okay, i am beinng DRIVEN to meal-planning and am looking for un-faffy , quick recipes using cheap cuts that are DELICIOUS. because if someone tells me that tuna casserole or sausage stew is nice then i'll barf.

i'm fairly good on prepped stuff already, good recipes for chicken thigh curry, stews etc, it's more the instant-ish stuff i have difficulty with (apart from the ubiquitous pasta and pesto). although am always happy to hear any good tagine recipes and get better stews, curries etc.

however, what foods can we think of that are virtuous, delicious and quick to throw together, ladies? i'd rather the original recipe said 'takes 15 mins' iykwim, as opposed to 'fry onions in two mins etc' when you CAN'T.

oh, have thought of one.

carbonara. (although can we add veg apart from peas which we are sick of?)

How about some of the recipes on thread Especially the ones by SpawnChorus. She's a genius in the kitchen you know. And a ravishing minx too.
