What to cook?? I forgot to take dinner out and it's time to start the pot.. any ideas?? Family of 5....?!
Answers: Kraft Dinner
Breakfast...its' my go to meal in a pinch.
Pancakes would do well for your family- and fresh fruit.
spaghetti is always the easiest quickest fix for a lot of people...
good luck!
taco salad!
Macaroni & Cheese
Pasta
Fried rice.
Cook your rice. Scramble your eggs and mix together.
Add seasoning and anything else that you want, ham, sweetcorn, mushrooms etc...
micro wave that frozen stuff
or crack out the omlettes
Just do a stir dry or a rub. Take some meat, rub it down with mustard and garlic, chop it up really fine, either stir fry it or put it in a pan to roast, make some rice or noodles to go on the side and throw together a salad. Tada!
I do breakfast in times like that too. or i always try to have everything for Spaghetti in the house. Just for occasions like this!.
Guess what we are having for dinner tonite? lol
Pasta with clam sauce. Cook angel hair pasta until it's al dente. Take 1 - 2 cans of clams and pour out 3/4s of the juice. Add to pasta. Squeeze juice of 1-3 lemons. Drizzle some olive oil. Add chopped garlic from jar or 3-4 cloves and voila! YUMMMY! Bake some garlic toast, either frozen or french bread, lots of butter and garlic. Get out the parmesan cheese and you are set for a delicious, cost efficient meal!
uh cereal jk make some spagetti or somethin like pizza bread
Soup and sandwich..don't know what your husband likes but it always works for kids. Or a breakfast for dinner.. scrambled eggs, toast, or french toast, bacon or sausage. Grilled cheese sammys are always good. Husband might not like it but it works for kids. Other than that.. I always call out for Chinese.
Bake 5 big potatoes.... When they're soft, "fluff" them up and heat up a can (or 2) of chili and put it in the potatoes. You can put shredded lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, and/or salsa on top of that......... That's my "I forgot to take out dinner dinner"
I would make an omelete with cheese, onion, tomato, etc.
Depends on what you keep on hand and what your family likes...
My gramma alwasy did this stir in...
Hamburger, noodles and beef bullion
2 quart pan with water
add beef bullion
bring to boil and add hamburger broken into bits... or frozen and break up as it cooks
when hamburger is almost done add noodles and cook till aldente

add soy sauce, pepper to taste and butter
Drain broth and add
ketchup (burger minus the bun)
bbq sauce
cheese (cheese burger pasta)
sour cream
ranch dressing (similar to a stroganof)
taco seasoning and salsa (taco pasta)
pretty much anything... and a combonation of anything...

1 stick plus 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
4 ounces semisweet chocolate, with 60 percent cocoa solids
2 eggs
3/4 cup superfine sugar
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
Special equipment: 4 (2/3 to 1-cup capacity) ramekins
Place a baking sheet in the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F.
Butter the ramekins with 1 tablespoon butter.
Either in a microwave or in a bowl suspended over a pan over
simmering water, melt the dark chocolate and 1 stick butter,
then set aside to cool a little.
In another bowl, mix the eggs with the sugar and flour with a
hand whisk and beat in the cooled butter and chocolate mixture.
Divide the mixture between the 4 buttered ramekins. Bake for
about 20 minutes, by which time the tops will be cooked and
cracked and the chocolate gooey underneath.
Place each ramekin on a small plate with a teaspoon and serve.
Make sure to warn people that these desserts will be HOT!
