Live For Food

I’ve been having some dishwasher problems recently.  There seems to be something wrong with the pump, and its probably related to some recent drain problems we’ve been having, so I haven’t been able to use it.  I’m really not a fan of washing up and with a small kitchen the dishwasher also ends up acting as storage, so in the absence of being able to use it my menu planning has revolved around dinners that can cook in a maximum of two pans or dishes.

Yes its a pie in a tin.  And to be honest, nutritionally its pretty rubbish, its full of pastry and fat and all sorts of tasty stuff.  You take the tin lid off with a tin opener and cook it in the tin on a baking tray, and the puff pastry top rises.  I put foil on my baking tray (as often the gravy spills over) so minimal washing up there.  They are very, very tasty in my opinion, and at least having some vegetables with it balances the meal.

Chicken stirfry – veg and chicken all in a pan, stir in a sauce or make your own.  I would have used straight to wok noodles as well, but I’d run out so I had to use a separate pan for some rice.

Tramadol Online Cod Payment Chicken and root veg casserole – chop up some chicken and vegetables including a bit of onion, add some chicken stock and herbs and spices of your choice and pop it in the oven for a couple of hours.  I included some potato so I didn’t do any other kind of accompaniment.  Stir in a spoonful of cornflour half an hour before the end of the cooking time to thicken the sauce up.  I quite like Moroccan style spices at the moment, they are very warming in the winter – some turmeric, cinnamon, ginger and black pepper.  I think the original of this recipe was a slow cooker recipe but it transfers well to a standard casserole.

Tramadol Online Nz Chicken fajitas – these are a good way to used up cooked chicken off a roast.  I just fry up some chicken, onion, mushroom and red pepper.  I add some fajita spice, lime juice and coriander.  Pop it in a tortilla wrap and top with cheese slivers, iceberg lettuce, and some salsa or natural yoghurt.

So there you have it, ideas for creating less washing up.  Hopefully the dishwasher will get fixed or I shall have investigate the one pot recipe book I have somewhere.  Or I suppose I could just get to grips with the washing up!
