Re: Favourite easy recipes for when you don't want to cook!

Cold boiled eggs.....for a quick fix, a little pepper and some mayo to ease it down.

Ok, simples it may be but what are skinheads on a raft?

Re: Favourite easy recipes for when you don't want to cook!

Hello Possums!

Here's my quick pizza:

The base is flat bread, or pocket bread, or souvlaki bread.

Spread with pizza sauce from a packet, I get the one-tablespoon packs.

There are no rules or limits to toppings.

Veggies like capsicum, tomato,  avocado, & red onions don't need cooking.  Kumara (sweet potato), potato, broccoli, aubergine (eggplant) et cetera only need steaming or grilling.

Seasoning.  Torn up fresh basil and oregano leaves.  Sweet or hot chilli sauce, or any sauce.

Salami, prosciutto, sardines, anchovies, tuna.

Grated mozzarella, parmesan, cherry bocconcini, and so on.

Nuke in the microwave until the cheese melts.

Re: Favourite easy recipes for when you don't want to cook!

Baked beans on toast (never heard the term skinheads on toast tiger, will no doubt think of that next time I open a tin and my kids will wonder why I'm giggling at a tin of beans) or eggs on toast.  I really don't like tinned food but for the kids' sake I keep those chunky soup tins in the cupboard so they have something if I'm feeling slack - they seem to love them.  

Re: Favourite easy recipes for when you don't want to cook!

Here's a ridiculously easy recipe, 5 min prep time, 20 min cook time and it is DELICIOUS. Tastes SO much better than the efort involved implies.

 

Ingredientsper person:

1 Chicken breast (I prefer skinless)

Sliced ham 

Sliced or shredded cheese (I like swiss or mozzarella)

Couple of nice tomatoes - Romas hold up well to cooking.

Olive oil spray

salt/pepper

 

Preheat oven to around 180C

Butterfly the chicken breast - there is actually a naturally occurring 'flap' shape and I often just use this rather than cut it further

Line the opened chicken breast with a slice of ham and cheese

Fold back up and secure with a couple of toothpicks

Put on an oven proof dish/tray

Halve the tomatoes and arrange open face up around chicken

 

Spray lightly with olive oil and add salt/pepper to taste (a wee sprinkle of dried oregano, or something like vegeta can be nice too)

Bung in the oven for 20 minutes

 

While that is cooking start your rice (even easier if you have a rice cooker), it should be ready at about the same time as the chicken.

 

Serve the chicken and tomatoes on top of the rice.

 

Bask in the compliments/yummyness.
