My son is moving out of the college dorms and into his first apartment. I admit that my first thought was – he is going to starve to death. His specialties are cereal and frozen pizza. So we have spent the summer learning basic cooking skills and compiling easy meal ideas. There are hundreds of cheap and easy college recipes for students to try.
College Recipe from Home
First, we adapted a few of my son’s favorite meals to make them student friendly.
Wild Rice and Hamburger – This meal is based off of a favorite family recipe.
Football Pasta – I have made this easy recipe for dozens of high school football pasta suppers and it was always well received by the players. This makes quite a bit, so it may be best for a dinner party with friends.
Mac and Cheese College Recipe Ideas
My daughter could eat boxed macaroni and cheese every day. Luckily for the rest of us there are lots of ways to dress up that cheap box of macaroni and cheese.
Mac and cheese with tuna – My husband and I lived off this old-standby when we were first married.
Other add-in ideas for mac and cheese include chopped tomatoes, diced ham, and mushrooms. You can also add Velveeta and a dash of extra milk to make creamier.
