You will see a few more egg dishes down the list but this probably is the easiest to make. Boil a few eggs, mash them up after removing the shell and then fry it along with some veggies and spices for a delicious and proteinaceous meal.

4. Milkshakes

There is no denying the fact that milk sure is nutritious but there is another fact that college students, more often than not, don’t like drinking milk.

However, milkshakes are quite popular among students and if they are fruit milkshakes like mango shakes or banana shakes, and then it becomes even more nutritious.

5. Cornflakes with Hot Milk

If cold milk is not exactly your favorite then you might go for cornflakes with hot milk. This makes for a fantastic breakfast and can be made really quickly.

6. Soup
