As a freshman living in the dorms, I always wondered how I was supposed to eat healthy when I had no time or space to cook a well-balanced meal. Living in Sheehan especially put me at a disadvantage, since we only had one kitchen stove to thirteen floors of girls \u2013 the odds of actually getting a period of time in that space to cook for oneself is pretty slim.<\/p>\n
The struggle of maintaining a well-rounded, healthy lifestyle is one that college students know all too well. We stuff our schedules with classes and extra-curricular activities, and balancing our schedules with time to take care of ourselves can be tough. Eating healthy is often put on the back burner.<\/p>\n
What’s the solution?<\/strong><\/p>\n It was not until recently that I started hearing about a new sensation called mug meals. What a mug meal entails is self-explanatory: cooked meals in a mug, done so in the microwave. They were becoming all the rage on Pinterest and food blogs everywhere.<\/p>\n As someone who loves to cook, I was highly intrigued by this. It seemed like a silly thing, but once I realized how quickly I could make a healthy breakfast in a coffee mug to-go, I was sold. I rapidly came to the conclusion that these mug meals would be a great, healthy idea for college students.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
