In my experience, many students, whether new or retuning, either have a Keurig in their room or know someone that does. Although this isn\u2019t surprising on a college campus where most students need pick me ups to get by, did you know that a Keurig can be used for a lot more than plain old coffee?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here are some of the things you can make with a Keurig other than coffee:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tea\u00a0<\/span>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This one may be on more of the obvious side, but you can either purchase tea k-cups or simply use the Keurig for hot water to pour over your favorite tea bag. Grab some tea on your next grocery trip or even the next time you visit Commons.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Instant Noodles<\/span>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The next time you make a cup of noodles, try using your Keurig as the hot water source. As a matter of fact, the large cup setting will dispense water right up to the fill line inside the cup.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Oatmeal<\/span>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can have your breakfast just as quickly as your morning cup of coffee! All you have to do is empty a packet of oatmeal into a bowl, place it under the Keurig, select the smallest cup setting, and then hit brew.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rice<\/span>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Any of the \u201cjust add water\u201d convenience foods can be quickly made with your Keurig. Measure a \u00bd cup of instant rice, pour it into a mug, place it underneath, choose the smallest cup setting, and let the water cover the rice.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Seasonal Beverages<\/span>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why prepare drinks like hot chocolate and cider the traditional way when you can make a single serving much easier? All you need is a k-cup or drink packet and your trusty Keurig.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of course, these aren\u2019t all of the things that you can make with a Keurig, but these are some of the most dorm friendly ones I\u2019ve come across. Whether for convenience or to save some time, all of these ideas are worth a try! <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by Marisa Seager As of last week, we are officially back at school which also means we are right back in the dorms.
