Back to College Means Creative Dorm Food Creations

The most creative cooking usually happens when you have to make do with what you’ve got and nothing could be more true then the endless recipes made with instant ramen noodles. When I was in college I won a plastic spray-painted gold spatula for making Pad Thai, using a package of instant ramen noodles, ketchup,  peanut butter and a couple other ingredients; but I wasn’t always that creative, nor did I always have time.

As Labor Day draws closer, students are heading back or already back to college and that means many meals made in the microwave, toaster or simply with hot water. It’s nice to have a quick resource for instant recipe ideas, especially if eating dinner means 2:00 a.m. in the common area of a dorm room. Here are 10 quick and easy meals that can be made with minimal ingredients and require few kitchen tools and little effort.
