<p>So guys...I'm trying to eat healthy and I live on campus. Yes, I have a dining hall on campus but I don't like eating that cafateria like stuff, its nassstay. Anyways, I'm looking for some easy 'no cook' and mostly no microwavable food (idk, using a microwave just gives me the creeps). Not a big salad person...there just not filling! Fruit goes bad fast, what else is there? Lol. Looking for low sugar stuff nd not a lot of crazy nasty prepackaged food with all that artificial crap. I need some stuff high in protein as as little processing as possible. I have a fridge in my dorm btw. Also....since I've been at college all I do is 'snack' on granola bars, yogurt, nuts and such and that's been an everyday thing and I'm sure its not healthy. If you could help me incorporate all the food groups (and no meat please) that would be real cool:) thanks in advance, friends!</p>
<p>Nuts and yogurt are healthy if you get the right ones. Oreo cookie yogurt and BBQ nuts aren’t good options- but plain greek and unflavored/unsalted nuts are wonderful choices.</p>
<p>Good protein options are yogurt, nuts, nut butter, string cheese, and things like that. </p>
<p>It sounds like you’re a vegetarian (me too!), which can complicate things a little. Since you’re looking for no cook, vegetarian options, have you looked up any recipes from the “raw food” movement? It’s no cook/low heat and really healthy- it’s also vegan, so no animal products whatsoever. </p>
<p>Also, if you’re looking to eat healthy, you’ll have to stop avoiding fresh food. Just buy smaller quantities more often so you don’t end up wasting them. When I lived in a dorm and had a tiny mini-fridge, I went grocery shopping every three days or so.</p>
<p>Nuts, greek yogurt, fresh fruit, fruit with peanut butter/nutella, tea(s), string cheese, some granola bars</p>
<p>I think these options would probably make me die from starvation.</p>
<p>You should learn how to cook and focus on scrambled eggs in the morning which are absolutely and ridiculously cheap to make as well as yogurt for snacks or supplement to that, and orange juice. Some type of noodle pasta (and probably ramen) for your lunch’s and break’s, and some sort of high protein meat would be good for your final meal. Alternate between that and fish.</p>
<p>The options mentioned above by Princess are missing vital food groups, numerous nutrients, and would require you live on vitamins for your entire time if you wanted to have any semblance of healthy development, otherwise you’d be living but your body would be damaging itself to sustain you by devouring its own fat.</p>
<p>Eating most food raw will end up with a plethora of diseases and virus’s in your system.</p>
<p>Sprinkle in apples and oranges around your week, they won’t go bad if you actually eat them.</p>
<p>I had a rice cooker in the dorms. I occasionally steamed things in there too, like meat buns and etc. I’m sure there is more you could do with it too. Steam fresh veggies to go with the rice?</p>
