In our apartment, we like to cook as healthy as we can. Living with one vegetarian and one vegan, it takes a little brainstorming to come up with meals we’ll all eat. One roommate said her mom makes some AMAZING stuffed peppers! We all agreed after we took the first bite.
Peppers (personal choice of color)
Ground beef (could substitute chicken or ground turkey)
Diced onion
Diced garlic
Dash of salt
Dash of pepper
Uncooked rice
Ketchup
Tomato soup
Mix together ground beef, salt, pepper, onion, garlic and ketchup and fill hollowed out peppers. Once the peppers are filled, pour tomato soup over stuffed peppers. Cover them with tin foil and bake for 40 minutes at 325 degrees.
This recipe is all up to interpretation! Don’t like something? Substitute it out. Don’t want something in it? Leave it out. These stuffed peppers are a great dinner for any type of college student because they’re easy to make and great for leftovers.

My favorite thing for breakfast, oatmeal! Fill your bowl with any kind you like; apples & cinnamon, cinnamon & spice, maple &
brown sugar, or even just plain. Add some milk, heat it up for about a minute, and you have a healthy & hot option before walking
out the door. Another great way to liven it up would be to add fruit! My favorite is to add blueberries towards the tail end of
cooking to have them burst and create more flavor and nutrients. Such a simple and fast way to get a nutritious meal in before
starting a busy day!
