Every college student wishes they could eat those amazing home-cooked meals your parents made back in high school. The problem is all day you were either sitting in class, studying or at club meetings. Now all you want to do is go home and veg on the couch while watching Netflix. Really anything sounds more appealing than cooking dinner. When you ask every college student who has access to a kitchen why they don’t like cooking it’s because they say they’re too lazy. However, these fifteen recipes are easy to make, quick (fifteen minutes or less!), and delicious. No more excuses…let’s get cooking.
