Well my go too is cereal but more often then not it won't work for me instead after Downing Several bowls I'm still hungry that's when a all out full tilt kitchen raiding feeding frenzy begins.... Oh and it never ends well becuase there is no real order to it or thought other then oh this doesnt have to be cooked I'm gonna eat it and this and that.,..... At the end when I feel sick and bloated (and wondering why??? Lol not really) I realize I could have juzt cooked up a bag of egg noodles, ground beef, frozen mixed vegetables and mixed it all together with olive oil and seasoning ate it and not felt sick in half the time it took me to wipe out the food supply in the house but that's just me1

Just returned home from a long weekend away. I'm exhausted from traveling but don't want to order take out! I don't mind going to the grocery store to pick up a few things, but its the physical act of cooking I'm not looking forward to. What do you like to whip up when you don't feel like being in the kitchen?
Stop by a store on the way home pick up a box salad mix and rotisserie chicken. Not only do you get fed quick but have leftovers for next day.
HOW HAVE I NEVER THOUGHT OF THIS BEFORE!!!!! This is being added to my shopping list forever!3 -
Simple salads! I always have bagged lettuce, cuke and cherry tomato as
Well as some kinda meat on hand. I make my own Greek yogurt dressings and sometimes add a string cheese! For the dressing, the flavoring options are endless. I’ll make a SF sweet mustard one with brown mustard, Splenda and yogurt, ranch flavored, etc...1 -
I remembered some recommendations for pre-cooked fish from a girlfriend. Both are great with a microwaved potato or some rice. Add some veg or fruit to make this a balanced meal.
Microwave some smoked fish such as mackerel or haddock fillets and serve with lemon and black pepper.
Fry tinned sardines in the oil that's in the tin.
