i totally agree with the cold cuts! I really don't like cooking on a hot day, so I usually stock up on cold stuff, like potato salad and or deviled eggs, veggies, fruits, and cold pasta.

I microwave either soup or store-brand Spaghetti Os.  Actually, I do that quite a bit.  Hmm.

Now that it's getting hot outside we usually go for cold cuts and sandwiches.  We only eat out when we have some extra cash or if we're (or should I say I'm) feeling extremely lazy and what something hot without heating up the house.

Sometimes I just raid whatever's available like peanut butter on bread or an apple, jerky, fruit, quick salad, etc. :dontknow:

When I don't feel like cooking I usually nuke a tv dinner. My preference is Marie Calandar's honey chicken with seet potatoes.

I look in the freezer, grab a meat and throw some things together. Usually it turns out pretty good. Any meat, add some onions and peppers. I had some chicken strips in the freezer. I didn't know what to do. I fried them up added some onions, peppers, and soy. Cooked some noodles. Added some terriyaki to the chic. Tossed it all together. It turned out pretty good.

If its a very hot day and I dont feel like cooking I usually will give my children some money to go get them something quick to eat that day when I have a couple of dollars thats why I am trying to earn money from here to give them a couple of dollars.

When I don't want to cook, it's my roommate's turn. Cold cuts are really unhealthy, so I wouldn't cut corners on my family's health just because I'm tired or whatever.

Ramen! Ramen is all I can say when I don't wanna cook!  Just pop it in the microwave for 5 minutes and you get tasty flavored noodles yum!!!

Order out, that's actually where I get the majority of my meals through take-out

Post by: africanclaudie on November 19, 2011, 03:34:19 pm
I get fresh rolls, cold cuts, sliced tomatoes and cheese, some pickles, maybe sliced boiled eggs and every one makes their own combination to eat

I usually fill up on snack foods like apples or other fruit, almonds, cereal or a protein bar or shake.  Sometimes a can of soup or chili takes the place of my cooking.  I try to pick something healthy even when I'm not cooking.

If I don't want to cook (and no one else is going to cook) we will either go out or get take out (i.e. Chinese, Pizza or get a deli sandwich). We use to frequent Boston Market for these scenarios too, but I haven't done that for ages.

Why cook if you don't have too. I go out for Fast food, a resturant, or order pizza. Dishes can wait another night! :D

Sometimes I just pour some cold cereal in a bowl with some fruit added and a piece of toast to go with it.  Its enough to satisfy that growl in my tummy!

there are times when all of us don't want to cook, so how about eating out or heating up a tv dinner? I'd rather go with the tv dinners nowdays. Can't watch what you like and eat out at the same time if you know what I mean... lol.

Well, I would just either buy cold cuts or go and get a frozen dinner. Simple and easy.

Cereal and toast is always a welcome meal at my house.
We also like to make tortilla wraps with lots of different varities of meats, veggies, ranch dressing, it's all good rolled up.

Order Chinese food, then feel sick the whole next day.  Basically order out anything that's easy, cheap, and delicious.
