Answers:
An omelette
Beans on toast!
Beanie wienies, open can of pork and beans and cut up hot dogs. Heat and eat.
Corn Tortillas, Big can of enchillda sauce,,,, and cheese ...... cheese enchildas are so good,,,
For the Enchiladas, lightly grease a 9x13-inch Pyrex dish, and preheat your oven to 400°F degrees.
grate the cheese, and set aside.
Heat the oil in a second skillet. Have the corn tortillas ready.
Putting the enchiladas together is just a series of steps . And if you're the kind of cook that freaks out when the kitchen gets a little messy, you might want to consider finding a good Tex-Mex restaurant instead.
Make sure you wear a old t-shirt or apron just incase because the sauce does stain.....

If you really want to cook, I guess bread soup. Water, bread, bread. Can't get simpler than that, but with the right herbs and flavours can be quite nice. Or just keep it simple.
If cooking is not a must, lettuce, with oil, salt and vinegar dressing, slice of bread. Carrot and tomatoes.
Bruschetta: tosted bread, salt, rub a garlic clove on the bread, oil. Tomato (fresh) optional.
chicken soup
Chicken, water, veggies, salt, pepper (rice)

Rub chicken breast with fresh chopped rosemary, chopped garlic, olive oil, salt an pepper and grill! Totally herbaceous!
a very good dish that my family loves.....simple cheap and very filling........
we call it crows nest
1 -2lbs hamburger (ground and salt and pepper, maybe a little garlic powder and onion powder)
2 cans corn drained or 1 can drained corn and 1 can cream corn
4-6 potatoes (made like mashed potatoes)
layer hamburger, then corn (if using one can of each mix them together first) the the mashed potatoes on top. add a little melted butter and bake at 375 until golden.
my family also like Mexican lasagna....
1 lb hamburger
1 pack taco seasoning
1 can re-fried beans
1-2 lbs cheese
2 cans enchilada sauce
1 can olives
sour cream
1 pack corn tortillas
ground up hamburger, drain add taco seasoning and re-fried beans mix and set aside.
cut tortillas in to strips (all of them)
in a baking dish layer tortillas, hamburger mixture, cheese, olives and enchilada sauce until all ingredients are used top layer should be tortilla's, enchilada sauce and the cheese cover and bake at 375 for 30 minutes uncover and bake and additional 15 minutes.
Both of these dishes are cheap and easy and very filling and are great reheated.
Hope this helps
mashed potatoes! my favorite food, and so easy, although also easy to make fancier by adding spices and garlic, and butter, and cream... but even that's pretty simple. it's amazing the ammount of variety you can get with mashed potatoes.
Roast Chicken and roast potatoes
Try the book "Take 6 Ingredients" by Conrad Gallagher. 100 recipes none of which have more than 6 components. Gourmet food with very little fuss - I use it for dinner parties and get rave reviews.
It might sound disgusting to any of you's..... but i love rice and gravy....?
Rice balls! All you need is Japanese sticky rice.
Maybe add some furikake (sprinkly bits) or pickled plums or sesame seeds or nori (seaweed).
But basically it's just rice that you squish into a ball-shape known as nigiri (which means the action of squishing into a ball-shape. NB not literal translation)
Pasta, Basil Pesto, Toasted pine nuts and parmesan cheese........
