Breakfast and Dinner are often thought of as the most important meals of the day, but skipping lunch is not always a good idea. Here are five easy recipes that should incentivize eating a proper lunch.
One of the easiest of easy recipes, grilled cheese is also endlessly versatile. It pairs well with many other foods, and can be altered and upgraded with various additional ingredients such as meat, veggies, or sauces. Due to it’s simplicity it’s also a snap to make, so you don’t need to worry too much about scheduling some time to make one. There’s also plenty of nostalgia associated with this classic of classics, so that’s also a plus. While the recipe says to use cheddar, you can replace with other cheeses if you feel like it.
The Second of our easy recipes takes only 25 minutes, but makes 12 servings, enough to cover lunches and possibly dinner as well for an entire week. If you feel like you’ll get sick of eating this soup before then, you can halve the ingredients. Chicken soup also pairs well with many other dishes, so you can mix up some other foods to serve along with it. If you happened to eat a roast chicken or recently, you can make this soup using the leftover. You, know, you could probably use turkey instead if you’re making this sometime after thanksgiving. I know that’s a while off, but food for thought?
The next of our easy recipes is one near and dear to my heart. Egg Salad is an extremely simple and versatile dish, and is delicious if prepared correctly. You can make sandwiches or just eat it on its own, there are a lot of possibilities. Another great thing about egg salad is that you can modify it to a ridiculous extent, depending on what kind of taste or texture you want it to have. Basically every ingredient is “to taste” and I usually just eyeball most of the ingredients. It’s incredibly easy once you get the hang of it.
Number Four on the list of easy recipes is another classic. Chicken salad has a lot of the same benefits as egg salad when it comes to ways you can serve it. It goes well with lettuce in sandwiches, and there are are many ways you can tweak this recipe, such as adding grapes or olives if you enjoy them. This recipe takes practically no time at all to actually prepare, and if you make a large batch it’ll last you a good while. I’d be a bit more careful about eyeballing ingredients here than with egg salad, but there are many great ways to modify this dish. Overall its an easy, affordable, and versatile recipe you should absolutely try out.
The last of our easy recipes is something a bit more exciting than just regular sandwiches. These oven-cooked delights are a snap to make, and you can reheat if you’d rather eat them over the course of a week. They don’t require too much specialized cookware, so you should be able to do this as long as your dorm/apartment has an oven.
