Living in a dorm comes with many challenges of its own, food is one of them. Below are some ideas along with recipes that are versatile and easy enough to fix for yourself in the confines of your tiny dorm room.
1. ‘Banana Burrito’ for breakfast
Via Giphy
This recipe is versatile and satisfies all diets. If you’re short on time, easily spread peanut butter or Nutella with your favorite fruit in a tortilla for easy transportation. However, if you have the morning off and you feel like spicing things up a little, throw in some eggs, bacon, and some veggies. Either way, this recipe surely initiates some creativity to mix-and-match the leftover ingredients of your food stash.
