If I really can’t be arsed, I don’t bother.

Me too. Just say it's a fast day!

otherwise, it's toast and marmite with a cup of tea, or a bowl of cereal. None of this 'using actual saucepans ' malarky.

Chips and tuna mayo. 10 minutes in the air fryer for the chips, add some cheese if you can be bothered.

Stinkymalinkyfromdownthelane · 27/01/2023 17:53

Pasta, pesto bit of grated cheese 👍😎

Pâté. Not too much.

1stWorldProblems · 27/01/2023 18:02

Pasta parcels - drizzled with olive oil, double cream & Parmesan.

Tinged creamy chicken with a ponce of thyme on toast. Stir in ham or mushrooms if in the fridge.

Chorizo & prawns stir fried together. Serve with pitta breads & lemon mayo.

Spaghetti Carbonara - sauce takes less time to make than the pasta to cook.

Christinatherabbit · 27/01/2023 18:02

Ham and cheese toastie in toastie maker

Chicken super noodles with chicken stock cube added to water

Sainsbury's King Prawn & Chilli Ravioli with a ready made cheese sauce

Omelette with ham cheese and mushrooms

Toast with peanut butter and chopped banana on

Knorr packet chicken noodle soup with extra pastina added. Bit of grated parmesan on top. Plus garlic bread (from freezer, into air fryer.)

WellTidy · 27/01/2023 18:05

Hot dogs. With crispy onions (bought, I haven’t done them myself), ketchup, burger relish and mustard.

CassTheFox · 27/01/2023 16:35

Pasta with Heinz tomato soup as the sauce, lots of cheese to thicken. My favourite tea from my skint student days. Me and my kids love it, my husband is usually appalled by it though 😂

My absolute fave! And not even just on cba days!

CharlesByTheGraceOfGod · 27/01/2023 18:07

Rooibos or maybe a nice chamomile.

inappropriateraspberry · 27/01/2023 18:07

Cheese on toast
Egg on toast (poached, fried or scrambled)
Boiled egg with toast soldiers
Omelette

Microwave jacket potato with beans and cheese
Bacon roll
Soup, sometimes a tin, but I usually make a quick lentil soup

HuntingoftheSnark · 27/01/2023 18:10

Just had it - potato in the microwave, cut open a minute before the end and a tin of spaghetti hoops stuck on top. Another minute and then cheese grated on top.

pilates · 27/01/2023 18:11

Jacket potato cheese and beans

BarrelOfOtters · 27/01/2023 18:14

We ate all the pate in one meal….which in retrospect is a shame.

if dh cooks it’ll be fishfingers sandwich or with chips.

but…not sure we have chips in and can’t be arsed to look….

I think it might be marmite on toast.
