As college students it can be difficult to find time to cook food with a busy schedule. However, dining hall food can get old very fast when it is all a student eats. The food in a dining hall is also not always the healthiest, although there are some healthy options.

Cost effective, healthy and easy-to-make meals can be a great way for students to mix things up and try something new and delicious. Below is the recipe for an easy jambalaya.

1. Two cups of white rice

Cooking does not have to be messy, time consuming or expensive. College students typically do not have the time to deal with these things which is why they often do not cook even once they have an apartment.
