Learn how to make soup.
Once you do you can make many different varieties.
Or check one of the on line sources like America's test kitchen
They always have easy and fun recipes.
Try making a fancy version of grilled cheese.
- bread
- american cheese
- maybe another type of cheese?
- cut up jalepenos
- add taco bell or mexican food sauce
- tomatoes, or anything else!
Also, try plain pasta. Go to the store and buy all different types of sauces. Just boil the pasta, and add a sauce. They have baked ziti sauce, penne vodka, meat sauce, anything!
Here are a couple of things that are extremely good but with very simple, few ingredients and short prep times.
1. Roasted Rosemary Potatoes
cut up 5 big potatoes after you wash them (big chunks like the size of a tea light. cut up one onion in big chunks as well.pour on some olive oil, enough to coat the potatoes without having a lot of oil left in the bottom, some oil in the bottom is okay. sprinkle 1 tsp salt over the potatoes and 1 tsp of pepper. tear the leaves off 3 sprigs of rosemary and put that in there.
mix it all up and put it in the oven on 425, covered, for 45 mins. if you can poke them with a fork and it feels tender like a baked potato from wendy's, they're ready, if not, to another 10 mins.
2. Mexican Cheese Dip
Crumble up and brown one 'log' of breakfast sausage. Cook that on Medium High. Drain the grease off. Add one large block of Velveeta cheese that you cut into chunks. Let all of that melt while stirring... Cook that on Medium until the cheese is melted. Add one can of Rotel, be sure to drain it first! Mix it all up and let him dip tostitos in it. Men love this!
3. Perfect Sunday Roast.
Buy one big roast. put it in a large roasting pan. Add 2 cans of cream of mushroom soup, 2 celery stalks cut up, 2 carrots cut up, 3 potatoes cut up, one onion cut up, one pack of lipton onion soup mix and 2 cans of water. cover this and put it in the over on 350 for 5 hours. it will be SO tender it falls apart. Everything is in one pot. you can put it on at lunchtime and it will be finished by dinner. He'll love this if he's a roast fan.
4. Grilled or Baked Chicken
Take boneless, skinless chicken breasts (3-4 of them) and pour in 1/2 cup olive oil, 1 tsp garlic salt, 1/2 tsp pepper, 2 TBSP cumin and let that sit, all mixed up in a bowl in the fridge, while you're getting the roasted potatoes ready. Put the chicken in the oven in a pan for about 20-30 mins. that will depend on how thick the chicken is. it's not going to hurt anything to cut into the chicken at the thickest part after 20 mins to see if it is cooked or not. Instead of the oven, you can put them on the grill. I'd do about 10 mins on each side.
These are all easy, hard to screw up recipes.
pp %26amp; j
Pay attention there are a lot of steps so be patient.
1.) get to sliced of brea
2.) on one slice put peanut butter
3.) on the other put jelly
4.) slap the two together
5.) Booya! you got your sammie!!
Try making spaghetti and meat sauce. There are so many variations that you can't screw it up, you can make it to taste. I use a pound of ground beef, cut an onion and cook it with the beef, then mix in a jar of tomato based pasta sauce. You can add mushrooms, green peppers, celery, and spices, just whatever you have that you think would be good in it. Sometimes I make it with a pizza theme, adding cubed pepperoni. YUM!

mix it all up and put it in the oven on 425, covered, for 45 mins. if you can poke them with a fork and it feels tender like a baked potato from wendy's, they're ready, if not, to another 10 mins.
2. Mexican Cheese Dip
Crumble up and brown one 'log' of breakfast sausage. Cook that on Medium High. Drain the grease off. Add one large block of Velveeta cheese that you cut into chunks. Let all of that melt while stirring... Cook that on Medium until the cheese is melted. Add one can of Rotel, be sure to drain it first! Mix it all up and let him dip tostitos in it. Men love this!
3. Perfect Sunday Roast.
Buy one big roast. put it in a large roasting pan. Add 2 cans of cream of mushroom soup, 2 celery stalks cut up, 2 carrots cut up, 3 potatoes cut up, one onion cut up, one pack of lipton onion soup mix and 2 cans of water. cover this and put it in the over on 350 for 5 hours. it will be SO tender it falls apart. Everything is in one pot. you can put it on at lunchtime and it will be finished by dinner. He'll love this if he's a roast fan.
4. Grilled or Baked Chicken
Take boneless, skinless chicken breasts (3-4 of them) and pour in 1/2 cup olive oil, 1 tsp garlic salt, 1/2 tsp pepper, 2 TBSP cumin and let that sit, all mixed up in a bowl in the fridge, while you're getting the roasted potatoes ready. Put the chicken in the oven in a pan for about 20-30 mins. that will depend on how thick the chicken is. it's not going to hurt anything to cut into the chicken at the thickest part after 20 mins to see if it is cooked or not. Instead of the oven, you can put them on the grill. I'd do about 10 mins on each side.
These are all easy, hard to screw up recipes.
pp %26amp; j
Pay attention there are a lot of steps so be patient.
1.) get to sliced of brea
2.) on one slice put peanut butter
3.) on the other put jelly
4.) slap the two together
5.) Booya! you got your sammie!!
Try making spaghetti and meat sauce. There are so many variations that you can't screw it up, you can make it to taste. I use a pound of ground beef, cut an onion and cook it with the beef, then mix in a jar of tomato based pasta sauce. You can add mushrooms, green peppers, celery, and spices, just whatever you have that you think would be good in it. Sometimes I make it with a pizza theme, adding cubed pepperoni. YUM!

Cheap and cheerfyl (and simple) recipes for uni?
I'm off to uni in a few weeks and was just trying to get a collection of recipes to take with me. I was looking for simple things like, sliced potato, cheese and garlic, bunged in the oven for 30 mins, seeing how as that's a really nice meal type thing, that's sooo easy and isn't just beans on toast. Thanks for any helpCheap and cheerfyl (and simple) recipes for uni?
grilled cheese
p. butter and banana~ toasted(optional)
tuna w/salad dressing and celery and relish toasted
veggie sticks and p.butter and honeyCheap and cheerfyl (and simple) recipes for uni?
make yourself a nut trial mix for a snack, mix all your favorite nuts and smarties together with rasins and cranberries, its very healthy!
for food try making simple fish in the oven :) get the white fillet fish so you have no bones and get a ';shake and bake'; thing but for fish and put a little oil in your dish and your fish and leave it in for less then 30 mins and you got really yummy fish, and if you like go to your nearest safeway and buy a sauce for the fish, lemon butter dill is very yummy with this fish! good luck:)
the saviour of all students are stir-frys. easy to do, just get some meat, a load of different veg, some noodles and some soy sauce, fry it all up together and you have a very quick and pretty healthy meal.
Also what i did once a week was to make something big like a lasagna, cottage pie, moussaka. they are pretty easy to make, look in any cook book. have one portion there and then and put the rest in the fridge or freezer, then you have several ready meals only much cheaper and nicer than the bought ones.
Baked potatoes with various fillings;
tuna and sweetcorn
cheese and coleslaw
etc...
roasted vegetables (courgettes, peppers, fennel, leeks, carrots, garlic etc) add vegetables according to their cooking time then add crispy bacon and finish with grated cheese.
Pasta, cooked with added salad ingredients e.g. toms, cucumber, peppers, butter beans or kidney beans, tuna or cheese or egg or chicken etc.. makes a great meal and can be made in bulk to last a few days.
Try a pizza or bread base with tomato paste, cheese and toppings (like a pizza)
sausage casserole, made with a tin of baked beans and chopped tomatoes, onions, sausages, garlic, mixed herbs and served with bread or mashed pots.
I could go on .....
Good luck
Try to have a balanced diet; something of everything.
Not a direct answer but the BBC has a great selection of recipes for all sorts of occasions even for uni. Just type in some ingredients or let them inspire you.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/
Cottage pie (serves 4-6 portions)
拢1.50 worth minced beef (cheaper if you feel like it)
15p onion diced
20p carrotsliced
10p frozen peas (just a handful out of the bag in the freezer)
oxo cube
some gravy granules to thicken
mixed herbs if you feel like a proper chef
50p worth of potatoes
Peel potatoes and chop to regular sized chunks, place in pan of boiling water.
Soften onions over medium heat in frying pan with 2 teaspoons oil of your choice. Add beef, frying until brown. Add oxo cube, stir in well. Add carrots, cook for a few minutes. Add some boiling water (between half a pint to a pint depending on amount of ingredients thus far), peas and optional herbs, lower heat and let simmer for half an hour. Check thickness of mixture, if it needs thickening, add gravy granules to taste.
Mash potatoes with a little butter and milk.
Either eat as mince and mash because you're bored and hungry, or in a baking dish place a layer of the mince mixture, topped with the mashed potatoes. Grill for 10 minutes under a medium-high grill, or until top goes brown.
Might be old fashioned, but come February when the cold winds are blowing, it'll take the chill off.
This is TWO recipes in one, practically cooks itself and should cost less than 拢2. Less if you buy dried pulses. You will get portions for two hungry people or you can start on day one with the Bolognaise and then on day 2 adapt it so you have chilli on day two. It improves in flavour on day 2.
Bean Bolognaise AND Veg Chili
Cheats version:
1. Brown onions. add one tin of ratatouille and one tin of kidney beans ( or mixed pulses as per your choice )..maybe some tomato puree
then
for Bolognaise..
Add Italian herbs....cook for a bit ..serve with spaghetti
or
for Chilli
add chilli powder or chillies and cumin....cook for a bit..serve with rice.
The non cheat version of course is to use fresh chopped veg of choice instead of the tinned ratatouille - tomatoes, aubergine, capsicum, mushrooms zucchini..sweetcorn ( esp in the chilli ) ..whatever.
my son lived on supernoodle butty's for three years at umist
a pint of guiness and a bag of crisps.
This might sound nasty but it's really quite tasty, so easy and very cheap...
Make some pasta and drain. Stir in some baked beans and add lots of butter. Season with lots of black pepper and enjoy... straight from the saucepan to save on the washing up!!
You need to buy a book called 'How to Boil an egg' (Simple Cookery for one). It is by Jan Wilson who wrote it for her son going off to uni. Someone bought it for me when I went off to uni 18 years ago, and I still refer to the vegetable section for cooking times and prep instructions. It tells you all the basics, plus how to cook for special occasions e.g Sunday lunch, puddings.
but beans on toast is a student staple!!!
Anyway, heres some tips I used:
Tuna Pasta, but add in (insted of mayo) a tin of chopped tomatoes, (one per three people) a little salt and pepper- and herbs if your feeling flush, then diced onions (reds best, sping onions are better), chopped peppers, sliced corgettes, a squashed garlic clove per person eating the meal, and tomatoe puree, simmer for 20 mins and eat.
If you like a paticular sauce and cant afford it, try mixing a 250g amont of it with a tin of chopped tomatoes- obviously better if the sauce is tomato based or it'll taste odd- but different can also be good!
Eggy bread (great for nights after a few too many) take a slice or two of bread (and it can even be stale bread if you haven't any fresh) then butter and put on the side for a min, then fry an egg, some milk (200ml per person) and salt and pepper until it starts to bubble, then chuck in the bread and if you have any, a little cheese for taste. If you are feeling really posh, add in chopped peppers, onions and diced onions.
Omlete as above but with no bread. And dont stir it, turn it when it solidifies.
Cous cous is also great- you can mix anything with it, from prawns to beans (the ones without the sauce are best) to vegetables to even chopped up frankfurters. Then add in salt and pepper, place the (dry) mix into a bowl and make sure there is about an inch before the brim of the bowl and your cous cous, then boil the kettle, pur the boiled water over the cous cous and then cover the bowl with either cling film(if you got that kind of money) or a placte. Leave to settle for about 10 mins, then eat. Ketchup or mayo usually does justice to this meal!
Macoroni cheese is good also, and you can add in cut up veggies which can be boiled along with the pasta. Then add the cheese sauce (you will need a good delia smith recipy book for a decent recipy) you can add garlc or chilli for flavour, and for some extras to add in, try diced ham, (yes you can still do this if its the packet ham), parsly or sliced tomatoes and branston or HP sauce.
Also good are stews which is where you put everything into a pan or water (and you can use chopped tomatoes) and stock cube, and some steak pieces or bacon pieces -or both, and leave to simmer then eat with white rice.
Or grilled kebabs which is just vegies sliced into chunks (the veg being corgettes, peppers, aubegines which you will need to fry in a pan first, tomatoes and red onions- and garlic cloves) and then slice meat pieces or fish pieces then sprinkle with oil, and grill on 180 for about 30 mins, turning occasionally. You can serve these with pitta bread, brwon rice or sprinkle with grated cheese.
Also dont overlook, ratattoi (cant spell that!) spaggetti bolonaise, lasagne. stir fry (just buy the sauce, packet of sharwoods noodles and beanspouts and your away!) and the all favorite, cheese on toast. Add anything to it and herbs can also transform a meal, add tomatoes to cheese on toast and ham to beans on toast and even tuna to lasagne insted of mince, and you have new ideas.
My best advice? Delia Smith. The lady is a genius!
Chilli con carne
Fry one chopped onion and a portion of cheap minced beef, add 2 tablespoon of cumin, 1 teaspoon of chilli and 1 crushed clove of garlic. Fry some more, the add a tin of chopped tomatoes and salt to taste. Adjust to taste by adding more chilli or salt. Serve with a microwave jacket spud or white rice or oven chips!
My stir fry's are ready in 6 mins :D
A pack of Amoy noodles
Vegtables of your choice
Meat i normally use swedish meatballs

I'm Allergic to EVERYTHING!! What are some good simple recipes?
I recently had an allergy test done and I am allergic to everything... Food wise here are the things I have to avoid:
Soy
Cow's Milk
Wheat
Corn
Tree Nuts
Eggs
I am a college student and working full time, so anything simple/quick is good. For the past couple weeks I have basically been eating a lot of Rice and chicken or fish. So anything with more flavor and variety is great! Thanks for your help!I'm Allergic to EVERYTHING!! What are some good simple recipes?
Sounds like you will need to skip most carbs, but you didn't mention potatos, so there's that, as well as rice, rice pasta might be okay, and oatmeal. If you can get around the egg issue, then you can substitute wheat flour with potato, oat, or rice flour and probably some others for your baked goods, and you will probably want to invest in a bread maker so you can make your own. Meats sound okay unless your allergy goes as far as to include the grains that the animal was fed...ugh! In fact, most meat substitutes would be bad because they are made with soy. Other proteins would be things like sunflower seeds, and maybe pistachios, etc. I don't know if that is a tree nut. If peanuts are okay, I would buy my own and pulse them up into my own homemade peanut butter to avoid anything unnecessary. You may be able to eat goat and sheep's cheese, and there are some lovely tasting ones out there.
Lots of fresh fruits and veggies for you. Goat's milk and dairy products. Looks like your food bills just went up, but your restaurant bills went down.
What I would do is check in with the owner of a health food store and introduce yourself as a new customer, and ask for a tour around their shop. Explain your situation. They tend to be very familiar with their inventory, a significant amount of their customers are going to be allergy sufferers like you, and they will be a good resource for you. This is a good place to get specialty flours, dairy items, and whole grain items, as well as supplements if your diet starts to lack certain nutrients due to your limits in choices. But you can shop for produce at the regular store, and it sounds like you will be eating a lot of fresh fruits and veggies. That's not a bad thing.
For what it's worth, I would also consider having your allergy tests redone, even if it is expensive, unless you can tell that by skipping certain foods, you obviously feel better and you know that this is the reason. Why? Because this is a big lifestyle change, and I would hate to stick to this kind of diet based on a doctor's mistake. I would also weigh the pros and cons of sticking to and cheating on. Are your symptoms so severe that you can't just reduce your intake? This would open up some choices that are on your restricted list, if you don't go overboard. Of course, this is up to you based on your allergy symptoms.
If you have severe allergies, get an Epi pen and carry it along with Benadryl everywhere you go.I'm Allergic to EVERYTHING!! What are some good simple recipes?
The best quick items would be pre-made hummus (in the deli section) or instant (in the health-food section) and veggies. Any sort of beans and bean dip or ready made guacamole would work too. My advice is go to a health food store and ask the sales clerk for pre-made or easy mix foods that are free of the allergen ingredients. You'll be surprised how much good stuff is out there!
Soy
Cow's Milk

Corn

Sounds like you will need to skip most carbs, but you didn't mention potatos, so there's that, as well as rice, rice pasta might be okay, and oatmeal. If you can get around the egg issue, then you can substitute wheat flour with potato, oat, or rice flour and probably some others for your baked goods, and you will probably want to invest in a bread maker so you can make your own. Meats sound okay unless your allergy goes as far as to include the grains that the animal was fed...ugh! In fact, most meat substitutes would be bad because they are made with soy. Other proteins would be things like sunflower seeds, and maybe pistachios, etc. I don't know if that is a tree nut. If peanuts are okay, I would buy my own and pulse them up into my own homemade peanut butter to avoid anything unnecessary. You may be able to eat goat and sheep's cheese, and there are some lovely tasting ones out there.
Lots of fresh fruits and veggies for you. Goat's milk and dairy products. Looks like your food bills just went up, but your restaurant bills went down.
What I would do is check in with the owner of a health food store and introduce yourself as a new customer, and ask for a tour around their shop. Explain your situation. They tend to be very familiar with their inventory, a significant amount of their customers are going to be allergy sufferers like you, and they will be a good resource for you. This is a good place to get specialty flours, dairy items, and whole grain items, as well as supplements if your diet starts to lack certain nutrients due to your limits in choices. But you can shop for produce at the regular store, and it sounds like you will be eating a lot of fresh fruits and veggies. That's not a bad thing.
For what it's worth, I would also consider having your allergy tests redone, even if it is expensive, unless you can tell that by skipping certain foods, you obviously feel better and you know that this is the reason. Why? Because this is a big lifestyle change, and I would hate to stick to this kind of diet based on a doctor's mistake. I would also weigh the pros and cons of sticking to and cheating on. Are your symptoms so severe that you can't just reduce your intake? This would open up some choices that are on your restricted list, if you don't go overboard. Of course, this is up to you based on your allergy symptoms.
If you have severe allergies, get an Epi pen and carry it along with Benadryl everywhere you go.I'm Allergic to EVERYTHING!! What are some good simple recipes?
The best quick items would be pre-made hummus (in the deli section) or instant (in the health-food section) and veggies. Any sort of beans and bean dip or ready made guacamole would work too. My advice is go to a health food store and ask the sales clerk for pre-made or easy mix foods that are free of the allergen ingredients. You'll be surprised how much good stuff is out there!

You can either do a tuna melt - or do tuna and noodles- which is macaroni and cheese with tuna- Make sure you put the tuna in AFTER the mac and cheese is thoroughly mixed in- and then add a little garlic salt and lemon pepper and it's a simple, but pretty tasty meal and will fill you up.
I've always liked making tuna salad and putting crunched up potato chips in there lol call me weird but it tastes awesome!

Just add some mayo, chopped tomatoes, and onions. Add a splash of lime or lemon juice to taste as well as some salt and pepper. Then you can enjoy your tuna with crackers or bread.
I like tuna fish mixed in with mac %26amp; cheese and a little crushed red pepper flakes, and add some frozen peas at the end.

I'm sorry to tell you this, but tuna IS meat.
I dislike tuna as a general rule, but this is pretty good:
cook some spaghetti noodles (or pene)
let them cool down, add the tuna, mayo (to taste), some cut up hardboiled eggs (only one or two) and some green olives cut into slices.
serve cold.
my mom used to make this for us all the time when we were little.
Make tuna salad (add a little mayo or salad dressing %26amp; seasonings). Spread on bread and top with cheese. Broil until the cheese starts melting.
Italians classically use tuna in a tomato pasta sauce. Add the can to your favorite spagetti sauce.
Of course, tuna noodle cassarole in it's various forms must be mentioned.
Tuna cakes are great. You make them just like crab cakes. Sorry I dont have the time to find or type up the recipe but you can find one at foodtv.com
Mmm, I just made this recipe (no meat today) and it is fun and interesting. I added chopped apples to the tuna salad.
Oh, and for those that felt otherwise, tuna is fish, which isn't considered ';meat'; by most standards. Vegans and various types of vegetarians choose to avoid one or all of the 3 categories of meat, poultry or fish. For religious purposes, fish and seafood are ok on non-meat days. Just an FYI.

Hawaiian Skillet Chicken
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 1/2 pounds)
Salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup flour
2 tablespoons vegetable oil (canola, corn, peanut)
Hawaiian Sauce
1 (8 ounce) can pineapple chunks, with juice
1/2 cup brown sugar
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon flour
Remove tenderloin from chicken breast to allow it to cook evenly. Salt and pepper all of the chicken.
Place flour on a plate and coat the chicken (including the tenderloins) on both sides with flour, pressing to make sure it adheres. Shake off excess flour.
In a large, heavy skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the chicken pieces to the skillet, without crowding the pan, work in batches and add more oil if necessary. Saut茅 chicken for 4 minutes, without moving, it will become nicely brown.
Adjust the heat--up or down if needed. Turn the cutlets and continue to saut茅 for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until chicken is evenly browned and cooked throughout, (tenderloin pieces take less time, 2 minutes per side)
Transfer the chicken to a plate and remove the skillet from the heat.
Sauce:
Add the pineapple with the juice, brown sugar, soy sauce, ginger, cloves, paprika and salt. Return the skillet to medium heat and stir for a minute.
Add the tablespoon of flour and continue to heat the sauce, stirring to collect any remaining juices and brown bits from pan, and allowing it to thicken slightly (about 2 minutes).
Pour the sauce over the chicken and serve with white rice.

3/4 c. carrots, sliced thin
1/4 c. peas
1/2 c. green beans
2 c. ripe tomatoes, chopped
1 tbsp. olive oil
1/2 tbsp. vegetable oil
1/2 clove garlic, minced
1/2 tsp. parsley
1/2 tsp. basil
1/8 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
1/4 tsp. thyme

Add the beans, carrots, peas, and broccoli and stir until crispy tender for at least 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 minutes. Add the tomatoes, herbs (basil, oregano, parsley, pepper and thyme) and salt. Simmer for a minute or two until the tomatoes are tender, but remain somewhat firm.
Meanwhile, add about 1 quart of water to a large pot and bring to a rolling boil. Add the spaghetti; stir around so the pasta does not stick together. Cook for about 8 to 10 minutes until al dente. Drain well in a colander and put into a large pasta serving bowl.
Add the Primavera sauce to the spaghetti and add the grated Parmesan cheese. Toss and serve immediately.
NOTE::Use any vegetables available, fresh or frozen. Zucchini and cauliflower are good choices, and asparagus too.
Enjoy
Brown a lb to a lb and a half of Ground Round or Chuck with some onions diced up in there, drain well. Add two - two and a half cups DRY med size pasta shells, or elbows, tubes work great. Pour in one large bottle of Clamato Juice, bring to boil, turn to low and simmer covered until noodles soak up the juice but not until they are mushy. Sprinkle with a tiny bit of pepper and top with some grated parmesan cheese. Voila!
If you cannot find Clamato Juice (primarily used to make bloody mary's at a bar, use your favorite bloody mary mix. You can also add a can of diced tomatoes undrained/drained if you like. Takes less than 30 in prep and a great comfort food.
Aromatic Chicken Recipe
(serves 4)
Ingredients
4 organic chicken portions
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tsp salt
1 tbsp grated lemon rind
lemon wedges for garnish
1 1/2 tbsp dried rosemary
Method
Preheat oven to gas mark 4 / 180C / 350F. Rub salt over all chicken portions. Next brush chicken with olive oil, sprinkle rosemary and lemon rind over them all. Place chicken in a shallow oven proof dish and cook for approximately 40 mins or until juices run clear. Serve garnished with lemon wedges at the side. Wonderful!
Grab 4 or 5 fresh veggies from the market... tomatoes, asparagus, onion, bell peppers, mushrooms, potatoes, whatever looks fresh and tasty. Put some aluminum foil in the bottom of a baking pan (for easy clean up). Chop the veggies roughly and toss 'em in with some olive oil, salt, and pepper. Throw 'em into a (preheat before chopping) 350F oven for a half hour or so ( cover tightly with foil on top to keep in moisture and steam in) and then let them cool and put them in a whole wheat wrap or warm tortilla. You can do it in a frying pan too. Add any local items such as fish or chicken to keep your diet balanced. Try to find fresh legumes (peas, garbonzos, etc.) to keep your balance of fiber, carbs vitamins etc. Enjoy!!!

Place flour on a plate and coat the chicken (including the tenderloins) on both sides with flour, pressing to make sure it adheres. Shake off excess flour.
In a large, heavy skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the chicken pieces to the skillet, without crowding the pan, work in batches and add more oil if necessary. Saut茅 chicken for 4 minutes, without moving, it will become nicely brown.
Adjust the heat--up or down if needed. Turn the cutlets and continue to saut茅 for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until chicken is evenly browned and cooked throughout, (tenderloin pieces take less time, 2 minutes per side)
Transfer the chicken to a plate and remove the skillet from the heat.
Sauce:
Add the pineapple with the juice, brown sugar, soy sauce, ginger, cloves, paprika and salt. Return the skillet to medium heat and stir for a minute.
Add the tablespoon of flour and continue to heat the sauce, stirring to collect any remaining juices and brown bits from pan, and allowing it to thicken slightly (about 2 minutes).
Pour the sauce over the chicken and serve with white rice.

Indian Cashew Chicken
2/3 cup cashews, toasted
2/3 cup fat-free Greek-style yogurt
1/4 cup tomato paste
2 tablespoons white vinegar
1 1/4 teaspoons garam masala
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon grated peeled fresh ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground redSimple recipes that are still from scratch?
This is simple and you can add just about any veggie:
PASTA PRIMAVERA
1/2 lb. thin spaghetti
3/4 c. broccoli, chopped
3/4 c. carrots, sliced thin
1/4 c. peas
1/2 c. green beans
2 c. ripe tomatoes, chopped
1 tbsp. olive oil
1/2 tbsp. vegetable oil
1/2 clove garlic, minced
1/2 tsp. parsley
1/2 tsp. basil
1/8 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
1/4 tsp. thyme
1/2 tsp. oregano
Pinch of red pepper flakes
1/4 c. grated Parmesan cheese
Make the Primavera sauce - heat the oil in a large skillet and add the minced garlic and cook. Add the beans, carrots, peas, and broccoli and stir until crispy tender for at least 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 minutes. Add the tomatoes, herbs (basil, oregano, parsley, pepper and thyme) and salt. Simmer for a minute or two until the tomatoes are tender, but remain somewhat firm.
Meanwhile, add about 1 quart of water to a large pot and bring to a rolling boil. Add the spaghetti; stir around so the pasta does not stick together. Cook for about 8 to 10 minutes until al dente. Drain well in a colander and put into a large pasta serving bowl.
Add the Primavera sauce to the spaghetti and add the grated Parmesan cheese. Toss and serve immediately.
NOTE::Use any vegetables available, fresh or frozen. Zucchini and cauliflower are good choices, and asparagus too.
Enjoy
Brown a lb to a lb and a half of Ground Round or Chuck with some onions diced up in there, drain well. Add two - two and a half cups DRY med size pasta shells, or elbows, tubes work great. Pour in one large bottle of Clamato Juice, bring to boil, turn to low and simmer covered until noodles soak up the juice but not until they are mushy. Sprinkle with a tiny bit of pepper and top with some grated parmesan cheese. Voila!
If you cannot find Clamato Juice (primarily used to make bloody mary's at a bar, use your favorite bloody mary mix. You can also add a can of diced tomatoes undrained/drained if you like. Takes less than 30 in prep and a great comfort food.
Aromatic Chicken Recipe
(serves 4)
Ingredients
4 organic chicken portions
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tsp salt
1 tbsp grated lemon rind
lemon wedges for garnish
1 1/2 tbsp dried rosemary
Method
Preheat oven to gas mark 4 / 180C / 350F. Rub salt over all chicken portions. Next brush chicken with olive oil, sprinkle rosemary and lemon rind over them all. Place chicken in a shallow oven proof dish and cook for approximately 40 mins or until juices run clear. Serve garnished with lemon wedges at the side. Wonderful!
Grab 4 or 5 fresh veggies from the market... tomatoes, asparagus, onion, bell peppers, mushrooms, potatoes, whatever looks fresh and tasty. Put some aluminum foil in the bottom of a baking pan (for easy clean up). Chop the veggies roughly and toss 'em in with some olive oil, salt, and pepper. Throw 'em into a (preheat before chopping) 350F oven for a half hour or so ( cover tightly with foil on top to keep in moisture and steam in) and then let them cool and put them in a whole wheat wrap or warm tortilla. You can do it in a frying pan too. Add any local items such as fish or chicken to keep your diet balanced. Try to find fresh legumes (peas, garbonzos, etc.) to keep your balance of fiber, carbs vitamins etc. Enjoy!!!
I need simple recipes for a simple supplys!?
I live in the dorms. I have only one pot, and one hot plate. We do have kitchen on 3rd floor though. I need some simple recipes to make that are easy with one pot?!? I have made shrimp and some noodles that came in a package with some vegetables. Any other ideas would be SO helpful!!!I need simple recipes for a simple supplys!?
You would be amazed at the variety, use any recipe search and type in One Dish Dinners - the possibilities are boggling - you can even make 1 pan lasagna with out an oven. Try Recipe Zaar.com and AllRecipes.com. Most start by cooking the meat, set aside cook rice/pasta/potato and add meat back or cook meat 1/2 way add rice/pasta/potato add sauce, vegetables, cheese cover and cook. They are all really easy and a healthier option than Hamburger helper (cheaper too). Good Luck!I need simple recipes for a simple supplys!?
Chilli is really easy to make, you will need...
2 regular sized cans of chilli beans (15 3/4 oz. or something)
1 regular sized packet of williams chilli seasoning (the package says it seasons 2 lbs of meat but after you add everything else it's perfect!
1 6 oz can of tomato paste
1 large white onion
1 28 oz can of diced tomatoes
1 lb. of hamburger or 16oz. of veggie crumbles(bocca or morning star farms makes them and they make for excellent low fat chilli, I'm talking 1200 calories and 6 grams of fat for an entire pot that serves 10!)
Combine ';meat'; and onions in a pot and brown, or in the case of veggie crumbles defrost together over high heat. If you use veggie crumbles they may stick to the pan, don't worry this is normal. Once the wet ingredients are added it will all come off. If you use real meat you will need to drain off extra grease, then add all other ingredients. Continue to stir and cook on high until hot and it's pretty much ready to eat, although it's better the next day like all good chilli. This recipe only takes 30 minutes at the most, if you use veggie crumbles it only takes about 15. If you like it spicy add one regular sized can of rotel and 6 more ounces of meat(veggie or other) add salt to taste and you're done! If your pot is too small decrease everything by half, trust me this is really good! For thicker chilli drain beans, tomatoes and rotel. I personally only drain the beans. I hope this helps...good luck and enjoy!

Geronimo Stilton's Cookbook, by Geronimo Stilton
Betty Crocker's Kids Cook!
***EDIT***
I just saw that you are a special educator. I worked with people with Autism for 10 years. This book is expensive, but it's wonderful. :
http://store.appcomm.net/Merchant2/merch鈥?/a>Where do I look for simple recipes wtih step by step pictures?
the Mailbox magazine has step by step pictures of recipes in every issue. Their Yearbook is a good buy if you don't want to invest in the magazine.
I have used photos %26amp; line drawings to help my disabled clients make thier own. You can get them to help %26amp; the recipe book becomes their own. Within reason let them chose what they would like to cook.
First you will need photos of the ingredients %26amp; photos or line drawings of the utensils. The ingredient photos can be used to make shopping lists as well
Then you put together the recipe. Have a photo of the finished product with the name printed as the title.
Start with - ';You will need:';
List the ingredients by using a photo of each item per line. For the amount, eg 3 cups, use 3 small photos or line drawings of a cup - half the picture for 1/2 cup.
List the utensils in the same way, eg photos of bowl, spoons, egg beater etc.
Then you give the instructions step by step mostly using a single word, eg mix %26amp; then the photos of the first ingredients, eg milk %26amp; eggs. Next you would use Add %26amp; mix..... for the rest of the ingredients.
Finally use photos to show the final steps eg, rolling %26amp; cutting, putting in the oven or fridge, using a line drawing so show the heat setting on the stove %26amp; a line drawing of clocks to show how long.
Our clients loved helping make their recipe books which we mounted on card %26amp; laminated for them. As well they loved to get out the photos needed for their shopping lists.
Any activity takes on more meaning if they have 'ownership' of it.
The Mailbox Magazine usually has good ones. Your public library may have some.

Looking for simple recipes for a teenager to make-dinner?
i really want to make a collage of random recipes i find and can make to help out my mom who always stresses about dinner. my brothers kinda picky though, and it needs to be kinda easy and under 50 minutes, and not too expensive.Looking for simple recipes for a teenager to make-dinner?
Nachos -- brown some ground beef, mix in corn, black beans and a little bit of cumin to taste. Cover a cookie sheet with tortilla chips. Sprinkle monterrey jack cheese over all the chips. Then spoon the beef/corn/bean mixture onto chips(I do it kinda messily so it's sort of all over the place). Top with more cheese. Bake in the oven at, I dunno, maybe 350 degrees(it really doesn't matter, just don't turn the heat up too much) until the cheese is all melted. Serve with sour cream and salsa.
Pasta - Make sure to salt your water and get it to a rolling boil before putting in the pasta. Cook it until there's just a slight bite to it. Dump some sauce on it! Hunt's Chunky Garlic %26amp; Herb is a GREAT quick sauce for less than a buck. If you want to get fancy, sautee or steam your favorite vegetable while the pasta's cooking. Put your sauce into a pan, toss in the vegetables and warm up your sauce that way so the flavors have a little time to incorporate.
Cheap cheap stir fry - They sell bottles of really good stir-fry sauce. Make some ramen noodles, heat up some frozen veggies(I like broccoli, mushrooms and water chestnuts), toss it all together in a big pot and warm it for a while.Looking for simple recipes for a teenager to make-dinner?

My kids are early 20's, and these have been two of their favorite dishes for ages. Both are inexpensive and really, really simple.
CHICKEN AND RICE
Cooked white rice
Frozen peas
Cooked chicken, shredded or cut into cubes
Canned chicken gravy
I parboil my chicken -- just remove the skin, sprinkle with salt and pepper and boil for about ten minutes or until no longer pink. Let cool. Shred or cube. In a saucepan, toss in a couple of jars/cans of chicken gravy and turn heat to medium. Add some frozen peas, salt and pepper and the chicken. Cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through. Serve over the cooked, white rice with a nice little salad on the side.

Tomatoes, diced
Can of diced jalapenos
Shredded cheddar and/or monterey jack cheese
Sliced black olives
Boneless, skinless chicken

Colour 4 Lamb Shanks in some oil in a frying pan and transfer to an oven dish. (one at a time)
Drain pan and de- glaze using a little water and get all those pieces that remain and add some stock or stock cubes.
Pour stock over shanks and cover, place in a hot oven. (preheated to maximum)
When the oven regains temperature, cut back the heat to 165C. (320F)
Cook for about an hour, turning the shanks a couple of times.
Serve with mashed potatoes, steamed minted green peas and shredded cabbage.
Use bottled mint sauce or make your own, or pan gravy to finish off an easy cook meal.
There are some very useful answers for you in the question a few below yours titled 'I want to show my friends that I am capable of cooking, any recipe advice?'.
My answer there should come in under 50 minutes, tastes great, and can be adapted for the microwave, using more cheese, and sometimes one egg each if you are not very hungry. If you microwave it, just make sure the egg has set. It it hasn't, just put it back in for a bit longer.
Slice hillshire sausage/Polska Kielbasa fry in a lil oil and set aside
Make a box of Velveeta Mac %26amp; Cheese according to the directions then add the sausage and fold it into it. Serve with broccoli or your choice of veggie on the side or added to it. Takes about 20 minutes to make everything.
