No matter what year you are in college, eating healthy can pose a challenge. Luckily, there are variety of options on campus (and GWorld) that allow you to eat well without completely breaking the bank!

Pita Pit

Pita Pit is very quick and convenient, but it can hardly be classified as fast food. After all, each sandwich is packed with fresh ingredients that are shipped in every day. The pitas are prepared in front of the customer and nothing at the venue is fried. They also offer fat-free dressings and just added whole-wheat pitas to the menu. Best of all, Pita Pit is open until 2 a.m. every night of the week and delivers.

Juice Zone

Juice Zone is the ideal destination for a quick, healthy post-workout snack or pre-class energizer. With a wide selection of smoothies, wraps, salads and nutrition bars, you can satisfy a small craving or enjoy a full meal. Try a wheatgrass shot and get a picture of your reaction posted on their bulletin board!

Safeway

Eating out can be convenient when on the run, but purchasing every meal adds up. Save money by stocking up on groceries and packing snacks and meals when you are too busy to cook. Safeway offers a wide selection of healthy options, including their “Eating Right” brand of foods.

The menu is nearly 100 percent organic and includes wraps, salads, sandwiches, rice and noodle bowls and soups. Java Green also offers delicious desserts brought in from Sticky Fingers, an award-winning vegan bakery. There is also a vegan brunch Saturdays from 11:00 a.m. to 3 p.m.
