PB&J. It’s easy to make and you only need bread, jelly, and peanut butter!
Pollo picante con queso. Basically boneless chicken breasts (brown in a skillet), smother in salsa/picante sauce, bake at 350F for about 20 minutes, then cover in shredded cheese and bake until melted. Serve with refried beans and chips.
Easy Go To- Totino’s party pizza with a spinach, tomato and feta salad.
Effort Go To-Chicken and Dumplings
I got this thing that lets me make pasta in a microwave for Christmas-I'm probably going to die if I don't stop using it every time I don't want to cook, but that would be a HELL of a way to go.
Either pasta or mexican
Pizza, I’m addicted to pizza. I think I might marry a pizza….mmm pizza.
Steak no doubt
To make: chicken parm. Nothing better than fully from scratch chicken parm, my twist is to add a thin layer of red wine reduced mushrooms between the chicken and the sauce. It helps keep the chicken crispier while also adding a little earthy, red wine taste.
It also provides a little difference in each bite. I give each layer a different flavour profile so that it doesn't over blend (ie. Garlic only in the chicken, basil only in the sauce etc) and i blend aged cheddar into the cheese to give it a bit more of a kick.
Fastfood: gotta be popeyes chicken, it's like crack.
My go to meal for breakfast is granola and yogurt with fruit and nuts. For an easy dinner I'll make a salad made with everything I have that sounds good! lol Then for when I cook for guests its lasagna or mexican food. When I have a lazy day it's take-out pizza! :) I like to cook so I usually cook instead of doing take out.
Before I knew what a charcuterie board was, I made something I called odds and ends: sliced cheeses and summer sausage, little pickles and olives and peppercini and other bits and pieces in the fridge that need to be used up.
A quick stir-fry, made with whatever meat and vegetables are on hand, with a sauce made from some Bragg's, coconut aminos, sesame oil, and sriracha. Over rice, noodles, quinoa, or just in a big old bowl.
Spaghetti carbonara... hearty, tasty, cheap and easy to make.
I found a copycat recipe for Olive Garden's alfredo that's really easy to make. We have it once a week over tortellini
That's going to be soup. And cheese. Lots of cheese. A ridiculous amount of cheese.
Tacos. Or a bagel with butter. Depending on how scary food is that day
If I have the money? Pizza
If I'm on the last leg before paycheck rolls in? Tuna and crackers lol
Spaghetti 🍝
Scrambled eggs with garlic and cheese, fresh sliced tomatoes and buttered toast. First summer I didn't live at home I was quite poor and this was often dinner. Many years later and I love it!
Funeral potatoes. You have not lived until funeral potatoes.
It's literally just butter, potatoes and cheese (with crushed up cornflakes on top for texture
btw the reason I think they're called funeral potatoes is because the recipe calls for 2 sticks of butter
anything from a crockpot is good
Impossible sausage sandwich and decaf soy latte at Starbucks. Never gets old for me.
Pork chops, pizza, spaghetti with meatballs and garlic bread, and a true classic in my opinion is burgers, burgers with cheese and ketchup on it, nothing more nothing less, just a plain cheeseburger.
Chili and cornbread/baguette. (P.s. I think my spell check is a cannibal, it tried to correct 'chili' to 'child'.)
Popcorn! always popcorn. it's easy to make if you have a microwave!
sorry if i spelled something wrong. you can correct me in the comments. :)
Microwaveable Pizza
Pizza or a Burger and Fries. (Both so simple and so delicious.)
Bagel cut in half, toasted in an oven for 4.5 to 5 min, a bit of butter, salt and dried cilantro or basil on top. It goes amazingly well with some apples and eggs (as a breakfast). Eat it immediately or it's gonna harden
Forgot to mention, garlic bread and garlic fries are possibly the best things in the world, and dried mangoes are the best snack.
Fried Rice or Mashed Potatoes. I tend to lean more towards the spuds because it is easier to make. Did some variations such as Champ and Colcannon before (Champ worked out better XP) and am currently experimenting even further XP
eg
Chicken sausage cut up into rice. Usually something from Trader Joe's, and with canned mushrooms added. Fits my eating plan, is quick and yummy.
Toad in the hole
2oz flour,
2 eggs
1/4 pint of milk
2 sausages from the local butcher
Pop in the oven at 220°Cand comfort food in 40 minutes, perfect when you've had a rubbish day at work and don't want to think
Pizza from the pizza pit.
Almost anything pasta related, but regular ol' spaghetti and meatballs is number one for me.....or pizza, uhmm wait
