First Things FirstThe person requesting ideas for cheap and healthy breakfasts for college students didn’t mention what kind of cooking appliances and/or equipment they have access to. In this article I am going to assume that readers have at least regular access to a refrigerator, a microwave, a toaster, and either a hotplate/hotpot or a regular stove.Secondly, I am not a fan of cold cereals, breakfast bars, premixed breakfeast shakes, and other “convenience foods”. If you like them, by all means, eat/drink them, but they aren’t what I consider to be healthy, whole foods. I also don’t think that they are very filling. My breakfast ideas all require some cooking/preparation, but I will suggest ways in which you can make these foods ahead of time Wusthof Knife Sharpener so that they will take only a few minutes (if that) to prepare in the morning.(Mobile Themes)Breakfast in a BowlMy favorite breakfasts tend to be based on whole grains such as oatmeal and brown rice. Incidentally, I thought I disliked oatmeal until I tried the steel-cut variety, so if your only experience of oatmeal is either instant or rolled “quick” oats, you owe it to yourself to try steel cut oats, which have a much more pleasing texture when cooked.Of course, dry, steel-cut oats take a bit more time to prepare, but that is okay, because you can prepare a large batch of oatmeal ahead of time, and pour it into a loaf pan. Cover the loaf pan and stick it into your refrigerator: Whenever you want some oatmeal, take a spatula and cut off a slice.
