After you read Collegiette Eats, your taste buds, wallet and waistline will thank you.
Fellow foodies,
It has been a pleasure contributing to Collegiette Eats over the past few months. From my oatmeal obsession to the life-changing discovery of spaghetti squash, it has been so fun posting my favorite eats, recipes and tips. Living in an off-campus house with kitchen access for the first time this year has been quite the culinary journey, and I'm glad that I both 1) made it through relatively unscathed (with only a minor burn from a George Foreman grill) and 2) was able to share the highlights along the way.
Though I will (hopefully) be continuing to experiment in the kitchen and eat well, I'll sadly be saying goodbye to Collegiette Eats. I'm writing from the restaurant in the Westin Hotel of the Detroit airport on my way to Costa Rica for the next few weeks for a school program. I figured that several weeks worth of rice and beans would not make for very noteworthy material, so I figured I would spare you all that and make this my last contribution. But it wouldn't be a sufficient last post without sharing a meal. The last supper is spicy grilled chicken with andouille sausage and chickpeas, pictured below.
It may not be spaghetti squash, but it's still a delicious way to say goodbye. Thank you for reading my posts, and stay tuned for the future of Collegiette Eats! And remember, there is always something more satisfying than frozen pizza that you can make in just about the same amount of time, so don't be afraid of your kitchen. If you can read, you can cook!
Peace, blessings and oatmeal with almond butter.
