Time to Be a Student Chef!

With university being potentially the first time many have independence away from home, this may be the first time you have had to plan cooking for yourself. Here are some simple recipes to make that will be easy and tasty!

 

Pasta Bake

A pasta bake is wonderful for any beginner cook and can be made with exactly what you like. Pasta is quick, easy and inexpensive, making it wonderful when trying to manage your money at Uni. Pasta can also be very easily made for multiple people too which makes it a go-to when it comes to having guests over for dinner.

 

 

Curry 

The beauty of curry is it can be as complex or as simple as you want it to be. Whether you buy a premade jar with rice or make it from scratch it will always taste amazing and fragrant. With there being so many variations of curry, there is something out there for everyone to enjoy.

 

Traybake 

Traybakes are especially valuable to a student as they not only taste amazing, but they don’t require as much attention to make due to them being made in the oven. This means during your wait you could get some studying done or clean up your living space. Traybakes can also serve lots of people which means it’s wonderful when having people over for dinner.

 

 

Soup 

Soups may seem bland, however,
stored soup tins usually stay in date for a very long time making them an ideal backup for student meals. They are also very inexpensive making this an excellent meal for everyone to have at least a few of in their household.

 

 

Baked Potatoes

Baked potatoes are simple and are great with anything. Potatoes are also very cheap to buy and can be prepared in many different ways making them perfect for any meal. Potatoes also keep for a very long time which is amazing when it comes to saving money as a student.

 

Stir Fry 

Stir-frying can be amazingly delicious, very quick to make, and healthy! This meal is particularly perfect for those who hate standing around and waiting when cooking. Noodles are also very easy to cook and don’t require much more than warm water and seasoning.

 

Fajitas 

Fajitas are for those who may want something a little spicier and more interesting, they’re easy to whip up and perfect for any friend get-together. While they may seem daunting and difficult when it comes to handling multiple things to cook, they can be as simple or as complex as you want them to be.
