Unfortunately Tesco beckons for me toneet for the fortnightly visit (ow i do look forward to it!) stood around leaning on the trolley looking like a wet drip while you women ponder over which one to grab lol.
Anyways winge over, what i was wanted to ask was, has anyone got any ideas for a quick meal when we get back home, im doing a green day today and had a few pasta n sauce this week so fancy something different so any ideas would be greatly appreciated, but remember im a male, useless in the kitchen but i have microwave skills and washing up skills so not too bad, oh and the local tea masher (forgot that one lol)

PS: I like almost anything, not struck on hot spicy things, and that tofu, quorn and quark stuff yuk.

A mug shot pasta or noodle
Empty sachet into mug fill with hot water wait 5 mins
Done.

Even my man can do it and the only thing he makes in the kitchen is a mess!!!!!!
 
Another recipe I like is onions and peppers chopped up and cooked in fry light, add mushrooms, sweetcorn, peas and chopped up quorn sausages. To this then add tin chopped tomatoes, paprika, mixed herbs, salt and pepper. Cook on a low heat for about 15 mins. It is really tasty and really filling. You can serve it with rice or pasta or just on its own. Makes a great lunch reheated the next day too
