Trim your budget and stock up on healthy food
AVALON COLE

Students no longer need to fear the expensive cost of healthy eating. The myth that eating right costs extra money causes some students to turn to processed, unhealthy items. Afton Kissinger, a junior from Overland Park, said it's disappointing students don't eat healthy because of the price.
"Some people think it's more expensive, but it really just depends on where you get it." Kissinger said. "Eating healthy is as expensive as you make it."
Smoothies are an inexpensive way to get nutrients. Kissinger's favorite recipe is a Green Tea Spinach Smoothie.
Another way to eat healthy
and keep costs low is to buy in a bulk, a tip Ann Chapman, a dietician at Watkins Health Center, recommends.
"Buy a large package of chicken breasts and freeze them. Buy larger containers of rice and pastas, which are usually cheaper than small packages," Chapman said. "Shop at Sams or Costco and split food items with roommates or friends."
Chapman also suggests snacking on things such as almonds raisins, and grapes. These items are all found in local grocery stores and are typically cheaper than a candy bar.
Sarah Klehm, a sophomore from Chicago, said she cuts up carrots or apples before heading to class so she can grab them when shes in a rush.
"Eating healthy needs to become a habit, not something you feel like you have to do," Klehm said. "By cutting up fruits and vegetables ahead of time, it's just as easy for me to take carrots to class instead of a bag of potato chips."
A quick, 20-minute recipe Klehm loves
making for dinner is chicken and stir-fry.
The recipe calls for: two chicken breasts, two carrots, $ \frac{1}{2} $ yellow pepper, $ \frac{1}{2} $ red pepper, $ \frac{1}{2} $ green pepper, about 1/3 cup bean sprouts, 1 tbsp. soy sauce and egg noodles.
Simply boil noodles until soft and slice vegetables and chicken. Place the onion into a separate hot pan, then add chicken and vegetables. Cook

for a few minutes, then add noodles. Top with soy sauce and enjoy.
Not only is this recipe cheap and easy to make, but the ingredients can also be used for other meals, like Chapman suggested. The chicken can reused the next day for a chicken

The injury to Davis put Kansas to the test. The Jayhawks haven't responded and now need to win some tough games to have a shot at making the Big Dance.
Ultimately, Zenger's decision will come down to what he expects from the second team in Allen Fieldhouse.
If he's satisfied with WNIT runs and just-under-.500 conference records, he knows he can get that with Henrickson.
If Zenger wants to make Kansas women's basketball a perennial NCAA Tournament team, one that can compete for a conference title every once in a while, he might be watching these last few games of the season with a careful eye.
Kansas has all the resources to compete on a national scale in women's basketball. We'll soon see if Zenger thinks Henrickson is capable of taking the program to another level.

Junior guard Angel Goodrich covers her face with her jersey after the Kansas 70-65 loss against Missouri on Saturday afternoon at Allen Fieldhouse. Goodrich scored 13 points and nine assists.
"We were just trying to stay as a team and stay positive with everything that has happened," sophomore forward Tania Jackson said.
Kansas gave up an 11-2 Missouri run and trailed 15 points at halftime. In the second half, the Jayhawks gained momentum and brought the game within three points with under one minute left. But Missouri's Christine Flores hit two free throws to capture the 'Tigers' first conference victory of the season.
Kansas worked in practice on defending perimeter shooters, but gave up open looks to the Missouri guards, who hit seven of 12 shots from three point range and six of eight in the first
Harper in for junior guard Monica Engelman. Engelman was benched for the second time this season for a lack of productivity, according to Henrickson. The Jayhawks were out of rhythm and quickly fell behind 8-0 after two Missouri three pointers.
Junior guard Angel Goodrich finished with 13 points and nine assists, but was disappointed with seven turnovers.
"You can lose, but you have to go out there and give it your all!" Goodrich said. "The second half, yes, but the first half we didn't do any of it. That dug us a hole."
Kansas has four games left in the season and they need three victories to end their 12-season NCAA Tournament drought.
Senior forward Aishah Sutherland led the Jayhawks with 23 points. After starting just two of seven from the field in the first half, Sutherland hit eight of 10 shots in the second half to rally the Jayhawks. Defensively, she took on Flores, the biggest challenge, who finished the game with 24 points.
"This is going to hurt us a lot," Goodrich said. "I feel like we can still finish strong and the only ones who can stop us are ourselves."
