Put some corn chips in a bowl, top with chili (I like Hormel), sprinkle with shredded cheddar. Nuke for 60 seconds. Viola! Frito Chili Pie.

What is that, Mal?

English Muffin pizzas.

Fork split the muffin.
1 spoon of sauce right in the middle.
Sprinkle on some shredded cheese.
Toast.

Should be about 3 1/2 minutes. I'll time myself next time.

Eat, but don't burn your mouth.

Any leftover quesadilla.

Sourdough bread, microwaved for one minute, squirt on some mustard, eat.

Raw fruit, too.

Green fried rice is rice, spinach, zucchini, carrot, fresh ginger, garlic, soy sauce, a tsp of peanut oil, and a touch of brown sugar, all lightly stir-fried.

Its quite good.

Not sure it quite makes it but my french toast recipe is close.
1 cup milk
3 large eggs
2 tablespoons honey, warmed in microwave for 20 seconds
dash cinnamon
dash nutmeg
dredge 8 medium of 6 large piece of day old french bread sliced to about 1.5" through the mixture and toast in a pan with butter for best flavor.

2 hot links + George Foreman grill + mustard + hoagie

Green beans from a can + pat of butter + salt/garlic powder = yum!

Mine:

3 eggs
2 tsp. milk (fattier the better)
seasonings--some salt, pepper, cayenne pepper, a bit of garlic powder, a bit of onion powder, a dash of chili powder

Whip ingredients together well. Pour into cold nonstick omelette pan sprayed with cooking spray (I like Mazola corn oil spray). Put burner on medium. Do not touch the eggs until completely set. Sprinkle with shredded cheese or other ingredients. Fold. Heat through until cheese is melted. Serve.

It usually takes me less than 5 minutes to make an omelette. I have mad omelette skills.

eggo sandwhich with peanut butter and nutella

-toast waffles
-put peanut butter on one
-put nutella on the other

make sandwhich.

add sliced bananna's if needed

I'd take you up on that omlette challenge snowy... I too am a mad omlette maker.

Though, my favourite snack in five minutes or less is the simple and ever classic peanut butter and jam sandwich. I could live on them (and to some extent have).

Ch'i... I don't see that taking less than five minutes when you factor in the prep time. It is going to take more than five just to chop it all up (unless you are a samurai). Regardless, it sounds tasty.

stirfry a box of frozen greenbeans in olive oil, add soy sauce(about 1/2 tblsp or so) and fresh garlic. Use a nonstick frypan, wipe with paper towel when finished.

Hello all,

Mine has to be this: pop a frozen pitta bread in the toaster until it puffs up. Cut the top and pop in some sliced cheddar. Toast again until the cheese has melted and add either tomatoes or sweet chilli sauce. Tasty and quick!

Unwrap a package of imitation crab legs and throw 'em in a bowl w/ a couple tablespoons of buttah. Nuke it for a minute or so. Pull it out and sprinkle it with a bit o' garlic salt, Old Bay, and a squeeze of lemon. Stir it up so everything is evenly distributed, and enjoy with your favorite beer or wine.

Also... :D

Slice a baguette into 3/8" slices, drizzle w/ good extra virgin olive oil, and sprinkle w/ salt, pepper, and parmesan cheese.

Toasted grilled cheese, with tomatoes.

Two pieces of wholewheat bread, 2-4 slices of American cheese, and enough tomato slices to cover the face of the sandwhich.

Toast until the bread cheese is melted, and the bread is toasted.

You'd be surprised what one can do with a well practiced recipe and a sharp knife. Especially when cooking.

1 cup StoveTop stuffing mix
1 package Ramen Noodles
2 cups water

Microwave for about 3.5 minutes.
Stir

One of my favorite--and totally unhealthy--recipes is to take a can of Campbell's Turkey Pot Pie soup and top it with cooked stove top stuffing. I usually heat one on the stove and one in the microwave, and then mix the two together when they're cooked. Mmm, comfort food.

Ooo! I have a good one-

Polenta (cornmeal)
Salt
Water
Tomato Sauce

Mix polenta and water in a pot for a few minutes until it becomes mushy, add lots of salt (maybe some garlic if you want). Stir in tomato sauce.

A ham and Swiss sandwich. It takes me five minutes to eat it. I have no idea, nor do I care, how long it takes my wife to make it and clean up afterward. I love that woman. :love:

mmm, great ideas! And I love the english muffin pizzas or just plain pizza bread. But it has to be done in the oven to be crispy.

Mine is something I haven't made in forever, but they are really good.

Bagel
Turkey or ham
Bacos
Cheese (American, Swiss, Cheddar, whatever is sliced and on hand)

Cut bagel in half. Place the meat on top and cover with Bacos then top with a slice of cheese. Pop in the microwave for about 45 seconds. Enjoy!

Lightly salted rice cake and natural peanut butter.
Top with: sliced strawberries, or sliced bananas and honey, or a little bit of peach preserves.

I do the multi-grain pita, unsliced, with turkey slices and topped with cheese in the microwave or the broiler whenever I'm starving and desperate. :D

I love this, but I use a bit more butter, and julienned green beans, and fry them till they are a bit crispy. Yum!

Tuna Casserole
Cook a bag of wide noodles. Drain. Add tuna, mushroom soup, can of sm. peas and margarine to pot. Melt butter, mix. Done.

quick home made hot dog

2 tinned/jar sausages fried in a little butter

1 bread roll toasted and wiped in sausage pan juices

place halved sausages in roll and top with mustard and ketchup. Add shredded cheese if liked.

Eat!

Yummy. :D

Egg white omelet: less cholesterol, and less 'heavy' than a standard omelet.

Ingredients:
4 egg whites
1-2 tbs water
Pepper, salt, herbs, spices etc.. (as desired)


Spray oil on pan and heat it for a minute. Mix egg whites, water and spices well, and pour them in the pan, let it set. Take it out when it's firm enough, that's it :).

You can add chopped tomatoes on top, or shredded/sliced cheese, or even some lightly fried onions.. But that makes the process longer.

For spices and herbs, I like ground pepper, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, thyme, oregano..

Oh, and a few drops of hot sauce at the end (with the omelet on the dish) don't hurt.

What a great resource! And some of these are even Vegetarian!

Here's mine:
Rinse a few florettes of broccoli and cauliflower. Rinse a handful of cherry tomatoes. Throw on a plate. Add a slice of mozarella. Cover with plastic wrap. Microwave on high for 1 minute. Cheese melts and cherry tomatoes pop to make a wonderful sauce over the cauliflower and broccoli. Adding a bed of pasta is delicious, but takes more time.

Smoothies!

Canned pineapple, banana, any other random fruits in the house, orange juice and crushed ice. Mix for a minute or two, and drink! Delicious!

Take a piece of prosciutto and lay it flat. Top with a slice of Jarlesberg cheese (you can get it pre-sliced in packages.) Snip a few chives and sprinkle on the cheese. Roll up the prosciutto and cheese around the chives. Make two of these rolls--or more, if you're hungrier.

Melt a bit of sweet butter in a skillet and fry your prosciutto-and-Jarlesberg rolls just until the prosciutto on the outside gets slightly brown and the cheese gets a little melty, about 2 minutes. Throw a few extra snipped chives in the pan if you like. Take out the rolls, pour the browned butter on top and eat.

Soooo freakin' good!

Hummus + toasted flatbread

Penne Carbonara.

Takes 2 pans, unless you buy microwave pasta.

Do these things in order - don't wait between then. If you start each one when you finish the previous, you'll end up with a meal at the end.


Buy the following.
Eggs, Cheese (ideally Parmesan, but any hard yellow cheese will do - strong flavoured would b nice), bacon (or ham), Double Cream (I believe you americans call it heavy cream?), quick cook pasta, onion.

1) Put a big pan of water on to boil with dry pasta in it already.
2) Put a skillet on to heat - heavy based non-stick, or add a little oil.
3) Grate the cheese and chop the bacon up small. Chuck it into the pan.
4) Dice the onion. Chuck it into the pan.
5) Mix a 1/4 cup of cream and one egg ylk per person (or use a whole egg and just a splash of cream).
6) Grate the cheese into the egg/cream mix
7) By now the pasta should be cooked.
8) Pour the bacon and onions into the chese/egg/cream mix.
9) Drain the pasta and put it back into the pan you cooked it in (the heat is important).
10) Pour the eggy mess over the pasta and put a lid on.

Leave it on the top of the cooker with the heat off.

Go and get plates and cutlery.

Set the table.

Stir the pan (the heat of the pasta should have cooked the egg mixture and melted the cheese).

Serve.

One of my favorites - Frito Pie:

Take 1 can of chili (beans or no beans, whichever you prefer), some cheddar cheese, and a medium sized bag of original Fritos. Nuke the whole mess, cover with some more cheddar cheese, and there is is.

The clean up? use a paper plate. Quick n clean......and filling!

Personally, I don't think that it's really chili when you put beans in it, but that's a discussion for another day - or another thread!!!

slice and dice 6 tomatoes in a processor or such device, do this with two green bell peppers, and 2 Jalapenos. if you can get 2 green banana peppers do this also.. (its optional)

walmart sells salsa packets for canning but i use them all year for my fresh salsa.. sprinkle in salt and garlic powder .. salt cuts the acid taste from the tomatoes.. garlic it tastes good

thing with the salas packet .. the longer it chills the better it tastes

serve with tostotioes scoops

Ghetto Tuna Salad --

1 Package (not can) of Tuna in Sunflower Oil
Mayonnaise, as much as your heart desires
Pickles, either a couple spears cut into pieces or a handful of the sandwhich slices
Basalmic Vinegar, add to taste

Mix together... eat as is or use for sandwhich filling. It's all good, and it has LOTS of protein.

frito boats.. mmmmmmmmm

regular frito chips. I use a can of chili with no beans(cheese optional). Nuke it all. Mmmm Mmmm.

ps yeah just like frito pie, just called something different.

Egg and rice. Basically but two eggs in about 1-2 cups of mexican rice and heat up. Yum.
