Probably not “good”, but a tin of chickpeas and a jar of store-bought curry sauce (doesn’t really matter which one) is super easy. Just put the chickpeas and sauce in a saucepan, and simmer for 20 minutes (also get some rice).
a really simple ground meat and noodle casserole, my go to when I don’t want to spend much effort cooking. Good for about 3-4 servings.
- 2 packages of kraft dinner (or macaroni noodles). Boil these in a pot until they are done. Strain the water, add these to a large bowl.
- 1 pound of ground meat (beef, chicken, or turkey all work). Season the meat as it cooks, I usually add salt, ground pepper, paprika, rosemary, a splash of vinegar or Worcestershire sauce. Cook this in a pan on low-medium heat with some oil until it’s done. Then add to the bowl.
- grated cheese (or you can make a cheese roux). Add to the bowl as well.
- whatever else you’d like!
- mix everything and serve
For vegetables, I have something quick like cherry tomatoes, baby carrots, or something frozen like peas or corn that’s easy to heat up in the microwave.
Recently I have been doing rice, canned black beans, and frozen veggies. Fry the veggies up in a large pan with a little olive oil. Rinse beans and add them to the pan. I’ve been using microwave rice recently because I don’t have access to a rice cooker. Add the microwaved rice to the pan, add some spices.
Boom easy meal. Can also throw all this in a tortilla for burritos.
