End of the Semester Leftovers

For those of you college students with kitchens in your dorms or apartments, using up leftover food can be a hassle, and it's always a bad idea to waste food you bought with your own money. Here's some tips:

Use www.allrecipes.com to locate recipes that contain whatever ingredients you have.

- I made Banana muffins with the flour, sugar, and mushy bananas I had leftover from previous projects. I got to share them with my literature class and use up leftovers.

Make Trail Mix!

- Got half a box of a cereal, some raisins, chocolate chips, Goldfish, granola, a bag of popcorn, or anything similar? Mix it up and share it with friends! Make sure you have equal amounts of sweet and salty.

- I mixed together Raisinets (chocolate-covered raisins), a bag of popped popcorn (let cool before mixing), and some toasted wheat chex cereal and poured into snack bags to eat during this stressful exam week.

I hope this helps you eat up all those leftovers so you have nothing to waste!
