Quick, easy student meals

Cooking for yourself everyday is actually a lot of fun, but sometimes you don't have time to make elaborate dishes with heaps of ingredients. Sometimes all you need is a quick and easy meal just to keep you going before rushing off to do something or go somewhere. So here a few meals that I've made for myself that fit in with this category of "quick, easy student meals":

Pizza/ focaccia: 

All you do is pretty much get a tortilla wrap, use pasta sauce as a base, cut up tomatoes, add spinach and grate cheese on half of the wrap. Put in the microwave for a couple of minutes to let the cheese melt. Fold the wrap in half and cut into thirds so it's easier to eat. 

Wrap and side:

Boil snow peas for the side greens. Then have tuna and cut up tomato then mix together with a bit of mayonnaise and put in a tortilla wrap and the left over filling put on the side and I wrapped it in a lettuce leaf.

Pasta:

My all time favourite food is pasta. There is no doubt about it. And this is just frying up an eggplant and adding it into a bolognese sauce. Cook up the pasta to be al-dente and then mix in the sauce and add grated cheese.

Scrambled eggs:

Beat up the eggs, add some soy milk and pepper then scramble them up. Cut up some tomato, spinach and add it to the eggs in a bowl, as well as adding tuna and mayonnaise.

Couscous: 

Once again, boil snow peas for the side, and to cook up couscous by boiling, you then can add various spices to add flavour, add chickpeas, sultanas, peppers etc. I like the Moroccan styled spices and combination which is what this is. 

Risotto:

Typically it would make sense to use risotto rice, but I used long grain and wild rice which you boil to cook up. Meanwhile, fry up zucchini which you then add to the rice once it's cooked and drained of water. Add in a small amount of bolognese sauce and cheese which makes everything stick together to create the risotto consistency.

And those are just a few quick, easy meals to make when you are busy, but are still delicious. And being a student, none of the ingredients and expensive, so it's perfect for us. Also, these meals are filling and keep you going through the night when you need to study/ socialise/ go out and not feel hungry.
