When the rice is cooked, cut the vegetables into small pieces and put them on the rice. You can steam vegetables with water if necessary. Continue to cook in the microwave for 5 minutes, or until the liquid is absorbed and the rice and vegetables become soft.
Pour the sauce on it. Tip: If you have a community kitchen, you can use a microwave oven or stove to cook many grains, such as rice, quinoa or couscous. Then, it is divided into separate bags or containers and stored in the refrigerator for reheating in the microwave oven. If you use this method, skip the first step and heat the rice directly.
2. Roasted chicken pizza ingredients: 1 big pita cake cooked chicken, chopped or chopped (see tips) barbecue sauce Cheddar cheese or mozzarella cheese optional: vegetables, such as peppers, onions, tomatoes, jalapenos Usage: Spread baking juice on pita cake. Top with chicken, cheese and optional vegetables. Microwave 1-3 minutes until the cheese melts.
Tip: For chicken, buy a roast chicken, then chop it up and save the rest for later, or scoop a chicken breast from a restaurant. If you can use a crock in your dormitory, you can use barbecue sauce to make chicken in the crock.
Aberhart said: "We tell students to buy chicken in large packages, not just a piece of chicken breast or a small bag of chicken at a time, because it may be much more expensive."
3. Baked sweet potato ingredients: 1 big sweet potato: 1 can of salty pepper, 2 tablespoons of sweet brown sugar or honey. Usage: Pierce the potato with a knife and fork, and heat it in the microwave oven for 5-8 minutes. Take it out of the microwave oven and cut it in the middle.
If canned peppers are used, microwave them in a safe bowl or cup. Then, pour the pepper on the sweet potato. If you use brown sugar or honey, just pour it on the sweet potato.
Tip: Sweet potato is a cheap and nutritious food. Each sweet potato costs about 50 cents. Sweet potato is rich in fiber, vitamin A, vitamin C and manganese. You can also leave them outside the refrigerator for up to two weeks, which will come in handy if your small refrigerator doesn't have enough space!
4. "zoodles" Ingredients: 1-2 zucchini 1 can of tomato sauce Usage: spiral zucchini. If there are no screws, cut the zucchini into long strips. Put the zucchini in a safe bowl in the microwave oven and add a few spoonfuls of tomato sauce. Put a wet tissue on a bowl and heat it in the microwave for about 2 minutes until the zucchini and sauce are heated.
Tip: You can buy a small hand-held screw for less than 10. If you often cook zucchini noodles, it is much cheaper than buying pre-pickled zucchini and much easier than cutting zucchini. If you want something extra, put the chicken left over from the barbecue pizza on it!
5.? Oatmeal or overnight oatmeal. Ingredients: 1/2 c oatmeal 1 c water half C. Fresh, frozen or dried fruit, optional 1 tablespoon. Usage of brown sugar, honey or maple syrup: Put oats and water together in a cup, bowl or jar.
If you want to cook hot oats, microwave for 2 minutes or until the water is absorbed. If you want to make oatmeal overnight, cover the container and put it in the refrigerator overnight. Once you are ready to eat oatmeal or overnight oatmeal, add some fruits and sweeteners.
Tip: Oatmeal is easy to buy in bulk, and the shelf is stable, which means that you can keep it for a long time, get the price advantage of buying in bulk, and don't take up refrigerator space. Similarly, if you have a meal plan, it can make your recipes cheaper.
"Most restaurants will allow you to take a piece of fruit with you when you leave, so if you have this option in your diet plan, bring a piece of fruit home," Aberhart said.
