Laziest Recipes!

[Navvan]

Easiest of the easy:
Anything that can be eaten raw or is a simple heat and eat (pasta/sauce and the like)

Easy but actually involves seasoning:

Put Cajun seasoning on chicken breast.
Cook Chicken breast and baked potatoes.
Add toppings of choice to baked potates
Eat.

Actual Recipe that is easy and involves more than one ingredient.
Cajun Chicken Pasta Salad
Bowtie/Farfalle Pasta Noodles
4 Cajun Seasoned chicken breasts cut up into chunks
3-4 bundles Green Onions
2 cans of Olives (sliced or whole based on preference)
Tomatoes (optional pending on if you like tomatoes)
Peppercorn ranch

Those are the easiest things I regularly like to eat/cook.

Alternatively: eggs, coffee cup, microwave.

That's a great way to get salmonella. Microwaves don't COOK food, so you're leaving all the bacteria on the eggs.

As for my lazy meals, one is cook pasta, add parmesean, lemon juice, salt, and butter. Cannot count the number of times I've just said "I'm hungry" only to discover I've already made that dish.

There are a couple of things wrong with that statement.

First Microwaves do indeed cook food in the same fundamental way an oven or stove does. By heating it up to high temperatures (albeit by different methods). The question is are those elevated temperatures sustained long enough to ensure most harmful bacteria are killed. The answer is like you assume most likely not due to the rapid nature of the microwave. This is why we don't microwave raw pork to cook it.

Secondly and more importantly Salmonella and other harmful bacteria are not present in eggs in sufficient quantities to be harmful unless mishandled. If the eggs have been stored correctly and are not cracked there is virtually 0 chance of there being any complications in eating them unless you have a weak immune system.

Cheese And Tomato Soup is a old(ish) family recipe of mine, actually. It's so easy and lazy that I can do it.

1) Find a block of cheese and some tomato soup in a can. (added stuff in the soup is fine, cheese is any kind so long as it's a block of the stuff.)
2) grate cheese.
3) Stick cheese and tinned soup in a saucepan.
4) Cook as normal. Stir every so often.
5) Eat.

See? Simple as that.

Buy bread. Eat bread.

Pretty hard to get more lazy than that.

Challenge accepted.

Freeze water. Eat ice cubes.

 

[Soundwave]

Place flour tortilla in greased pan, sprinkle a line of shredded cheese down the middle. When the cheese melts you fold the sides in and flip it over. Heat it for like 10-15 seconds and eat before it gets cold. Sometimes I put sun dried tomatoes in them.

I like to just buy a bunch of tomatoes, beans, and hamburger and make a gigantic batch of chili. That can typically do its job to feed me for about a week and a half.

When I had an oven, I take a large cooking pot, pour in some chicken broth, put in chicken or steak and then cook it for an hour. It always comes out super juicy and delicious. Usually, I sprinkle on seasoning and parsley stuff. ^^ Very easy clean up and not hard to make. I pretty much had that for a year.

Piss easy pork chops.

Heat over to 200c. In roasting dish, add salt, pepper, garlic and rosemary. Place pork chops on top. Add same ingredients again on top and drizzle with oil. Roast for 15 to 20 minutes.

These things are so easy, and taste bloody awesome too. This is probably the easiest recipe I cook. I like to put a little more effort into food than your average bachelor. Like Robert Rodriguez said... Not knowing how to cook is like not knowing how to fuck.

OK, you know what? I just got home from buying groceries for the weekend/next week and I ended up getting pork chops 50% off. Now some random person is feeding me a recipe that sounds awesome. Thank you sir, you just gave my dinner an upgrade.

OT: My favourite lazy recipe would be chicken. It's up to you how much you want to put into it, but I usually get chicken breasts, give them a quick round in the frying pan to get them crispy on the outside and use the chance to apply spices. Then I put them in the oven at 200c for about an hour, after 30 minutes I add vegetables and add some cheese on the top. I serve with rice on the side.

Well, if you end up trying this one out, let us know what you think. And funnily enough, I bought chicken tits yesterday too, so I might just have to try that for lunch today.

Actually, microwave scrambled eggs if perfectly safe. Also, incredibly easy and quick too. The trick is to cook it in 5 to 10 second hits, stirring each time. And don't add salt until after it's cooked. Otherwise it sucks too much moisture out. I used to do this every day when I was getting to the gym at 5am before work.

Bucket Lunch

1. throw everyone's remaining lunch food in bucket
3. mix and serve

Its like Scroggin (Trail mix and confectionery mixture) became a meal, and proof that after a few days in the bush -anything- is edible and tasty.

That's fairly similar to one that I'l cook when out in the bush with Army. If I'm working at the CP driver, there are usually 4 or 5 other people in the CP too. So I'll take everyones main ration pack meal, mix them all in a pot with some pasta and heat. We called it a "train smash".

It turned out great, thanks for asking and good luck with your chicken. Also what are the odds of this?

The famous grilled cheese sandwich.

You take two slices of bread. You butter one side of each of the slices. You put cheese (American "cheese", despite not being cheese, works well because of how melty it is) in between the bread with the buttered sides out. You grill it for however long you want.

BAM. Best meal ever.

Also, another good one is a mixture of leftover rice, leftover chicken, and leftover corn. Put all of the stuff in a bowl, microwave it, and enjoy.

Step 1: Let your stomach eat itself


easy enough no?

 

[Nubrain]

Since no one has mentioned easy deserts I thought i'd mention a few.

Chocolate "Moose"

1. Dump two packets of chocolate pudding mix in a bowl
2. Add 4 cups of Milk and mix
3. Fold in one tub of cool whip.
4. Chill at least 10 minutes longer if you can wait.

It's one of my favorite quick desert recopies because you can play around with it a lot. make it with sugar free pudding mix and low sugar cool whip and it's a diabetic/diet desert. use whole milk or swap out a cup for a can of sweetened condensed milk and you get something much richer and sinful. It's great to bring to family gatherings because everyone thinks it is hard to make and fancy but it takes no effort to make and it makes a lot. In fact it takes much more effort not to just sit down and eat the whole thing than it does to make it.

Here's another easy one.

Blueberries, Milk and Sugar.

1. Add Blueberries and milk in a bowl
2. Sprinkle with sugar.
3. enjoy.

 

[Hazy]

You're welcome.

 

[GTwander]

Frozen peas + velveeta.

Lazy, but epic.


(and microwaves DO cook food, they are a molecular steamer. Bacteria do not survive)

Another good one is can of cream of potato soup + can of solid white albacore.

~and my pops picked something up while in Sweden that's amazing:
Drained can of kidney beans + diced onion and pumpkin seed oil (shit is green). Serve as is.

 

[Blitsie]

My favorite is 'Ze Red Meat Speciale' for those lazy mornings after a nice late night barbeque. You basically cut up any leftover red meat you have, chuck it into a pan and reheat it while adding anything that looks tasty to it. My best combo is chutney, Tabasco and Worcester sauce with one chopped tomato.

But if all else fails, chocolate cereal with chocolate milk. Food of the lazy gods, that is.

 

[Jason Rayes]

Baked beans + canned tuna + salsa + cheese. Microwave it. Tastes pretty damn awesome.

That's pretty good actually. I even have beans IN salsa sauce already so I just need to get some tuna

Here's a simple one most of you should know. Muesli only use low fat yoghurt instead of milk. Its filling and healthy too (Unlike most things I make)

Biscuits and gravy

Cook buttermilk or flaky biscuits however it says on the can

Get one of those rolls of Jimmy Dean sausage in the plastic with the ends tied up.

Put that shit in a pan and cook it until it's cooked.

Alternate putting in milk and flour and whisk with great vigor while doing all this. Keep putting in milk and flour until it's as thick as you want

Crack open the biscuits and dump some gravy on and eat until you collapse from joy.
