit Dips
Craving something sweet, cheap and easy to make? Why not make a fruit dip. Just combine your favorite fruit with pudding or whipped cream and dip crackers, chips or anything else in it. Store it in a mini fridge to keep fresh.
