You don't feel like cooking...what is your go to?
Order take out? Pizza? Fast food, I need more ideas. It's Friday and I don't feel like cooking. |

Scrambled eggs and toast
Quesadillas Pasta with Parmesan and butter Leftover gyoza in the freezer ready to be steamed |
| DH is the cook in the family and if he doesn't feel like it I jump in and make something simple. I am a fan of frozen help from Trader Joe's. |

| Amy's frozen pizza and Caesar salad. |
| We had Nepalese takeout and it was so amazing. So glad we were both feeling lazy around 4:00pm |
| We always have something in the freezer, but also do takeout if we want a change. |
| Freezer: burritos or dumplings |
| When I don’t feel like cooking I do something like nachos or pizza using whatever I have on hand as a base. If I have to produce for the family I resort to takeout. |
| Fridge ambush: construct dinner from whatever’s already in there. Tonight was one of those nights: couscous with tomatoes, carrots, pine nuts, and hummus. |
| Pasta and jarred sauce with sliced veggie Italian “sausage” on top at our house tonight. |

I mix canned corn, canned black bean, sour cream, chopped hard boiled egg, shredded cheese, Taco Bell chipotle sauce, then wrap in a tortilla, it’s easy healthy and fast.
Hummus or guacamole on bread, with a hard boiled egg sprinkled with salt or ketchup, with banana and milk. We always have naan in freezer which can be used to make pizza just by adding pizza sauce and shredded cheese ( we use it to pair with cooked impossible burger from freezer, just add sliced tomato, pickled cucumber and ketchup or chipotle sauce). Frozen gyoza can be cooked in rice cooker with parchment paper, frozen spring roll can be baked in oven. Pair vegetable soup made with snacking seaweed, miso, corn, spinach then add an egg. |
| Pasta with cheese and butter, or pasta with garlic and olive oil. |
|
If it’s just me…sliced Campari tomatoes on a poppy seed bagel covered with lots of extra sharp cheddar cheese and toasted for three cycles in the toaster oven. Comfort food.

I give DH the big doe-eyes and he makes pasta with jarred sauce.
Or we order takeout. Chinese, Indian, pizza, bbq, Peruvian chicken ... have a long list of favorites. |
