Tim Hurd ’13: ‘A man, a can, a plan.’

“Nothing is very consistent with my meal patterns,” Hurd said. He’ll eat whatever he has around the house if he needs a snack, but he eats out most of the time because he doesn’t have the time or skills to cook for himself. On the rare occasion he does cook for himself, he relies on a cookbook his mom and grandma bought him called

“A Man, a Can, a Plan,” which features a variety of recipes that can be made with a few simple ingredients, mostly canned goods.
