Sometimes when you want to make a sandwich, you want to make a sandwich. Tonight, I did just that. Only when I bit into it, the first word that came into my mind was "orgasmic". And thus the Danny Zeff Orgasmic Sandwich was born. I assume you all know how to make a basic sandwich. If not, WikiHow is always a step ahead. I decided to put in a little bit of everything I could find, within reason of course (no raw pasta this time). Here is the entire list of items that made it in between those two yummy pieces of white bread: roast beef slices cheddar cheese lettuce onion shredded Mexican 4-cheese avocado mayonnaise spicy brown mustard Tapatio Sriracha sauce salt pepper Sliced diagonally in half, served with salt and vinegar chips and a Vanilla Coke. Not much to say about this one other than... yum.

I forgot to mention last week that my parents bought me not one but two cookbooks. And the other one, entitled The Everything College Cookbook, had a simple lunch recipe for Frozen Fish Fajitas which sounded extremely delicious... at least for a starving college student. We bought a huge box of Albertsons-brand frozen fish sticks several weeks back, and as I was apparently the only one that was eating them (yes I do like to put fish sticks in my mouth), I needed a creative way to finish them off. I thought this recipe would be a perfect opportunity to fix that situation. The only thing I didn't have that the book calls for was tartar sauce. However I created a delicious, nutritious, and anvilicious way to get around that. Check it. Ingredients: 6 frozen fish sticks 2.5 tablespoons of ranch dressing 1 teaspoon of lime juice 1 teaspoon of lemon juice Tabasco sauce...

So that I wouldn't be completely hopeless when I started living on my own, my parents decided to buy me The Starving Students' Cookbook. As most recipes in cookbooks require that I actually have the ingredients in stock, I haven't been using it very much. However, my roommates and I recently did a huge Costco run, filling our two kitchens full of stuff that should last us a few months. And so, I decided to look through the book to make a good lunch. And I'm glad I did, because it recommended a recipe of which I actually had the necessary ingredients for it: English Muffin Pizzas. My recipe is slightly adapted from Dede Hall's original. Ingredients: 2 English muffins, cut in half tomato sauce (such as Ragú, for example) sliced onions and capsicum (of course, you can use whatever toppings you'd like) shredded cheese Italian seasoning Directions: Preheat toaster oven to...

I've reached a new stage of independence in my life. Halfway through my college career, I have kissed the dorms goodbye and now live in a frat house home with three of my fraternity brothers. What's nice about it is that I have way more living space, we have premium cable so that I can watch Rocko's Modern Life on TeenNick late at night, and there's no RAs to tell us we can't smoke hookah on the premises. However, the one setback to leaving the dorms is that I am no longer on a meal plan. Most of you probably think of this as a good thing, as most dorm food sucks and it's really expensive. However, in my personal opinion (and I'm not being paid to write this) the food at Chapman University's Randall Dining Center is usually quite delicious. More importantly, I am not a cook and I...
