For many college students like myself, eatting healthy is not always possible and many college students are on a shoe string budget for groceries and many students end up eatting food they do not like. This food can include Ramen Noodles, Canned Food, Frozen Food, and eatting fast food such as pizza and hamburgers.
What kind of advice would you give to college students to eat healthy when they are on a budget for food and groceries?

fruits and veggies are a lot cheaper than eating out. try spicing up your noodles with small peices of meat and veggies, kinda like a little stir fry. it’s healthier and yummier. Also, milk, eggs, and flour can make thousands of different foods. For example, Swedish Pancakes. Add a little cinnamin and jam or fruit, they’re delicious and healthy! I eat those for dinner sometimes. You can get billions of recipes online that only require those three ingredients, plus whatever you want to add to it. It’s simple to eat healthy on a tight budget. It’s also cheaper to eat healthier!
Is it possible to get a meal plan at the college? Sometimes they are expensive, but they are covered under your loan. At the college I went to, they had a lot of carb-based stuff, yet they always had a salad bar and soups. You could order veggie burgers or veggie chicken if you wanted to. The dining commons does provide options for you.
If there is no dining commons, grocery shopping is the best way to make sure you eat healthier. There are a lot of healthy cereals out there and you can put fruit in them to change it up a little bit, salads and soups are good during lunch. Even sandwiches are good as long as you stay away from white bread.
If you’re worried about gaining weight, you can let go of the healthy foods thing if you exercise. I’m not saying eat junk all the time. I mean you can have a pot pie for dinner and be OK as long as you are monitoring what you eat and how much you exercise.
Good luck!
Do you really believe that this can be changed?
