Default favorite meals for current/past college students

I am in my senior year of college, and living off-campus for the third year. My 2+ years of meal-making at school basically consists of oatmeal, turkey sandwiches, spaghetti, chicken, and if I'm feeling ridiculous, Tuna Helper.

What were/are your favorite meals to make at college? I need to incorporate some delicious variety into my boring menu.

get a grill.

Open up a whole new world.

Burgers, chicken, steaks, pork, you name it.

Other than that, hit the recipe websites and follow the instructions. It isn't hard.

Baked fish - simple, fast, healthy

ridiculously easy (5 minute prep, 12 minute cook), no added fat , good for adding variety to your diet

tilapia filet (farm raised, relatively cheap)
lemon

cut the lemon into thick slices (3/8 of an inch)
arrange in baking pan to make a bed
salt and pepper the fish
place onto bed of lemon slices
add 1/4 inch of water to pan (so now your lemon slices are islands)
cover pan with aluminum foil

bake at 375 for about 12 minutes or until done (fish is opaque, flesh easily separates, not too tough)

do it with tilapia, and top it with your favorite salsa

you can also bake trout the same way, but throw a sprig of rosemary inside the fileted trout

If you want to incorporate meat without buying a grill, fajitas and stir frys are always good because the meat cooks a lot faster when it's cut into little pieces. We did those a lot.
