Tip No. 2

Cooking dinner together is a great way to bond with your roommates. Selecting recipes, shopping for ingredients and banging pots and pans in the kitchen together is a great way to catch up on each other's life while doing something fun.

Before you begin, it's important to discuss a budget for food and beverages. Remember to stick to it while shopping, so you can avoid any awkward discussions about money. After all, your roommate may have different money-spending habits than you. Keep in mind these ways to save money: use coupons, buy generic and choose simple recipes that require few ingredients.

Once you've set a budget, begin choosing recipes.
