Living on your own for the first time is difficult. Still, we learn to appreciate everything our parents did for us, especially for the food. Last semester was my first away from home and I was determined to not spend it eating ramen noodles and microwave burritos, and I succeeded! Only problem was that I went over on my food budget a few hundred dollars. This blog is for college students who want to eat homemade food without breaking the bank.

Recipe #1 - Popovers!

I was going to wait until I got to school to post my first recipe, but I was really craving these this morning. My mom first learned how to make them in college, and are now one of my favorite breakfast foods. Popovers only have 4 ingredients; flour, milk, salt, and eggs. The cost per popover is so low that I don't want to take the time to calculate it.


Equipment:
Muffin pan
1 cup measuring cup
A teaspoon
Mixing bowl

Ingredients
1 C flour
1 C milk
1 tsp salt
2 eggs


Directions:
Mix everything together, divide evenly into the 12 muffin cups. Bake at 425 for 20 minutes or until golden brown. Eat!




They pop up really high in the oven, but deflate after sitting around. Eat them while they're hot! Some people like to put jam on them, but I think plain butter is the best.
Enjoy!

    Ahhhh... my favorite college recipe! I remember many days eating popovers as a college freshman... and many days making them for you kids when you were little. They are super cheap, very easy to make, fun to watch 'pop' & actually delicious!
