    Re: In a rut !

    My simple but quick (i.e done and eaten within an hour) staples are:

    Thai Chicken curry
    Chilli con carne
    Chicken fajitas
    Chicken (or beef) stir fry (get a pack of noodles and beansprouts and a sachet of sauce)
    Lamb Casserole
    Salmon fillets with lemon and black pepper

    and I'm gonna try that tangine of G8ina's over the weekend.

    I'm also by myself (aww) but cook for 4 and freeze the rest - so the next meals are done within half an hour!

    Re: In a rut !

    Easy Peasy very quick chicken with Cous Cous and Orange:

    Grill some Chicken (breast, thigh whatever you want)
    Make up some chicken stock from a stock cube
    Make the cous cous according to instuctions (basically pour hot water on it) BUT use the chicken stock instead of water.
    Peel an orange, and slice the segments up into chunks.

    Then just throw the whole lot onto a plate and eat it. If you want you can add a green veg such as brocolli or peas etc.

    If you've not eaten cous cous before, it's kind of like rice, but way easier to cook and less bland (especially if made in stock instead of water).
    They told me I was gullible ... and I believed them.
