Simple vegetable ‘mix’ for any student

Cooking Corner
by Marissa Zelazo

I have heard more than enough complaints from college students and  adults about how hard it is to eat good food while keeping up with their busy lives.

I will always sympathize and crave fast food on occasion, but believe some people just haven’t tried cooking a healthy homemade meal.

To spread the word, there’ll be a Cooking Corner in each issue of The  Beacon. Recipies can be submitted to me via FirstClass and I will test them out to make sure they are tasty and almost as easy as your favorite ramen noodle dinner…

Ingredients:
1 green pepper
1 tomato
1 red onion

Directions:
Chop up 1 green pepper, 1 tomato, and 1/2 a red onion.
This simple veggie mix can be kept in the refrigerator for days if kept cold and covered, and can add nutrition and flavor to many easy  Recipies.
