The College Student's Guide to Thanksgiving: Veggies

Let us continue on in our excursion through Thanksgiving, the college way. To me, it seems like the vegetables served on Thanksgiving are a cut above the rest.  They are greener, they have more flavor, they are the royalty of all veggies. Please do not think that the college version of these Thanksgiving dishes can act as a replacement. No way. These are simply for your enjoyment as you wait a whole year for the masterpiece meal to come back around.

Green beans. Usually baked into a delightful casserole that took days to prepare. If you aren't preparing for your exam until the night before, what makes you think you can tend to a casserole?  For my daily dose of veggies, I like to use frozen veggie steamers.  All you do is slip the bag in the microwave, and poof! You have a your veggies! For green beans, maybe spice them up a little bit.  Put some french fried onions in it...you can never go wrong with those!
