Today, I am going over some college recipes meals I always eat at UC Berkeley at my apartments! These are on the healthier side… although I do love butter LOL. But they’re a mix of breakfast-y meals and then more lunch/dinner recipes. Everything I made here today is super easy and I tried to use the same ingredients to make it easier to go grocery shopping. This is a “What I eat in a day” college edition + more meal ideas if you know what I mean. I obviously don’t eat all of this in one day LOL. These recipes are sooo fail proof… you cant screw it up! Very special thanks to my awesome grandma and grandpa from korea that taste tested all my recipes!
Because I’m Korean-American … I really don’t “measure” things exactly when I cook hahah so… yes I’ll just list what I use. You can’t mess these up I promise! Recipes are at the bottom!
COLLEGE STUDENTS! PLEASE BUY AN AIRFRY IT CHANGED MY LIFE!!! HAHA!

~~~~~~~RECIPES~~~~~~
1. overnight oats:
milk/alt milk
oatmeal
sweetener: honey/agave/brown sugar
berries/fruits + toppings: I like nuts, chia seeds, goji berries, etc!
you just soak your oats in the milk and all the other fruits and toppings overnight in a fridge. I usually do a 1:2 ratio (so… for every 1 cup of oatmeal, I do 2 cups of milk). Let it sit overnight. I know others like to eat the oatmeal like this (cold), but I then reheat it via microwave to eat it warm!
2. matcha latte:
milk/alt milk
matcha powder: (my favorite one bc it’s cheap and big):
sweetener: honey/agave/brown sugar
frother/whisk: linked a cheaper hand whisk I use:
3. yogurt bowl
greek yogurt
berries/fruits + toppings: I like nuts, chia seeds, goji berries, etc!
