I don't cook a lot. Most nights I'm chilling with a Stouffer's French Bread Pizza and some kind of microwavable frozen vegetable, but I'm looking to branch out. The problem is every recipe I look at needs like 20 ingredients that I know I'm never going to use in anything else, and like 10 steps that require me to do 5 things at once. I'm looking for some ideas for easy, preferably cheap recipes, that only need a few things, like 5 max. I'm counting on you guys! Thanks!

take bread, dump a little oil on it then wipe the floor with the oiled-up bread. Afterwards, you can slip on the floor and hopefully break your neck you piece of poo poo

Red lentils. Some sausage, like 250-300g, whatever. Make it a spicy sort. Half an onion. Water. Salt, paprika powder, cumin, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, oregano, and chicken bouillon. Frozen chopped spinach. Put some butter in a pot at medium heat. Experiment how you want the sausage - you can cut it into slices, though I prefer to hold it over the pot and squeeze it into an unrecognizable mess. Put the sausage in and keep it there for a couple of minutes until it looks vaguely edible. Look up a video on how to chop an onion into something that doesn't look like poo poo, proceed to mess up and chop the onion into something that does look like poo poo, and put it in the pot with the sausage. Keep it there for a couple of minutes until it's see-through. Stir a couple of times during this whole process so you cook it somewhat evenly (you can also add carrots or something here, whatever) Put in 350~ grams of red lentils, then immediately add about a liter of water, maybe less depending on how soup-y you want this thing to be. Crank up the heat to max, and while it starts to boil, add in all the spices and mix it all around. Once it starts to boil, bring the heat down to low, put a lid on the pot, and go watch an anime. Every now and then you should check in on it, stir about a little. After 45~ish minutes, add the frozen spinach, then 15 minutes more and there you go. Once you've gotten the hang of things and want to experiment, try adding some more spices, like curry or something. I've put peanut butter in this thing. Cheese, too. Or you can add other frozen vegetables along with the spinach if you're some kinda vegan. Terper fucked around with this message at 21:59 on Jun 2, 2017 |

Buy a pork loin and a package of liptons onion soup dust. Put the pork loin in a crock pot and fill it with water till the porkloin is half submerged. Take the lipton onion soup dust and pour it on the loin. Salt and pepper it to your liking. Seal the crockpot and put it on high. Leave it alone for eight hours. Voila! You now have a pork loin to eat.

Chicken Peanut Curry 1 1/2 lbs chicken breast 4 cups chicken broth 1 1/2 cups light coconut milk 1 cup chunky/crunchy peanut butter 1 small sweet onion, minced 1 tbsp minced garlic 2 tbsp all purpose flour 1 tbs curry powder 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (optional) Olive oil Rice Bring the chicken broth to a boil. Sautee the onion and garlic until browned with olive oil. Then stir in flour, curry powder, and pepper. Keep stirring until it's a firm paste. Whisk paste into boiling broth and mix until combined. Lower temp to medium-low. Cut the chicken breast into small pieces, then sautee the chicken in olive oil. Use salt and pepper as desired. Once cooked, set aside. Once the broth is cooled enough, whisk one more time and slowly add in the coconut milk and peanut butter. Whisk until blended and put heat back on medium-high. Add in cooked chicken. Let it simmer until it thickens enough to desired texture. Serve over jasmine rice (preferred) with some crushed peanuts or cashews on top. (originally a GBSFood recipe that I altered)

1. Watch every episode of the show "good eats." 2. See your kitchen like Neo sees the matrix. 3. Do not try and cook the food. That's impossible. Instead... only try to realize the truth. There is no food. Then you'll see, that it is not the food that cooks. It is only yourself.

Choose a couple veggies, a protein, some stock, and a box o' pasta (some kind of macaroni e.g. rotini, penne). cut down protein into non-ridiculous sized chunks, sear em'. Throw in veggies and cook for a minute or two. add a couple of cups of stock to the pan and use a wooden spoon to scrape all the brown stuff out of the bottom of the pan. Add some herbs if you're feeling super fancy. Add half the pasta, turn the burner to high and stir with a spatula for the cooking time listed on the box. (The stock will reduce to a sauce) Grate some cheese to garnish. Repeat all the time with any freaking veg and protein.

Get bread, get cheese. Put bread under grill in oven till toasted, flip bread, put cheese on bread, put back under grill till cheese melted and bubbling; bread should be a little darker than the previous side. Eat.

Risotto is really easy to make, you're just boiling rice in whatever you want it to taste like. Here's the basic chicken alfredo flavored kind I make: Sauté a couple cups of rice in butter, arborio is the best grain of rice for it but it's on the expensive side For every cup of rice, add a cup of milk and a cup of chicken broth to a pot Add the buttery rice, some garlic powder, some powdered parmesan and some basil Boil it down until the liquid turns into a thick sauce If the rice is still too raw, add more liquid Alternatively, throw all that poo poo in an Instant Pot, it takes about ten minutes on the rice setting to make risotto The classic. big nipples big life posted:Buy a 5 lbs chuck roast, put it in a slow cooker, pour a jar of pepperoncinis on top. cook for 8-10 hours. Eat killer sandwiches for days. Pickled pepperoncini makes amazing sandwiches. Right before Thanksgiving I like to grab some hoagie rolls and a jar of pepperoncini, then spend the next few days reheating the turkey and gravy with them and some mozzarella for some of the best meals I have all year. It's great to slice up on pizza too.
