Tasty emergency meal or for non-cooking types.

One bag Voila Teri-yaki Chicken or Beef. $.75 off Coupons routinely available, also often on sale down to $2.99.
Two bags Lipton Beef or Chicken Lo Mein noodles. With double coupons, can often get for $0.55 pack.
2 small cans mushrooms, 3/$1 on sale if lucky, otherwise (and better) 8 oz fresh mushrooms.
One large - two medium onion, or two bunches green onion.
Two large carrots, and 2 cups/volume frozen brocoli.
Add bamboo shoots/baby corn/water chestnuts as desired.

Slice up onion. Sautee in oil with a little garlic. Add mushrooms. If using green onions, add both together (mushrooms and onions). When 2/3 done, add the Voila pack. Cook as directed, roughly ten minutes.

Seperately, measure just under three cups water into pot, boil. Add sliced up carrots, simmer for 5 minutes, add frozen brocoli, bring to boil. Add Lipton side - lo mein packs. Simmer for the directed six minutes.

Combine both dishes. Instant good Oriental-style dish, easy to make. This is one dish I developed for my wife, she was literally one of those people who could not do a cake mix when I met her.

From scratch dishes are MUCH better, but this works and is cheap w/coupons. Plus very little prep work.

Erm, probably should have put it somewhere safe, like a pawnshop.

Good though that you're recovering.

Now, back to sandwiches...

One thing I suggest NEVER making is this and eating it before bed:

white bread
miracle whip or mayo
ham
mustard and salt
roast meat
mustard and salt
ham
mustard and salt
roast meat
mustard and salt
ham
miracle whip or mayo
white bread

Without fail, if I make this at night, I DO NOT fall asleep. It tastes good, especially with pickles or relish, but for whatever reason it keeps me up. No upset stomach, no posterior discomfort, no kneeling before the porcelin god, just failure to sleep.

I haven't defragged my machine since I put a legit copy of WinXP on it. Maybe I'll let the PC do that while I sleep.

Wow, some of the recipes in this thread really remind of traditional American cuisine ...

- 3 scoops of lard
- some vegetables from a can
- a sack of Doritos
- 3 squirts of Cheez Whiz
- a can of Cream of Mushroom glop

Mix in a dish and bake it a while.



Really, for only slightly more effort than combining various forms of factory food you can use actual vegetables and other ingredients to make dishes with real flavor and nutrition. It need not require great effort. If you have time to bake a casserole dish of glop for an hour, you could also make simple, great-tasting healthy dishes.

I learned a lot from this site, not only endless recipes but great cooking encyclopedia of materials, techniques, etc.

Other advice: like any other craft, having the right tools makes cooking vastly easier. A well-maintained bong is my personal favorite. Makes chopping garlic a little more fun.
