Squirrel 0 Report post Posted November 17, 2005 I agree on Chili, one pot full could last me the entire week before I eventually got sick off it. Don't forget soup too, chicken noodle, beef barley, tomato, ect.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thejackal 46 Report post Posted November 17, 2005 Get some good bread, sliced turkey, mayo, lettuce, tomato and onions. Make sandwich, enjoy. Tuna is also good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chadd 916 Report post Posted November 17, 2005 Most stores around here have some pre-cooked chicken strips (not breaded and not deep fried) those are always great to have around. Add them to salad or to pasta or even to soup to add a little more body. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

beaucoup_fish 0 Report post Posted November 17, 2005 Get the 5 pack of kraft Mac + Cheese and 2 heads of lettice w/ good dressing. All good suggestions. My buddy lived on Chili for a week as well. Sandwiches are always easy and healthy (depending on what you put in 'em). I love sandwiches, as long as you have good bread and fixins. Lettuce, however, is generally devoid of any nutritional value. It's like eating water. Get some berries or greens in there. Frozen vegetables are sometimes higher in nutrient value than their fresh counterparts, believe it or not. So that said, grab a bag of frozen veggies and make some stir fry. Steam them if you have to and just add a bit of butter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Except for the minor detail that one thing of Ramen is like your whole daily sodium value, but what the hey, it's a college kid's diet. =D (or mine even, at 16)Missed the whole "grossly unhealthy" bit, oh well. My choice still stands for me! =) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shorthanded67 0 Report post Posted November 18, 2005 Lettuce, however, is generally devoid of any nutritional value. It's like eating water. Iceberg lettuce is the crunchy water. However, romaine lettuce, red/green leaf lettuce, and spinach have lots of nutritional value. Basically as a rule of thumb: the greener it is, the better it is for you. Remember...5 a Day!
