Favorite recipes? ~ Bachelor needs FOOD!
 
Okay, as most of you know I'm a bachelor, my diet consists mostly of pizza, pasta, chinese take out, Raman noodles and sandwiches. I'm a fairly good cook when I want to be and lately I've been in the mood for some 'real' food but am kind of bored with my 'repertoire' and would love some fresh ideas.

I would love to know what your favortie recipes are. Especially things like caserols and 'crockpot dishes' and/or things that are easy and make good 'left overs' so I can eat it for a couple of days.

Yum Yum!!!

No, no, no, no. You do not cook, too. You aren't real are you? You are a bunch of woman playing with peoples' minds. You love yorkies, you are single, you have a boat, and now you want us to believe you can cook too? Sorry, nope, don't believe it. But, just in case you do, one that's really easy and my family loves it:

Shepards Pie
1lb ground beef (or turkey if you are eating healthy), browned and drained
1 lg can of peas and carrots, drained
1 lg can of creamed corn
Mashed potatoes. (left over or even instant taste ok with this, though I hate instant otherwise)

PAM a casserole dish, layer meat, then peas and carrots, then corn. Top off with mashed potatoes, spread to the edges of the dish. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.

Dang, now I'm hungry!

Kirby's Dad 05-11-2006 10:52 AM
LOL! I didn't say I DO cook (all that often) but yes I CAN cook. For my last Valenitines day when I was married, I made Lobster Thermador, YUMMMMM!

And you're not going to beleive this but I have actually been thinking about looking for a recipe for shepherds pie! That is too weird!

Dang, I'm hungry now too!!!!

Just to get you going, one of the easiest recipe I could think of that really isn't a recipe is getting those corned beef in a bag with those packets (very famous during shamrock/irish event) . . . all you have to do it throw it in the crockpot with water and simmer until tender. Then just use the liquid to boil carrots and cabbage and you're set. . . they are good leftovers too.

My advise, get a good wife that cooks! :D

OMG that sounds good! I think this thread was big mistake, they say don't go to the grocery store when you're hungry because you'll buy too much, also, don't start a thread about recipes when you're hungry, you won't be able to decide on a what to cook and then you'll be shopping and cooking all night!! :eek:

Tiggerwit 05-11-2006 11:10 AM
Do a search, there was recently a thread for just this thing. There were some great ideas on there.

chachi 05-11-2006 11:11 AM
Yummy that shepards pie sounds good. I wrote down the recipe

rrosenberry 05-11-2006 11:12 AM
Go to www.foodtv.com and look at 30 min meals or just watch the food channel, I get a lot of easy, quick ideas off of there.

CHICKEN BOG

(4) chicken breasts
(1) kilbassa sausage
(4 to 5) bags of boil in bag rice
salt and pepper to taste
(1) bottle of Parka spray butter - the one that has 0% fat - This is a must, you cannot use reg. butter. If you have never tried this butter then you need to!
(1) can of chicken broth
(optional) banna peppers

- Boil 4 chicken breasts (frozen or fresh but skinless)
- keep the broth in the pot and remove chicken
- add cut up kilbassa and 4 bags of boil in bag rice
- tear up chicken and add it after the rice and is done
- you may need to add more rice if it's still watery or you may need to add
some of the can of chicken broth if it's to dry
- mix together and salt and pepper to taste

When you put it into your bowl then you want to pour some of the spray on butter on it. (It just add some extra flavor to it)

If you like banna peppers then you can add some of those also.

Thisi is a simple recipe and it's lasts a few days. My husband and I fix it alot

Oh, you poor babee...these are some silly and dense women replying to your thread....you come on over, and I'll fix you dinner. Then hit the couch after. You can sit on my lap or snuggle real close....I mean Kirby, Kirby can .....;) LOL.

Required disclaimer....calm down...I was kidding...well, about the fixing supper part. :rolleyes:

Here ya go....
1 pkg boneless chicken breast
1 pkg frozen mixed veggies
2 cans chicken broth
3 bay leaves
1 pkg egg noodles
2 cans cream of chicken soup
Cut up the chicken into bit size pieces, throw (manly cooking term) into the crock pot w/ veggies, broth, and bay leaves (you can leave these out, you're a man, you probably don't have bay leaves :rolleyes: )
Cook on low 8-10. Pour egg noodles in crock pot....takes 30-45 minutes to cook these....add the cream of chicken soup.
Quantity....enough for at least 3 days. :)

OMG!! Your pantry is incredible!! Here's a pic of my 'cupboard', pretty sad huh? :( (don't have enough stuff for a pantry, I have a pantry but it's full of office supplies) :rolleyes: .

Your pantry is SOOO cool!!!! I'm way impressed!!!

I NEED to get in the habit of cooking more. I love that! When I'm hungry I usually call someone and they bring it to me! LOL, I'm on a first name basis with the elderly chinese delivery man that barely speakes English! (his name is John :confused: go figure??)

A man that cooks??? That's a TOTALLY new concept to me!:eek:

I don't have any favorite dishes. I cook all the time and most of the time, it's just throwing stuff together and it usually comes out better than I expected.

I really hate people like you! I hate to cook. I'm terrible at it. I have like 3 dishes I can make, that's it. Hubby does the cooking at our house. But, Kirby's Dad, he doesn't have a boat!

You should have posted your pantry picture first and then requested only recipes that use those ingredients. ;) And as I expected....no bay leaves.

The Chinese guy goes by John cause you couldn't pronounce his real name. I have a friend who is married to a asian girl....we all call her Marty. I asked him once why her name was Marty....and he said...I could never say her name, so I named her Marty :rolleyes:

Ok, I feel better now, so you're not perfect! And after looking in that cupboard, you've even convinced me you're really a guy. (or you know one!)

LOLOL!! So that is a typical 'guy' pantry huh? You better not look in the fridge then. I'm running some science experiments in there!

Brutus'mama 05-11-2006 12:39 PM
Okay I think you need to go shopping! LOL!! What do you like to eat? I cook everynight and I try to mix it up but it gets kind of boring. I just started using those McCormick bags with the seasoning. You just add meat and whatever it calls for and it's not bad. Best of all no mess!

Last night I made eggplant rollatini with linguini. My husband thinks he's at a restaurant every night and it needs to stop!:D

Do you like Italian red sauce? I call it gravy but I make a huge batch of it with meatballs, sausage, pork and braciole and then freeze it. Whenever we want macaroni it's there.
