...ok, so ive decided i want to eat more past+rice (mostly pasta) as i seem to recently live off burgers+crisps. Just wondering what kinda things you guys put with these foods, that is simple+quick??
so far ive done pasta with tuna+mayo - YUM. And also put it with a tomato/bolognese sauce thingy.
Any other suggestion?

theres some nice sauces about, the stir in ones are so yum cant remember who makes them though.
rice...you could do egg fried rice? with peas mixed in
And yes, for those that havnt figured it out, im a cooking dumbass!
all the components are cooked? if your not adding any kind of sauce to it then you may as well just mix it together and eat it....
but if not, add a sauce and just leave it about half hour or whatever the sauce says
to cook egg fried rice, you boil the rice till its cooked, drain it, put in a hot oily pan, then add whisked egg which will all seperate and go into eggy small bits as it cooks. only takes a few minutes
Buy a can of alfredo sauce
Put some brocolli in a bowl, add a teaspoon of water, cover, stick in the microwave for a bit
grill some chicken
add some pepper
mix
Can also do this with a tomato based sauce.
I also do similar things with rice.
Pasta is a wonderful thing to experiment with. My favourite pasta dish is a Maltese one my mum makes. I make it too, but it is always tastier when your mum cooks (generally!) :yes:
For ease, you have dolmio stir in sauces, pasta bakes etc.
What about a lasagne? It has pasta in it?
Shame the boy dislikes both pesto and mushrooms. We would live on it otherwise.
How would I live without thee and pasta?
What about lasagne, spag bol, tagliatelle etc to make a change from pasta spirals or whatever.
Stir-in sauces are pretty good, and you can usually get ideas from them for what to do yourself as well.
I live off pasta, I love it.
:cool:
you can always add things like mushrooms/peas/sweetcorn (:yuck:)/peppers or cheese for a bit of variation!
