make your own jello fruit cups in individual size small bowls or use yogurt cups you've saved & washed. Glad Press & Seal wrap is one of the best. Lay a piece of it on the cup & run your finger around the ring or brim of the cup & the wrap seals. Keep a container of cottage cheese to eat with the jello fruit cups. The cottage cheese is protein, for to help with better studying. No need for meat when you have cottage cheese.
Also, in your Hamburger Helper, drain a couple of cans of different canned veggies & add to the pan. We like green beans, whole kernel corn, sliced carrots. Even mushrooms work well. A great one pan meal & having your veggies, too. By adding the veggies, it also stretches your money, & you won't have to cook as often.

ALSO A GOOD IDEA IS TO PICK UP EXTRA PACKS OF KETCHUP, MUSTARD, MAYO, SALT AND PEPPER . COFFEE CREAMER- THIS KEEP A GOOD WHILE IN THE FRIDGE AND YOU HAVE INDIVIDUAL SERVINGS WHEN YOU NEED THEM. ALSO GRAB A FEW EXTRA NAPKINS, STRAWS, PLASTIC FORKS AND SPOONS--THESE COME IN HANDY ALSO.

canned and frozen fruit (frozen is by the ice cream); Juice concentrates (either pantry or frozen); With regards to pasta sauce, there are some REAL good low priced ones, like Francesco Rinaldi! Bagged salads are easy (check dates!); baby carrots and grapes are easy to pack for a snack; Use whole grain bread and pasta, and stay away from ANYTHING with high fructose corn syrup. If you are cramped for space, instant coffee can be nice! Especially at midterms and finals! Coffee is always healthier than soda!
