Answer 1

Yea go to the store get you some chicken breasts, a can of cream of mushroom, also get you some small graham pie shells, get some vanilla pudding or whatever flavor you'll like, a can of strawberry pie filling, and potatoes. ANd get some tea or whatever you drink. and if you like get you some cranberry juice for the tea. Sorry make sure the chicken is boneless. SO when you get home put the chicken in teh oven 350 for 20 minutes just to get teh blood out, ok then put the cream of mushroom all over the checken breasts make sure its' all covered might need two cans. put back in oven at 350 for 20 minutes and it's ready eat. Becarefull it will be hot. Then make meshed pototoes. ANd for dessert make the pudding and put equal amount in the pie shells. put in frig for a while just before you are about to eat put the strawberry pie filling in the pies. or do it when they want their dessert. They will love it. ANd it's easy to make. Need more idea just im mail me anytime.

Ann Landers Meatloaf.... I clipped this from the newspaper a few years back and have made it several times. The next day, meatloaf sandwiches are a classic comfort food

2 lbs ground round
2 eggs
1 1/2 C. bread crumbs

1 pkg Lipton Onion Soup mix
2 strips bacon
1 8 oz can tomato sauce

Preheat oven to 350. . Combine the first 7 ingredients and mix thoroughly. Place in loaf pan. Cover with tomato sauce. Place bacon strips over the sauce. Bake 1 hour. Serves 6.

I know Spag' Bol is a bit of a culinary cliche, but it's easy and uses mince. If he's been away as long as a week, dare I suggest that he's going to need some red meat for later? BOLOGNESE SAUCE Enough for spaghetti for 2 INGREDIENTS 2 cloves of garlic 2 onions 1 tablespoon of olive oil 500g of minced beef 400g tin of plum tomatoes* 1 beef stock cube 2 teaspoons of oregano or mixed herbs Ground pepper to taste METHOD Peel the garlic and chop it into tiny pieces. Peel the onions and chop them into tiny pieces. Put the oil into a frying pan on a medium heat. Add the garlic and onion. Fry the garlic and onion for about 2 minutes. Stir frequently to stop it sticking. Put the meat into the pan and fry for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring all the time. By this time, it should have broken up and be an even colour, with no pink bits. Open the tin of tomatoes. Pour the juice into the pan. Chop the tomatoes while they are still in the can (it’s easier than chasing them around the pan). Pour the chopped tomatoes into the pan. Crumble the stock cube into the pan. Add the herbs. Season with the pepper. Mix thoroughly. Continue to cook, stirring as the mixture boils, until the sauce has reduced. ADDITIONS & ALTERNATIVES Use minced lamb, pork or turkey instead of minced beef. Serve with grated Parmesan cheese. TIPS Always “take the pasta to the sauce”. Put the cooked pasta in the pan with the sauce and stir together until thoroughly coated. * Plum tomatoes can be used either whole or chopped. It is difficult to stick chopped tomatoes back together again if you need to use them whole.

If you want to eat truly healthy, lose body fat consistently, normalize your blood pressure, cholesterol levels, prevent cancer, and even boost your brain health and energy levels, you may have heard all over the news that the Paleo Diet has been found to be one of the best methods of achieving all of these benefits compared to any other popular "fad" diets out there. Go here https://bitly.im/aMmvO

The truth is that the Paleo Diet will never be considered a fad because it's just simply the way that humans evolved to eat over approximately 2 million years. And eating in a similar fashion to our ancestors has been proven time and time again to offer amazing health benefits, including prevention of most diseases of civilization such as cancer, heart disease, alzheimers, and other chronic conditions that are mostly caused by poor diet and lifestyle. One of the biggest misunderstandings about the Paleo Diet is that it's a meat-eating diet, or a super low-carb diet. This is not true

Answer 9

sounds like you like to stretch your dollar with those choices! I would suggest a huge pot of chilli! or homemade soup (you can even use a soup starter) its cold and those would warm you up for little money! if you are somewhere warm I would suggest tacos, they are fun and pretty cheap and very easy.
