No hob or oven just microwave, toaster and George forman (the grill of course)

[Inspirachion]

And difficult to wash up too.

We are renovating kitchen and have a gap of two weeks till appliances and sink are in.

What do we eat?

Or do we just move into a hotel?

Do you know of any nice healthy microwave meal ideas?
Thanks in advance. Ps
We usually try to follow slimming world type principals (mostly fresh cooked from scratch stuff like chilli or casseroles) with cooking so I feel a bit out of my depth without the gob and oven.

Lol ....hob not gob!

Can you borrow a slow cooker or buy one in the sales?

I have just spent 5 weeks without a kitchen and found it really useful.

Marking my place.....We'll be doing this next month.

a slow cooker would mean you could still do the chillis/bologanise etc and then use the george for grilling meat/fish and the microwave for those packets of steam veg and potatoes., or justchop and cover a bowl of veg with clingflim and microwave.
google microwave recipes for some inspiration.
moving into a hotel would mean eating out every night so not much chance of sticking to sw principles.
the odd takeaway wont hurt as its exceptional circumstances.
thats a long time for a kitchen revamp, think how much nicer your homecooked food will be after two weeks of microwave food.

couscous and grilled veg with chickpeas and grated cheese?
we lived mainly on couscous and tins pulses/tuna and raw veg with odd takeaway when mine was done.stressful but glad its all over.if id known what i know now wouldve made lots soups etc and frozen to microwave during the chaos

Some fab ideas here. Definitely worth investing in a slow cooker.

Oh thanks for your ideas. We rewired house just besides Christmas so my freezer stocks had to be used up then as no power for a couple of days.

House will be beautiful and we will be broke once done but anyway makes life interesting.

Cous cous recipe sounds nice I think, not sure if ds will go for it though. He would be happy with asda hot chicken every night but I know we'll be bored of that by Wednesday hence asking for help.

I've never tried a slow cooker - thought things needed 'browning' first which I won't be able to do without a hob? But will have a look at slow cooker recipes.

Am at my mums today cooking for the freezer but can't do regularly as a two hour drive.

Actually am looking forward to testing the gf grill to it's limit as it has been languishing in the cupboard for far too long

Stuffed potatoes.

Chop large potato in half. Prick with fork. Microwave for 10 mins. (10 mins per potato)
Grate carrot and grate courgette. Grate cheese. At this point you can add whatever takes your fancy, peas, chorizo, whatever.
Spoon out inside of potato into bowl add milk and butter and the other ingredients into mash and then fill hollowed potato. Dust with paprika.

Put in microwave for 5 mins.

saw it down in a cafe with bacon and blue cheese and adopted it. this was my student food that I still fall back on occasionally
