[quote=Anonymous]An easier way to think of this is to ensure that you have staples in your pantry and a handful of memorized, forgiving recipes. 1) Pasta + sauce. Endless variations - spaghetti with marinara; frozen tortellini or penne with pesto (buy from Costco); linguine with frozen shrimp, lemon, and olive oil; spaghetti with fried egg and parm, etc., etc. 2) Rice + protein + veggie. If you're pressed for time, you can get frozen rice from TJs. Protein could be chicken, beef, tofu. 3) Indian simmer sauces + protein + rice or naan. 4) Burritos - use leftover rice, add beans, guac, cheese, and salsa. 5) Big salads. Look up "dense bean salad" and make a giant bowl, serve with baguette. Serve with baguette (I buy from Costco, cut up into sections, and freeze.) 6) Chili with or without meat. This freezes and heats up beautifully. You can actually serve chili with pasta (Cincinnati style) or with rice (Hawaiian style) or over a baked potato. [/quote]
