What's your "fuck I've got no food in" dinner?

[BernadetteRostankowskiWolowitz]

Mines pasta. With whatever I can find to chuck at it/stir into it.

Anyone have any failsafe dinners they know they always have in?

Lentil soup. Veggie curry. Bacon and eggs. Fish finger sandwhich

Beans on toast. Poached eggs on toast. Baked potatoes with cheese 😊

Risotto.

Waffles made in waffle maker. Bananas eggs and oats. Lovely and quick

Pasta with whatever vegetables and garlic.

Although it doesn't take us much persuasion to get a takeaway from the bbq place nearby.

Always have onions, tinned tomatoes, rice, pasta, lentils and beans and couscous and frozen veg, so always a bean curry, or lentil stew with rice/pasta/couscous and veg

Cheesy beans on toast ...has to be Heinz though!!

I usually have ikea meatballs in the freezer and tins of chopped tomatoes as quick backup meal, or tins of tuna and sweetcorn in the cupboard. We have either with pasta.

If really stuck something with eggs, bread, beans, cheese (eggy bread, cheese omelette, poached eggs on toast, cheesy beans on toast etc)

Pasta and cheese. Pasta salad with ham and cucumber. Fish finger sandwich (food of the Gods regardless of what other food you have it!) Beans/cheese/eggs on toast.

Happened here tonight. We had thai curry with coconut milk, new potatoes, water chestnuts and bamboo shoots using up cupboard stuff.

I keep those microwaveable baked potatoes in the freezer. You can add all sorts (tuna, baked beans, chopped up bacon and onion, pasta sauce, cheese etc) on top to make a dinner and its quick.
Eggs also can have anything you've got in the fridge mixed in to make a frittata.

Tuna pasta,
Bacon pasta
Cheesy pasta
Risotto
Beans on toast
Dirty fries

Take out for us.

Pasta with some sauce for our DS. I always have my veggie tomatoe sauce frozen in the freezer to fold in or make a cheese sauce and throw in whatever is lurking, broccoli, cauliflower or anything really

Tattie ash.

Always keep a tin of corned beef in and generally will have potatoes, onions and carrots lurking.

Failing that chorizo pasta. I keep a couple of chorizo in the freezer, always have garlic and spices. Couple of tins of tomatoes, stir in a load of pasta and serve.

For me - rice with green peas, & a good splash of coconut aminos (soy sauce alternative). With a mini omelette if there's any eggs.
For DH & DD - we usually keep a frozen pack of sausages & a tin of beans in the cupboard. Or a frozen pizza, just in case. They are beyond saving, & won't contemplate slightly odd & mismatched "cupboard food". It's got to be unhealthy, cheesy and/or meaty, & full of stodge...

Curry.

Egg and chips.

I want egg and chips now...crisp oven chips, runny egg, what's not to love. Guess what I don't have in the house ?

I remember my mum making fried flour and water bread. Bit like a chapati. Completely delicious with butter and jam.

When we have nothing for breakfast or a poor freezer tea I make these.

Baked potatoes, beans and cheese

Tuna pasta thing - tin of condensed mushroom soup, mixed with tin of flaked tuna, mixed with pasta, served with peas. So easy and much nicer than it sounds.

Poached eggs on toast.

Thick main -meal soup made with onion and whatever veg I happen to have, any suitable leftovers or e.g. the last, lonely dried up bit of ham or bacon rasher, plus a handful of red lentils/pearl barley/Orzo pasta (looks like rice) or all three, stock cube(s). Dh loves it. Was my mother’s standby when she was broke, always known as Dustbin Soup.

This is some definition of ‘Got no food in’ that I don’t recognise!
My mum used to specialise in this, on one memorable occasion it was a tin of mushy peas on white rice. On another it was pasta with tomato ketchup. Literally the only things she had in the house, not poor just disorganised and uninterested.
No food in the house = takeaway

Just remembered one I used to do for the kids:
Rice noodles
Frozen edameme beans
S oy sauce
Chilli sauce
Scraps of anything else that might be lying around, although roasted tofu strips were the best thing

DH grew up in poverty, it was steal your dinner or starve quite a lot. So he's a tin hoarder. There's always tins of soup, tuna, beans and spaghetti. And a frozen loaf.

I'm reading it as 'haven't been to the shops/have been out all day and forgot to get the meat out/end of the week and didn't plan' got nothing in, not 'got no money to food shop' got nothing in.
