Two Quick & Easy Meals for Culinary Rookies
By Keith Drucker
Spring 2015
If you asked my floor mates, they would probably tell you that I was the least likely person to write a blog about cooking.
Coming into the Spring 2015 DC program as a second semester sophomore, I have never lived off campus nor considered getting food from anywhere other than the campus dining hall. Needless to say I’m someone who makes the most of my unlimited dining plan. This semester has been a trial-by-fire in planning, preparing and actually cooking meals of my own. So I thought I would include two recipes for quick, easy, inexpensive, and relatively healthy meals that helped me survive the semester.

The Salad Combo:
Begin with a simple base of either: lettuce, spinach or kale (whichever you prefer). Make sure to cut the base into small strips/chunks. For a single person, use about a cup or one handful of the chosen leafy vegetable.
Decide your dressing: Avocado or Greek Yogurt (I would use the yogurt mainly with spinach)
Avocado Dressing: Add tomatoes, cucumbers, onions—basically whatever veggies you like. Cut avocado in half and spoon out the avocado into a bowl, add veggies, and mix well. Add a pinch of salt and lemon for added taste. Note: for a single person, use only about ½ cup of additional veggies combine.
