[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Freshman DS has to be on some kind of meal plan; however, the dining hall food is apparently very bad. 
He's unable to find much that is appealing. He has a fridge and microwave in his dorm, and we have moved his meal plan down to the lowest allowed, which is 10 meals per week. He can use the 10 meals at the dining hall or as "swipes" at a few fast food restaurants in the area.

He is asking me for ideas for healthy-ish meals he can prepare for himself that just require fridge/microwave. He's not allowed to have a toaster, or a toaster oven or do real cooking in his dorm room. The dorm has a kind of kitchen, but it only has a microwave. No access to a stove or oven, basically, and he's not going to do elaborate cooking.

He's got a decent grocery store a 5 minute walk away. The only dining hall (again, food is bad!) is a 13 min walk away from his form.

So looking for easy meal ideas for one, that can be prepped from shelf stable ingredients or fridge/microwave to supplement what he can stomach from the dining hall or fast food restaurants allowed on his swipes. Just until he can move into an apartment with a kitchen - he can cook the basics.  [/quote]

It is always astounding what a bunch of prissy fusspots everyone seems to have.  Dorm food is not appealing?  Shocking.  So what?  Get over it.  Eat or don't.

What a horrid generation of crybabies we're rearing.  And please do come back with your litany of excuses.  I'm sure they're all valid[/quote]
