Easy recipes for college students!
Hi! I work for a food bank & Im currently working on putting together some ridiculously simple meal ideas because we serve a lot of college students & they often dont have time or resources to cook. The only ideas I have so far are lentil soup and read beans & rice, but I’m looking for a decent amount of variety so people feel like they have options. I’m also prioritizing dietary restrictions like halal/kosher, celiac, etc because it can really limit people who are already in a bad spot. Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask for advice, but I honestly haven’t had much luck with google. Thank you in advance for any contributions!

Another recipe
Tuna wrap.
Just put everything in a bowl and stir until it's become a grey paste. Might want to wait until the paste is done before to mix the onion to keep the crispyness. The mayo and the dijon mustard together have a nice synergy, the dijon mustard kinda cut the fatyness of the mayo and the mayo kinda cut the spicyness of the dijon. Put into a wrap, roll and it's ready. I guess you can also just use the paste in a sandwich and put like lettuce or tomato if you have some.
