Fried eggs with sliced tomato

1 pound of breakfast sausage. I pull it apart with my fingers to make interestingly-differently-sized chunks. Fry, then eat. Good with syrup.

1. Cook some pasta. Doesn't matter what kind.
2. Add cream, if no cream is available add milk and condense longer.
3. Add powdered soup base
4. Enjoy salty, carbs goodness. (Doesn't taste as good if eaten often) If I am felling healthy i'll also eat a raw fruit or vegetable while the pasta is cooking.

Pasta with a glass of pesto

Khai Jiao

It sounds super fancy and foreign, but it's really just a simple omelette with some fish sauce thrown in. You can get fancy with cornstarch to make it a little crispy, but I ain't got time for that.

Instructions:

1. Beat some eggs with some fish sauce (not a lot, just a splash or a spoonful)
2. Fry eggs in oil, pulling from the side so the liquid on top cooks

It's done when there's no more liquid on top. Eat with rice (can microwave some precooked rice).

Total time: 5-10 min. Try it even if you don't like fish sauce.

Rice, sardines, kimchi, avocado, soy sauce, sesame oil.

Mine is probably oatmeal.

Put half a cup of instant oatmeal, some nuts, peanut butter and a banana in the blender and pour some milk.

I usually put in the refrigerator and eat it in the morning.

For sweetening You can also use dates or maple syrup instead of sugar.

Boil some frozen veg - add an egg if you’re feeling fancy. Throw some instant noodles in when the veg and egg is cooked. Strain. Season to your liking.

Slow cooker stuff if I'm lazy but thinking ahead a bit. Just throw shit in a pot and turn it on. I tend to get big lumps of meat rather than steaks or whatever, so the slow cooker has the added benefit of me not needing to do much cutting. I just do a few big chunks and it'll be so tender by the time it's ready it'll fall apart. Takes longer to put it away in containers than to prep it, then I'm done cooking for a week lol

Spaghetti bolognese is a regular if I need something soon. Little more work, but it's extremely quick and doesn't require being in the kitchen for the whole thing. Still makes a ton of meals that keep and reheat nicely.

Roasts are nice if I'm sort of having to impress someone but I'm lazy. You just throw shit in the oven and wait. Occasionally come back to throw in something that has a shorter cook time than the meat. Might be heresy but I've never really been keen on the leftovers of a roast though, so one cook is usually only one meal and maybe a sandwich the next day instead of several.

One of these 2:

• some leftover rice, reheated.
  or
• a couple small potatoes, microwaved and then cut into cubes.

Mixed with one of these 3:

• 1-2 packets cooked maggi masala ramen.
  or
• a can of chili and microwave for another couple minutes.
  or
• bagged madras lentils, similar to above.

Carbonara. It's ridiculously easy and very tasty.

Leftovers. Honestly, I cook like two times a week. Throw most of it in the fridge, some of it in the freezer, and grab a collection of whatever and microwave, air fry, or convention oven it. Even better is if the "cooking" is smoking or crock pot. You know, throw it in, check every few hours, kind of deals.

Otherwise, I'll just eat ingredients and pretend it's a charcuterie.

The other is sandwiches and eggs. Make bacon, use bread or eggs to clean up grease, throw some meat or cheese on it, season with bull shit (whatever premixed seasoning sounds good). I like mayo and balsamic on my sandwiches too. That's my easier than eating out and actually worth eating stuff.

Tuna salad sandwich

Tuna, celery, onion, mayo, dry dill, garlic powder, pickles if you want in a bowl and mix. Spread on toast and that's it. Has plenty of protein and will keep you full.

Next is ramen.

Boil water to cook ramen noodles

Stir fry some onion, scallion whites, other hard veggies and garlic, once tender add some soy sauce, broth and some bouillon powder, and soft or leafy veg and the scallion greens.

Let that cook and add noodles and a light drizzle of sesame oil

Rice, pisto from mercadona and fried egg.

Pretty much all of them. I've made it a project to feed myself with just nonperishables given like 30 minutes of cooking a night, and I'm about 75% of the way there, I'd say. Salad greens and eggs seem to be impossible to replace, but I can realistically have my own chicken coop and a little growing area indoors. Canadian food prices and qualities are fucked, yo, especially away from big centers.

Last night, I had stierum with a simple salad. It's a bit like a single, big savoury pancake, and you eat it cut into cubes. The dressing is cream (the one rule-breaking element, for now), a dash of vinegar, and salt and pepper to taste. I like to let it soak into the bread a bit

On nights I really DGAF, my go-tos are pasta with jarred sauce, or shakshuka. You can get shakshuka sauce in a jar now, so you just empty it into a frying pan, crack four eggs in, and cover until they're cooked. Serve with toast, which you can butter with vegetable oil or ghee.

You can make a vegetarian pulled pork with canned green jackfruit, an onion, bottled barbecue sauce, buns and jarred red cabbage and apple in place of the coleslaw. You pretty much pull apart the jackfruit, and add it with the sauce to sauteed onions. It's delicious, all three components are slightly sweet and they go together well.

I'll stop there, unless somebody is actually interested, but I've got a few more.

Ravioli or tortellini.

Grab them in the premade packages dried or "fresh."

Boil them, drain them, dump the sauce in.

I'll never get tired of pasta.

Instant oats + milk powder+ peanut butter+ hot water+ mix tf outta it + add some fruits as garnish if you have any to feel royal :P

A good nutritious meal
