I'm in college now. I would say:
- First of all, have healthy options. If you are going to have sandwiches, have wheat buns an option. Try to include steamed vegetables, lean meats, etc. when possible.
As far as new recipes girls in NC might try and enjoy:
- Spinach Quiche (also is vegetarian!)
- Pita sandwiches are a fun twist on normal ones (for example, a pita chicke parmesan sadwich)
- Plenty of tasty soups when it is cold
- Buffet style fajitas (vegetarian girls can have satueed mushrooms instead of meat)
- Cajun Crawfish pies
- Toasted ravioli is a midwestern thing, but girls here like it
- You can always try a new type of pasta that has fresh veggies and such in it (something beyond spaghetti and fettuccine alfredo)
- Baked Ziti or stuffed Manicotti
- Chicke salad sandwich makes an easy but good lunch
- Really good salads are a nice treat. For lunch, you could skip the salad bar and actually make a club or southwestern style salad
- Mexican carne asade with rice and beans would be a fun change
- Tomato, basil, and cheese pasta casserole is really good if you've ever had that
- You could put other spins than tofu on pot pies: lobster, southwestern chicken, etc
- Chinese style stir-fry is great
hope this helps
