Usually wraps filled with salad, black or red beans, tomatoes, paprika and tofu.

Beer cheese Mac and cheese no measuring required (all ingredients are sold/packaged in the exact amounts needed for this recipe)

Ingredients :

• 12oz can/bottle of beer (lagers or ales work best, avoid dark beers)
• 8oz package of cream cheese
• 1lb bag of shredded cheddar
• 1lb box of elbows or whatever pasta you want

Steps:

1. Cook the pasta (I'm assuming most people already know how to cook pasta) and perform the rest of the steps at the same time while the pasta is cooking
2. Pour entire bottle/can of beer into a large pot and bring to a boil.
3. Turn heat down to medium-high and wait for the foam (if any) to settle a little bit
4. Put entire package of cream cheese into the beer, use a wooden spoon/spatula to break it into smaller chunks as it melts, until it is mostly melted
5. Add the shredded cheddar a little bit at a time until the entire bag is in the pot
6. Continue to stir and break up chunks until all the cheese and cream cheese is melted
7. Turn heat to low for the beer cheese, and finish cooking the pasta if not already
8. Mix in cooked pasta into beer cheese pot

This serves 4-5 people, but it leftovers pretty well so don't be afraid of having extra

As this is sort of a basic recipe, its easy to add optional extras too it as well. Some of my favorites are diced jalapeno, crumbled bacon, bits of steak, or broccoli

Chili. Not a ton of work but always delicious. Best bang for the ~~buck~~ work.

This thread is oops all pasta, so here is one that isn't. Take a head of cabbage and quarter. Remove core and slice into half inch to inch strips. Dice a whole onion. Simmer the onion in a large pot with some butter. When it is cooked add in cabbage, a can of diced tomatoes and salt. Slice about 2 lbs of polish sausage and add to pot. Cook for as long as you like. Should serve 5-6 people.

Cai fan - pronounced tsai fan 3 ingredients: rice, bok choy, and a bag of Chinese sausages.

You cut up the sausage, toss it in the rice cooker alongside the rice and just set that to cook rice.

Then you cook the cut up bok choy in a pan for a few minutes. Mix the bok choy in with the rice/sausage when the latter is done cooking.

Ez. I wish I knew about this in college...

Just crack an egg or two on a pan. Grate some cheese on it (not sure on the English name of the cheese I use, but not all of them will work as well). Depending on how I'm feeling that day I might cut up some sausage on top as well. Season with a fuck ton of salt and black pepper.

You can either eat it directly off the pan with slices of bread or throw it inside two large slices of bread and eat it like a sandwich. If you're going for the second approach make sure you cook the egg well, otherwise you're gonna be making a mess.

pasta with spinach sauce. I've always got some frozen spinach chunks in my freezer, so it's a matter of defrosting, adding sour cream and some garlic and letting it simmer for a while, and I'm ready to go.

This is one of my goto's if I want something quick

Low Sodium Ribeye Fajitas

edit: could also use chicken breast instead of ribeye. I just made it that way last night.

Seasoning: (adjust to taste, I don't do these exact amounts every time)
* 1 tsp cumin
* 1/2 tsp oregano
* 3/4 tsp garlic powder
* 1/4 tsp onion powder
* 1/4 tsp pepper
* optional: dash of red pepper flakes
mix together seasoning ingredients in small bowl

* 1 ribeye steak, sliced
* sliced red bell pepper
* sliced green bell pepper
* sliced onion
* optional: sliced jalapenos
* olive oil

( I'm usually lazy and buy fajita pepper and onion mix at Kroger that's already sliced )

Fry your slices of steak in some olive oil until they're about halfway cooked and then add the bell peppers and onion. When it's near done add in the seasoning mixture. Serve on tortillas with sour cream or however you like it. Quick prep and cook time!

Greek salad. Chop up cucumber, green pepper, olives, feta cheese and Greek spice. Maybe some bacon for fun. Lost tons of weight eating that for dinner and takes less than 5 min to make.

I like to make a stir fry with hokkien noodles Start with some frozen stir fry vegetables and some oil. Once the veg is mostly thawed, I'll add some kind of protein, usually eggs. The egg gets scrambled then fried in a large skillet on med-high heat until it starts to brown, then flip and repeat. Don't move the egg around while its cooking, it should be like an omelette. Roll up the egg and cut into thin strips and mix with the veg, add the noodles and cook for a minute. Stir in your sauce of choice, usually I use teriyaki or black bean sauce.

Done in <10 min

Although not a dish, I really enjoy making a good loaf of vegan banana bread. Using chia seeds as an egg replacement really does the trick.

I'm not sure how healthy banana bread actually is, but honestly it just tastes too damn good to not eat...

I made coffee jelly recently. It was really easy to do, the hardest part being the whipped cream (my arms 😭). And when I finally got to eat it I'd realised that I found my favourite dessert. Thank you Saiki K for introducing me to this heavenly flavour 🙏 (even though it took me over a year to finally get around to making it).

Easy: tuna salad sandwich. Not cooked tho

Cooked easy: Reina pepiada. Venezuelan arepa, really easy to make. You'll need arepa flour, stringy savoury cheese, rotisserie chicken, avocado and herbs. Hardest part is making the batter pancakes. Not venezuelan though, so don't think this is authentic.

I've gone vegetarian, but my old go to for a special meal that took basically no effort? Boiled pot roast.

You take a pot. Any kind as long as it fits the roast. You put the roast in. Add seasoning. Add water. Let it boil for a few hours. When you're ready to eat it it's probably long since finished. Yeah, you can put it in a crock pot or an oven pan or whatever but I didn't have those. Used this method to make corned beef brisket as a Christmas thing for awhile.

Now that I'm vegetarian? Hamburger helper. Fry some vegetarian hamburger. Add pasta. Add water and seasoning. Let simmer til done.

@Npenplz
I make toast and put an easy cream sauce (fry some flour in butter, add milk or half and half and salt/pepper) and deli ham and boiled eggs on it. My mother used to make this for my brother and I as young children.
