Check the freezer for frozen burritos, pizza, or a tv dinnner. Heat in the microwave according to the directions and you have something to eat. Also check the fridg for some leftovers from the last few days that you could heat up. Failing that make a sandwich and a bowl of soup-very simple and easy.

I love a fried egg sandwich. Toast 2 slices of bread and butter them well. Fry an egg "hard" (no runny yolks), salting and peppering it well. Place fried egg on buttered side of toast. Add slice of cheese and a splash of hot sauce. Place other slice of toast, buttered side against cheese. Yumm!!

~~~~~~~~ Grilled Cheese Sandwich ~~~~~~~~
A perennial favorite: soft melted cheese and pressed, buttery toast.
2 slices Cheddar, American, or Swiss cheese
2 slices white bread
2 tbsp butter

Put the cheese between the slices of bread. Heat 1 tablespoon of the butter in a skillet or grill and when melted add the sandwich. Gently press down with a spatula once or twice during the grilling. When one side is golden, add the remaining tablespoon of butter, turn the sandwich over, and brown.

Grilled Cheese with Bacon. Fry 3 slices bacon until cooked but not crisp. Pat dry of excess fat, add on top of the cheese, and grill as directed.

Grilled Cheese with Ham. Put 2 thin slices ham on the cheese and grill as directed. Serve with sweet pickle.

Onion-Cheese Sandwich. Follow the recipe for Grilled Cheese Sandwich, but lightly coat 1 slice of bread with Dijon mustard. Sauté 3 to 4 slices onion in butter and put on top of the cheese. Cover and grill.

Tomato-Cheese Sandwich. Follow the recipe for Grilled Cheese Sandwich, but add two thin slices tomato to the sandwich before grilling.
