How to Make Dining Hall 'Greek Pizza'
In 2014’s Ultimate Dining Hall Hacks (Storey Publishing), author Priya Krishna showed college students 75 ways to mix and match dining hall ingredients to concoct marvelous meals. Example: You want cheesecake, but only chocolate cake is available. Solution? Place a sugar cookie in a mug, top it with a few dollops of cream cheese, finish with strawberry jam, and you’ve got cheesecake in a cup. As the school year is almost over, we’re sharing five of Krishna’s hacks throughout this week. Finish strong, students!
