CollegeCandy Heads to Beijing!

Well, not really. But in spirit. Our editors have been chomping on Lo Mein and Wontons all week in preparation for the Beijing Olympics. Since we
couldn't actually get there, we decided to to bring
the Olympics to CollegeCandy. It's comin' at you throughout the day, so look out for it. And
don't forget: the games begin tonight at 8:00 PM.
Don't really care? Come back around 3:30...we
got something that will make it all more fun.

Move Over Pop-Tarts, Breakfast Has A New Pal!

sammy.jpgPoor breakfast is probably the most forgotten meal of the day. In your daily mad-morning-dash to school, work, or play, it is easy to forget to eat something before you leave the house. Now for someone with a packed schedule, a mere bowl of cereal or a single granola bar will not tide you over until lunchtime. Luckily, I have found the perfect 15 minute morning meal that will keep you satisfied longer.

This bacon, egg, and cheese muffin may seem like a standard breakfast item, but tastier than a McDonald’s meal with half the calories!

Now on with the deliciousness!

2 sliced Canadian bacon
2 slices processed American cheese (I recommend Kraft)

Grilled Cheese Is Genius

24810757.jpgI apologize to the lactose intolerant, this may seem a bit insensitive. But I love me a grilled cheese.

Something about grilled cheese is so fantastically comforting. It’s crunchy, yet gooey. It’s not too hot, it provides the perfect amount of warmth. It can be dunked in tomato soup, or can stand alone. And anyone from the age of 8 onward can make it! Just be careful not to burn it.

A recipe for grilled cheese may seem foolish, but it can be an art form. And yummy as the diner-style ones are, you can make a healthy one in two seconds. And it’s still delicious.

Sammich for one:

2 slices of 2% milk American cheese
2 slices whole wheat or multigrain bread
non-stick cooking spray
frying pan

Assemble your sandwich (I have faith you know how to do this). Spray the exposed bread on each side with non-stick cooking spray and put them in the frying pan, letting the bottom piece of bread toast and allowing the cheese to start getting melty. Flip as you deem appropriate to toast the other side and melt the rest of the cheese. I prefer my bread to be a golden brown but some people are pickier about the crunch factor. Read More »
