I need quick and yummy and easy food to make. like those one pot meal things. lemme know what's your specialty. and how you make it. thanks very much.

Answer 1

Mike's Stew: Try this one. Take about a 1 1/2 or 2 lb. beef or pork roast,(Diced) put in a crock pot, pour just enough water on it to cover it. Start the crock pot on high heat. Dice up some onion, carrots, potatoes, celery, and tomatoes and dump them in. Make sure the water level still covers everything. Add 1 tablespoon of garlic, onion powder,salt, and pepper. 1/4 tablespoon of Oregano, and 3 beef bullion cubes. Once the crock has come to a boil, turn it down to low and let it simmer for 3 hours or all day, stirring occationally. If you want it a little spicy you can put in some chopped chilly peppers and / or some hot sauce. (I prefer Texas Pete over Tabassco or let the individual put there own sauce on it) Serve with crackers of your choice. You can even after putting it in a bowl, put a couple of chunks of cheddar cheese on top. MMMMMMM....GOOD! PS. This even frees up your time to do other things, like running to the store or getting ready for your date.

Answer 2

When I think of one Pot i think Crock pot, throw everything in in the morning and looki there it done when ya come home.

Ingredients

1 1/2 lb beef roast
1/2 ts black pepper
2 garlic cloves; minced
1/2 pk onion soup mix
2 ts worcestershire sauce
1 ts steak sauce
3 carrots; sliced
2 celery stalks; diced
1 green bell pepper; chopped
1 yellow onion
1/2 c water
1/2 c tomato juice

Instructions
1. Cut beef roast into serving-sized portions. Use more beef if
you need more than 6 servings. Brown beef in a bit of vegetable oil,
although you can skip this step if rushed for time.
2. Slice onion and separate into rings. Dice the peeled carrots,
dice the celery and slice the peppers into thin strips or circles.
Place these into bottom of crockpot. Sprinkle the beef pieces with
fresh ground black pepper, minced garlic and the onion soup mix.
Place on top of the vegetables.
3. Mix the steak sauce and Worcestershire sauce in a small bowl
with about 1/2 cup water and 1/2 cup tomato juice. Pour this over the
meat.
4. Turn the crockpot to high for 30 minutes, or, if you're in a
hurry, skip this step. Turn to low, cover and cook for 7-9 hours.

* Keep the crockpot covered as much as possible throughout cooking
time. A crockpot can be used to cook this type of meal for a varied
amount of time, depending on your schedule. It is not important that
you take the meat and vegetables out at a specific amount of time.
One or two hours either way usually makes no difference.

When ready to serve, dip meat and vegetables out of pot with a
slotted spoon. Use the liquid as is or turn crockpot to high and
thicken liquid with a little flour or cornstarch.

Answer 3

Lay out some chicken legs and thighs in a casserole dish.

Season with garlic salt & some pepper.

Spoon globs of canned mushroom soup over all the chicken.

Sprinkle with corn flakes.

Pour a cup or so of water into the bottom of the dish

Bake in the oven for an hour at 375 degrees

Enjoy.

For variety, squeeze an orange over everything. Scoop out the orange pulp and spread it around before cooking.

Substitute crunched pieces of Cherios, instead of corn flakes.

Put a cup of rice in the bottom of the dish, along with three cups of water. A few chunks of onion wouldn't hurt. Then put the chicken pieces on top. Of course, do all this before cooking.
