Easy fail-safe recipes
Just talking to a buddy who says he doesn't cook any more. Now, I'm not a great cook (and say so in my profile because I am So Honest) but even I have 3 or 4 fallback recipes which are easy and even better can usually be kept in their various parts in the pantry or fridge until needed.Anyone want to start the ball rolling here with suggestions to get us all drooling or at least experimenting?
Cat - there's no porcupine in my pantry, no likelihood of anything closer than a road-kill hedgehog either.

A slice of a banana
A slice of cheese
A drop of peanut butter
All on a cracker! And voila....
It sounds healthy. And quick. And easy. But it isn't a meal, now is it? I was hoping for suggestions I could use for guests when my social life picks up, too
Try putting 15 or more on a plate.
PS. Drink Wine or Sweet Tea!...
You can also lookup different receiptes on YouTube....
Luke - oh man, you are one crazy guy.
Anything on the fish or vegetarian line? I do a blue cheese sauce for pasta which is one cup crumbled blue cheese, one cup cream, one cup mayonnaise and it is wayyyy nicer than it sounds, but leaves you with breath like a dragon. Which is fine if you are eating with someone but pity the late guest who arrives in time for coffee ... also doesn't keep well. So if cooking for one, you'd have to halve the ingredients and eat the lot. Burrrrrrrp.
AND hope the perfect partner doesn't knock at the door 10 minutes later to introduce themselves.

For quick and tasty mango chicken, simply put chicken into a casserole with lid, put a jar of mango chutney over them and off it goes into the oven for 20 mins.

Just back from the all-night supermarket and one of the main reasons I went was to get milk. So guess what I forgot? NOT GOING BACK. But I have finally restocked fridge and pantry and will dine sumptuously all weekend.
No sheep's head, but I did get salmon so KN's will be the first tried-and-tested, yay!
Has Biff gone to
Still, I'm willing to be convinced. When you inviting me to dinner?
(Yup, I know. I will do ANYTHING to get out of cooking a meal myself!)
Eeek!
Just sayin'.
