Attention all Commuting College Students!!!!<\/p>\n

Have you ever had an issue trying to figure out how to eat throughout your day on campus between driving and running to classes? Well I’ve compiled a few meals that I’ve used to get me through the day. Here’s 10 possible ideas that you can use:<\/p>\n

\"car-drive-food\"<\/a><\/p>\n

1. Ramen Noodles: ready in 10 minutes from the microwave and you can use it in different recipes (e.g. beef & broccoli or mac n’ cheese)<\/p>\n

2. PB&J: quick and easy to make and it’s not too messy to eat while you’re driving to school<\/p>\n

3. Oatmeal-to-go: in a cup and add water and microwave for a few minutes (the Dollar Tree sells them)<\/p>\n

4. Yogurt: easy to transfer and store in a lunch tote. Most stores have a brand on sale (from 10\/$10 to 10\/$4.40)<\/p>\n

5. Tuna & Crackers: quick to make and easy to eat between classes. It is also very filling when using crackers instead of making a Tuna-fish sandwich.<\/p>\n

6. Leftovers: when cooking dinner at home, set aside some of your meal for tomorrows lunch. You can microwave it to warm it up at school.<\/p>\n

7. Frozen Dinners: Purchase some meals from the Dollar Tree or other local store and cook it before you leave in the morning and warm it up in during your break.<\/p>\n

8. Protein Bars: Any type of bar (Nutrifruit, Special K, Breakfast Bars, etc.) is easy to transport, quick to eat as you run from one class to another throughout the day.<\/p>\n

9. Shakes: although they are not meals, they can hold you over until you have a big break between classes to get food. You can make them at home and use protein, fruits and vegetables to make it healthier.<\/p>\n

10. Cereal: There are many ways to eat it. If you have time, in a bowl with milk. With fruit on the side or in the bowl. You can even eat it dry, while you’re driving or walking to your next class.<\/p>\n

So there you guys have it, 10 easy and fairly cheap meal ideas for us commuters who have to run to make it to class on time.<\/p>\n

If you have a different idea, post it in the comments below and let’s try to create a list to help each other out.<\/p>\n

Your fellow college commuter,<\/p>\n
