to eat like a student when I am the only one in the house

[workshy]

can't be bothered to cook properly when there is only me in the house so last night I had tuna mayonnaise & sweetcorn on toast and tonight I'm having beans with some other stuff chucked in -on toast!

I would never eat like this when the dcs are at home so why to I revert to student eating habbits when I am by myself?

only me in this house and i had a cheese and tomato toasty for my tea, whats the point of doing a meal your probably not going to eat for one anything on toast is easy quick and tasty

I do the same thing when my DCs are out. Just can't be bothered. My mother is also on her own and she eats like a student too. Just can't be bothered.

Eggs on toast 365 days a year...if I didn't have to cater for anone else.

Y Cooking Spaghetti Meatballs and got distracted, Oh for eggs on toast...

yanbu - I eat toast and marmite when I'm on my own, maybe a yoghurt and an apple if I'm pushing the boat out!

Though the other night DP came home unexpectedly, so I suggested he too have toast and marmite. He really enjoyed it! I wonder why I bother with all that Jamie Cooks malarkey now...

YANBU, I do the same.

YANBU - cheese on toast for me in front of the t.v.

Oh yes, followed by a little snooze.

Yup, me too.

My guilty pleasure is Heinz tinned Ravioli on toast with parmesan cheese on top.

I could eat this every night and mostly do when home alone.

Otherwise the toast and marmite/vegemite, yoghurt and an apple sounds perfect!

I actually am not a fan of cooking takes too long. So since my son has left I have taken to eating microwaveable ready meals, I eat those Mon to Fri, Sat I have a pizza and Sunday I cook myself a roast.

Works for me.

YADNBU. I'd be more if you were going to the toruble of making a proper meal!

Was tempted tonight to eat like a student cos ds and dh wanted a chippy tea. Fancied fried egg and fried bread but gave in and joined them

Love eating like a student - brings back memories. The best ever for me is cod fish cakes, potato waffles and beans.

YANBU. To the outside world I try to portray image of sophisticated woman, excellent cook, dinner party host, massive foodie......truffle oil abounds in my kitchen etc........

but sometimes when alone I make a cheese and baked bean toastie and sometimes.....sometimes I eat findus cheese crispy pancakes and micro pizzas. I really like them

You are not alone. When my dh is on lates and only me to cook for I always have egg on toast or boiled egg and soldiers

Love Heinz Ravioli too!

Yanbu. I loathe cooking. If dh isn't around to cook for me, I eat cereal. Cheese on toast if I'm feeling extravagant.

Ah, catgirl you can't beat a good cheese and baked bean toastie.

Anyone else got the balls to owning up to curry pot noodles?

YANBU - fish finger sarnie in white bread with butter and tomato ketchup is my favourite retro student staple.

Yep me too.

This is why I was 1 and a half stone lighter when I was single

Fried egg sarnie with sauce yummy.

Chicken and mushroom pot noodle for me LineRunner

But I pick out the sweetcorn whilst its still dry......

DW's fave food when on her own is mashed potato!

YANBU - my husband works shifts and when he's on nights, its HP on toast for me all the way, sometimes with some crisps on the side for that bistro look

Spooky, catgirl. My DD does that.

Your DD is clearly a girl of taste and refinement :)
