Thanksgiving is right around the corner, but some students are unable to go home to enjoy a nice meal with their families.
When it comes to cooking on campus, those living in dorms have limited options for preparing a meal due to a lack of cooking utensils and appliances. Despite this obstacle, students can still prepare a traditional Thanksgiving dinner, by only using store-bought ingredients and a dorm microwave.
Read the recipes below, and watch the video to see the final results for these four Thanksgiving favorites.

Cooking a turkey in a microwave turned out to be surprisingly simple. We put a two-pound turkey breast that came in a cooking bag into a covered microwavable casserole dish after we thawed it overnight in the refrigerator. We cooked it in 5 minute increments and checked it to make sure we did not overcook it. Halfway through, we added about half a cup of water, took it out of the bag and sprinkled more seasoning on top. After 35 minutes, the turkey was fully cooked and ready to be devoured.
