The Goodness

Getting tired of those boring dining hall dinners? Feel like your dinner is just missing that special side? Although I can’t propose an entirely new dish, I can help you create something that will turn any bland dinner into something slightly more appetizing! In my house we call it “the goodness.” Why? Well, that’s the best way to describe it: it’s so good, it has to take its name from the source!

First, find some sort of dinner roll (if there isn’t any, use sliced bread or a bagel!). Then, venture to the pizza section and procure the spices. In a small bowl, add parmesan cheese (enough to cover the bottom and a small amount of the side), a sprinkle of red pepper flakes (unless you want it really spicy), a dash of black pepper, and a generous shake of oregano. Next, find oil. It’s usually located in the salad section. Pour the oil into the bowl so that your mixture contains a liquid texture, but the spices aren’t drowning. Dip the bread in the bowl, or if you’d prefer to be more proper, spread the mixture onto the bread with a spoon. And voila! You have the perfect “fancy” item that your dining hall dinner needed!
