Answer 2

How about Thai red Curry with Duck and Lychees? I just gave this recipe to someone else who was asking about it:

500ml coconut milk
50g Carrots, sliced lengthways
90g canned sliced bamboo shoots
50g sliced baby corn
400g whatever meat you like - Duck breast is excellent, as is chicken
A handful of Lychees, peeled & de-stoned
1 red pepper, sliced
50g bean sprouts
1 tbsp Thai Fish Sauce (Nam Pla)
1 tbsp Sugar
2 medium red chillies, chopped (use the seeds)
4 tsp fresh coriander, chopped
10 fresh Thai basil leaves
10 fresh Thai Kaffir Lime leaves
1 Red Onion, slices
2 Garlic Cloves, sliced
1 inch Galangal root, cut into matchsticks (or Ginger if you cant' find it)

Answer 3

What do you have on hand?

If you have eggs, cheese, and a few vegetables, try an omelette. If you add toast and greens, you can have eggs benedict.

Pasta is versatile. Have that with sauce, or stir-fried vegetables, or herbs and butter.

Soups are usually good. I've seen a number of good recipes, if you don't want Campbell's. Or chili: A few times I've added tomatos and freshly-browned beef to mine to dress it up, with great results.

Take your pick and enjoy!
